CAS Game #138 - Along The Edge + Optional Twist Sewing

Hi! It's time for a new challenge here at AAA Cards.

We'd like to see your CAS cards have a focal element along the edge. And please remember that we love empty white space that is smooth unpatterned and untextured.

If you'd like to twist with us then the sewing can be real or faux.

We'll pick a top winner and some runners up!

It could be you!

CAS Game #137 - Made In Minutes + Optional Twist Dry Embossing

Hi!

Welcome to the new challenge here at AAA Cards. For the next fortnight we'd like you to be quick when creating your CAS cards.

But don't panic, you can gather your supplies and ideas together taking your time. Once that's all sorted we'd like your card to be created in minutes, we're saying 30, but 15 or less would be even better. The idea is that with time at a premium your card should be simple enough to create quickly.

Remember the S in CAS means SIMPLE!

We'll pick a top winner and some runners up!

It could be you!

Our sponsor this fortnight is Heffy Doodle for a £25 voucher to their shop.

Thank you Heffy Doodle!

As well as the 1st place prize from our sponsor we also offer the winner the chance to be a Guest Designer for a future AAA Cards Challenge.

Our Guest Designer for this challenge is Kateryna. She is one of our instagram followers and linked up her winning card from there. Do go visit her instagram stream and leave her some love.

A couple of goodbyes to long serving members of the AAA Cards DT

Cheryl has needed to step down as her busy life and family commitments are preventing her from getting into her craft space at the moment. Thanks for all your inspiration and hard work at AAA Cards. We will miss you, but wish you luck and happiness for your future.

Elaine
And I'm sad to say this will be Elaine's last gig as an AAA Cards DT member. Sometimes life just gets too complicated and crafting has to take a bit of a back seat. We're sorry to see you go Elaine and wish you all the best for the future.

And here are the speedy CAS cards from the rest of the DT. It would be lovely if you visited our blogs and left us some love!
