Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for Week Ending January 3, 2009
Happy New Year, CAS Fans!!!
All are invited to post links their clean-and-simple favorites from the gallery the past week on this thread. Come on! Don't be shy!!!!
I'll get us started with these amazing CAS beauties:
lauraos used dp with impact in her Simple Heart card
Aimes took on Nichole Heady's scrap challenge with this stunner
star went soft and serene with her soft suede scene
ravengirl was on a roll this week, but her Shamefully Easy card totally blew me away
jesslundahl kept trying and came up with an irresistibly adorable CAS card with a single felt flower; also, check out her Christmas scrapbook page, which totally inspires me to get back to scrapping!
mjw's patience paid off with this blooming crystal effects card
biggan makes the list (again!) with her exquisite relax card...advice I bet we all could take right now!
krystie lee is back with A Muse's up-coming release and a totally adorable Fishing for Love card; her Stuck on You jellyfish card is equally amazing
Tilly made a whole set of OLC Pocket Silhouette cards that are so beautifully colorful
angelladcrockett used gold ghimmer mist to make a stunning OLC
peebsmama cut up an old calendar to make a whole set of cute photo notecards; visit her blog to see the rest!
hobbywoman made a cheerfully spring-y thank you card
ctorina made a fabulously textured CAS birthday card
hskelly posted a simply stunning OLC valentine with the perfect little bit of bling
lisa lara made a totally fun set of OLC notecards
StampGroover posted a dramatically festive New Year's card
happy2stamp4ever used a very clean base to make her blinged Christmas tree shine
Craft Fanatic used rich, bright colors, satin ribbon, and EP for her fab thank you set
jovialjudi used embossed squares and a touch of teal to make a beautifully elegant card
mmbc colored her simple card FABULOUSLY to give her simple card huge impact
KY Southern Belle's lavender card is simply lovely
stampingout used dp and ribbon to make a fun card for a teacher
CAKath let her beautiful Christmas stamp image shine in a simple OLC that totally rocks
ravengirl did it again with her Disney shower-curtain-inspired card
Now, it's your turn!!! Please share your favorites with the rest of us so we can see what we missed! |

Happy New Year, Karen! Thanks so much for mentioning my Winter Mittens card.
I wish I had CAS favorites to share, but I had limited time in the gallery this week. Can't wait to check the cards already listed!

I loved the tiny frame on this card by Biggan
Three of my favorites this week were by tankgrl, but they all use a new SU! set that's not released yet, so I'll try to remember to post them next week once the new stuff goes live
(Sorry for the tease! Is that bad? I don't know protocol on this one....)
There's great stuff in other people's posts, too -- what a bunch of talented folks!! |

Thank you Susan and Krista for mentioning my card - it was the first one I've made in weeks - I 've had a hard time getting back into stamping so this mention means so much to me and is so encouraging! Happy new year to everyone!

Thank you so much Susan (LateBlossom) for mentioning my Devoted Friend card as one of your favorites! I'm so honored. I am going to make it a habit to contribute to this thread to showcase CAS cards this year.
I haven't had too much gallery cruising time for the past few weeks but a few did catch my eye that I'd like to share with you.
HamiltonGal FS151 CASEing SmilynStef. Love the colors, layout and simplicity of this stunning card.
BBCrazy Vintage Vogue Medallion. Great colors and design.
SunnyinMontana Four Square Thanks. This is a gift set with matching boxes and everything. Very CAS and cool.
Blessings by Latisha Yoast. I'm a huge fan of her work. Great CAS card and so many possibilities with this one. |

Wow!!! Thank you SO very much for the mention in this list BTW...Lorettal is a good friend and my absolute crafting mentor. The card I made is 98.99% cased from someone else (maryloves2stamp) and I'm grateful for her creativity.
My scrap heap has been growing in leaps and bounds lately, so I've been making most cards in multiples to use up supplies and minimize scraps.
Thanks again for including me on this list! Too cool __________________ *~*~Arleen~*~*

A HUGE thank you to Susan for mentioning my VERY simple (and steal of a deal, lol) card in the OP! You just made my day!! Thank you also, to Karen, who let me know it was here in the thread - you made my day, too!
I have a few faves I had saved for the week...forgive me if they are repeats of others.
Heather T made two GORGEOUS Snowscape TY cards HERE and HERE...wow!
ravengirl's suuuper easy/fun idea HERE is sure to be cased by me! lol
jesslundahl's simple blossom card HERE using new SU product is simply adorable!
T.Joy painted a picturesque and peaceful scene HERE that took my breath away...
LateBlossom's gorgeous watercolored set of three cards captured my attention...and reminded me of a forgotten technique, too! HERE's just one of them...but I love them all!
LateBlossom's birthday cupcake card HERE is simply delicious!! Oh, how I've wanted that stamp forevah, and Susan just made me want it even more! lol |
