CAS (Clean and Simple) Favorites for Week Ending November 25, 2017

[susanbri]

Christmas is fast approaching and lots of you are making beautiful Christmas cards. And those of you who celebrated American Thanksgiving have made some wonderful "thankful" cards. So lots to choose from!

We would love to have you share your CAS Favorites this week. If you have favorites that are not CAS we would urge you to share your favorites at the regular Favorites thread.

Here are my Clean and Simple Favourites from the past 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.

Need help linking your Favorites? Follow these steps:

1. Load this week's Favorites thread in your first browser tab. Scroll down and click the Go Advanced button.

2. Open a second tab (or a separate window). Go to the Gallery and click on "My Favorites."

3. Click on a card you have saved. At the top, highlight the web address. Hit Ctrl+C to copy.

4. Switch back to the first tab. Type the cardmaker's SCS name, add a couple of spaces and hit Ctrl+V to paste your link there. Hit Enter twice to add a blank line.

5. Repeat as many times as needed for all your links.

6. Click the Preview Post button and check that your links work. Then click the Submit Reply button.

THANK YOU susanbri for picking my card, Gather Together, for your favorites this week!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! And thank you also to Karen (k dunbrook) for letting me know I made the list!!!!
