Addicted to CAS Challenge #168 - Style


Hello and welcome to the brand new challenge at Addicted to CAS, hosted by Raga.
Here's her code word:




For my card I used an Angie's girl from Unity, Hero Arts You're So Lovely, GKD Amalgam ink, and Spectrum Noir pastel markers.  Supplies are linked below.

To keep it CAS, I colored very sparingly and in very light colors, especially since the image is so large.  If you have a large image, sometimes using fewer and lighter colors keeps the white space more open looking.  It's hard not to go in and add shading or more color, but the "simple" part of clean and simple can keep you from adding more and more and eventually not having a CAS card at all!
Restraint is the key when trying to keep it CAS.

Here's a few reminders to help keep it CAS:


And here's another look at my CAS Style card:

  6. Angie, this card brought back memories from school. I used to draw figures like this during classes that were too boring... and I had forgotten all about them until I saw your fabulous card. Wonderful image and I love how you paired back the coloring. Gorgeous
