Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the week ending May 13, 2012
Good morning, and Happy Mother's Day to all mothers!
Also, welcome to the CAS favorites thread. This is where you have the opportunity to recognize those lovely CAS cards that you have put in your favorites folder this week.
So, what does it mean to be Clean and Simple? It's all about the design.
* Uncluttered
* lots of white or open space
* one main focal point
Now...here's some of what I favorited this week...

Thanks, Diane(fionna51), for listing my card as one of your favorites......and thank you, Marie, for notifying me. I truly appreciate it. Happy Mother's Day to all honorees. Hugs, Sallie
I had a really long list of favourites this week so am glad Trish and Diane already mentioned some of them. Here are the ones that haven't been mentioned yet:
Happy Mother's Day everyone!
Thank you Trish for including my Happy Winter card in your list of talented faves. I am honored. MWAH. I am under the weather and this sure cheered me up!
WOW - Thanks Loll for mentioning my card. CAS is a bit outside of my comfort zone, so this mention has very special meaning for me. I'm so glad you liked it. Happy Mother's Day to all you U.S. ladies!
Thanks Diane and Lisa for the love on my "For You" card! This made my day!!!! Yay!!!!

Marie, I was wondering how you were keeping up with posting and notifying everyone. Even on Mothers Day! Thanks for your dedication and I hope you are enjoying yourself- mimosas and all!
A big thanks to Susan for mentioning my 'Sending Graduation Congrats'. It makes me very happy and it was an easy card.
Thanks to Marie for alerting me.
Hope all mothers are having a wonderful day.

Trish, I am so happy that my card Imagine in Color made your list. I had little time to stamp this week, so this made me so happy. Thank you. Happy Mother's Day to all!
Oh my goodness - Loll, you've totally made my day by listing two of my cards on your favourites list! Thank you so much! Marie, thanks so much for notifying me.

SusanBri- thanks so much for acknowledging my Mother's Day Multicolor card. It was really an experiment so I'm tickled that anyone liked it. Thank you.
Also, a big thanks to Lisa Lara for mentioning my 'Frogs Are Our Friends' card. It really lifts my day as I couldn't be with my boy on Mother's Day.
Thanks again to Marie(MM to me) for giving me the good news.

Every time I do the notifications for this thread I gain new gratitude to Karen for her dedication to that task. Feel better soon, dear Karen. Now that I am caught up I feel like Christmas eve...I can finally breathe and kiss DH...giving a little love to these cards that haven't yet been mentioned:
justwritedesigns Engagement Wishes makes treasure of what many would trash
deconstructingjen brought so many things to the table but still kept it clean in her Thank You card
DandI93 didn't have a purpose for her Do ya Dig...I found it fun and wonderful
To me, the extra scoring took AFrenchAccent's Just for You from pretty to extraordinary
I love the placement of stampinandrea's focal point in her Mother's Day Bouquet
I am an easy mark for "construction" on cards and nwilliams6's Birthday Humor scored a bullseye
jacynthe's You are a Treat brought smiles
A fresh flower and complementary border stole my heart in AndreaEwan's Mother's Day
Hobbydujour's Sophisticated Chic is delightful
hskelly's Thank You is a clean but packs a punch
Thank you so much to all who have posted their cards and/or shared their faves...your inspiration is our lifeblood. Enjoy your Mother's Day US friends and have a peaceful week.

Thanks so much Marie...for your kind words and the mention of my CAS Mother's Day Wish card here. My cards tend to be Distressed and Complicated (DAC) so when I make it into the CAS favorites, it's extra special! Thanks again!
