Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the week ending July 13, 2014
Hope you've had a great week!
This thread is for you to share the Clean and Simple cards from the gallery that you favorited this week. It's for everyone to share so jump in and join us!
I have a substantial number of favorites this week, including a number of lovely CAS cards. Here's some:
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.

Here are my CAS favorites from this past week. Some have been mentioned, but I'll mention again -- everyone likes to hear from Karen on a Sunday right?
Appreciate by BeckyTE LOVE this card! I especially like the party lights made out of sequins. So fun!
Mrs. Noofy Inspired by jasonw1 The great texture and masculine feel of Peggy's card really caught my attention.
Pastel Blooms by Angelnorth I fell in love with the soft pastel look of this floral beauty.
Watercolor for Karen by Arizona Maine OMG...can you say GORGEOUS??? Angela's watercolored flowers would lead you to believe she is a professional watercolor artist. Seriously!
Bloom with Hope by SandiMac Perfectly balanced freestyle card. So not my personal style, but this beauty is seriously tempting me to try it.
Great Day by k dunbrook I soooooooooooooo want to CASE this one!
Christmas in July #6 by nancyt Love! A favorite color combo, polka dots, a great layout and a cutie patootie snowman -- how could this one not jump into my favorites?
Summer Sunset by harriettb *** NEW TO ME STAMPER *** These sunsets are so beautifully vibrant. Reminds me of sunsets in Sedona.
So Proud! by fionna51's grandkids Just had to recognized this one by these 2 budding artists! Cute!!
Sweet Baby Thank You by kardulove *** NEW TO ME STAMPER *** This little bear, surrounded by lots of pretty pink embossed dots, could not be sweeter.

Thank you so much for including me! And I had a little smile with the "a new-to-me stamper" you put beside my name . Isn't it fun when we discover new stampers? And thanks to Karen for letting me know. I didn't even know about this CAS section - LOL. Have a wonderful day!
