Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the week ending Saturday, December 9, 2017
Welcome...and I hope you are having a great December!
I just have to ask. Have you started (or finished) your Christmas cards?
We're glad you are here, and glad that you love to spread love around to all the CAS cardmakers here on SCS. This week's thread features creations from last Sunday, December 3, thru tonight, Saturday, December 9.
If you have favorites that are not CAS, be sure to share them on the Favorites thread.
And before I share my favorites with you, I want to let you know that the CAS FAVORITES OF THE YEAR is coming! We start that thread on January 1 and I want to encourage you to be joining in for that fun. We will also post each and every one of your favorites on a Pinterest Board for the year. You might want to start preparing, and here's some suggestions.
...Start a secret board on Pinterest and collect your faves for the year there.
...Start a text file document on your computer and save the links.
...Send yourself a private message on SCS with the links.
Now, here's my clean and simple favorites from this week.
This thread is open to everyone and is a great way to recognize the work of SCS's many talented CAS artists.
There are really only two "rules" here on the thread:
The Gallery posts you link to should be in the CAS style...
-------------------------------- And 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
--------------------------------
...and they should be from the past week.
Did you find your way to this thread because someone listed one of YOUR creations as a favorite? In addition to saying thank you, we encourage you to pay that smile you're probably wearing right now forward by sharing a few of the cards/projects YOU favorite-ed this week.
If this is your first time being mentioned in this thread or you have a new blog we have blog badges found here in this post.
