CAS (Clean and Simple) Favorites for the week ending Sunday, February 8, 2015
Happy birthday to my son! And my son-in-law! And my friend's husband! All in one day. Not only that, but I have 3 more birthdays and valentines day in the next 8 days. Great time for card inspiration!
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.

Thanks so much Heather (Heather T) for including my Valentine on your list. It is always an honor, but truly blows me away when mentioned by one of my stamping idols! Thanks, too, to Karen for sharing the happy news!
Didn't seem to have a lot of gallery gazing time this week, but there were still some CAS beauties that made it into my favorites...
CAS310, Valentine Mail by k dunbrook Love the crisp look of Karen's card and the visual interest she gave it with the asymmetric layout and the debossed lines.
F4A259 In my Heart by beesmom Love the way Maura's subtle snowbanks ground the scene, while still allowing her to layer her large sentiment. Perfect balance!
With Love by Loll Thompson Love the amount of elegance the gold embossing and shimmery heart give Loll's lovely card.
Thank you, thank you to Heather T, Debbie (swldebbie)and tessaduck (Brenda) for choosing one of my cards as a CAS favorite - I'm a CAS girl at heart, so this means a lot to me.!
