Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the week ending October 14, 2012
Aaaack! Mutter, mutter, mutter. Grumble, grumble.
I had this thread all finished. Just going to put colors on the fonts and my browser shut down because of a "malicious add-on or something else". Just one browser window, not all four. Grumble. Now I need to start over. Grumble.
Okay.
Good morning! I just love fall. Love the colors, the blustery weather. Just don't love the gloomy skies for photographing all the HYCCT cards I have been making.
This is the thread where everyone shares the lovely CAS creations that they have favorited this week. I have some great cards in my favorites folder...and I'm sure you do too. Everyone can share, please join in the fun!
------------------------
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

Thanks so much Brenda (tessaduck) for adding my card here! I'm always honored to be mentioned in this thread as I really struggle with CAS...gotta keep my mitts off!
Thanks also to sweet Karen...I really appreciate you letting me know my card was listed here!
Have a great Sunday, everyone~!
I didn't have much time for stamping or gallery browsing this past week as I've been involved in setting up the Apple Festival at our local botanical garden - it's a major fundraiser. And wouldn't you know it, our dry weather came to an end and it's pouring with rain all weekend. So after I list my favourites, I'm off to work outdoors at the festival in the pouring rain all day! I'd rather be making cards for sure!
Thanks so much tessaduck for mentioning my Simply Nicole card. It means a lot to me because I struggle so much with CAS cards! Thanks to Karen for letting me know!
Here are the cas cards I favorited last week.....
I stumbled upon this CAS beauty by someone I was unfamiliar with and just had to post this card. Her gallery is quite amazing. She does the most awesome chalking although not on this card...

Thanks fairsinger for mentioning my Quick Plaid Christmas...I think I'll be doing a version of this for my cards this year as I have a whole pack of the same plaid paper.
Oh, Lisa! Thanks so much for calling out my "Meet Me Under the Moon" card as one of your favorites. It's been a stormy, lazy Sunday and you just totally brightened it up!
