thanks so much susan for mentioning my card; it was thrown together quickly out of desperation because it was my third attempt at casing queen for the day sabrina, cook22. and thanks to karen for letting me know.
Susan, thanks so much for mentioning my whatev card. I'm glad it could provide you a laugh this week.
I found quite a few favorites this week to share. That CAS cake-inspiration challenge made for some fabulous cards!
fionna51 Love the use of white panels to add clean and simple interest.
va.sunshine I can taste the chocolate icing just by looking at this card!
dahlhousedesigns I love it so much, I cased the layout the very same day. And that one little perfect bow...swoon!
ccbooboo Don't you hate it when you post a card, and then look in the gallery and find someone has already done it, only a much better version? Fortunately the pinks and reds on here are so lovely, I won't hold it against Carrie.
LilLuvsStampin No way can you make a CAS card using three different types of bold patterned paper, a handmade flower, and 15 inches of ribbon. Or can you...?
craftycaro Thousands of square lattice folders will be inked by nightfall after seeing this stunner.
NancyK. Nancy doesn't know what she's talking about, I think this is still a fabulous CAS card! (okay...maybe CAS+) I love the white line she drew in the score marks!
Thanks so much to Susan for mentioning my card and Karen for always being so kind to let us know!!
You girls put a big smile on my face today!!! :mrgreen:

Meg,
We must think alike and it is awfully sweet of you to give my card such high praise. I equally liked yours as well. It is so much fun to stamp free form! Thanks for brightening my day.

Oh Meg - you are so sweet! Thanks for mentioning my card - it was a real labor of love - with the emphasis on labor!!
Thank you Diane (Fionna51) for the shout out - I hadn't even labelled that one as CAS! Thanks as ever to Karen too for never failing to comment and let us know there's a sweet compliment here for us

Thank you Susan (LateBlossom) I've been on vacation all week and just got back and was thrilled to see my flower notecards listed in the CAS favorites this week. I appreciate the mention, it's the perfect ending to a great week in Florida.
A special thank you to Karen for always letting us know, Hugs to both,
Thanks for mentioning my card Susan- you made my day! I'm so behind on my gallery browsing, but you all brought smiles on my face with your lovely comments- so thank you!
Welcome home, Susan! Hope you had a great vacation!
Thanks to everyone for the great gallery this week.
Thanks so much for mentioning my card this week, what a great boost of confidence for this usually very busy, non CAS cardmaker! Thanks also to Karen for bringing this thread to my attention!

It's been a crazy week here too! I finally am going through emails from Tuesday, and I'm thrilled to find one leading me from a card comment from Karen to this thread! Thanks so much, Heather, for mentioning my little patriotic card, and to Karen for letting me know! What a sweet surprise!
