Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the week ending June 30, 2013

[momof5sons]

Summer surely has arrived in the Northern Hemisphere! I hope that you are all taking some time to stroll in the (very cool) galleries to beat the heat. So much to enjoy and inspire...here are a few of my CAS favorites posted by you talented stampers:

susanbri's Inspired Wreath packs a lot of detail in the cleanest of layouts
...and inspired Loll Thompson's beautiful Welcome Christmas
bon2stamp's First Christmas is a delight in neutrals
Lionsmane's Round 5 uses a fun image in a color twist
hmmm...are we all wishing for snow???
Hamiltongal's Colorful Smiles is a happy take on the inspiration photo
hobbydujour's Koi is serene simplicity
kthaman's Gold Anniversary is quietly elegant
Heather T does amazingly achieve Early Light
Versamom's beautiful coloring had me at Hello
k dunbrook's Sending You a Posey is happy in image, color and word
Beate, her talent and her card are very Cherished
Arizona Maine arranged diecuts artfully in Happy 4th
4beccaw's Stars & Stripes (and it's companion card) do the US proud
and finally - Biggan's Celebrate inspires calm festivities.

I'd like to wish my Canadian friends a Happy Canada Day, and stampers in the USA a wonderful Independence Day...have a fun, safe and peaceful holiday, all!

Marie, it was so kind of you to list my card as one of your favorites. I truly appreciate it since I find CAS a harder style to do. Kare, thanks for taking the time to let me know...I appreciate that too. Hugs, Sallie
