Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for Week Ending SATURDAY, October 6,2018
October already and I'm starting to see some beautiful Fall color popping out on the maples I pass on my way to/from work. The temperatures are all over the map making it a challenge to know how to dress. But I do love the beauty of Fall and the crispness after the heat of summer.
Looking through the Gallery this week, I feel like it has really been a good week for CAS cardmakers this week - so many wonderful cards posted. Here are a few of the ones that caught my eye:
Simple Thank You by PeonySnail*** NEW-TO-ME STAMPER *** Love the look of this sweet little flower and sentiment on a black shimmery canvas.
Now it's your turn. Show me what CAS beauties you uncovered this week. If you have some non-CAS favorites, I encourage you to post them over on this week's Favorites thread.
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.

Oh Nancy thank you for the shout out! So appreciated! I actually thought of you when I made this card. When we were on the DD team I remember those amazing food cards you made! So I thought if Nancy were making these jars she would figure out a way to fill them with very real looking dill pickles!
Thanks Nancy, Diane and Susan for including my leaf card in your list this week and thanks Karen for letting me know! It made my day! Have a wonderful week everyone.

Happy stamping to all you Splitcoasters who inspire me each day!
Thank you so very much, Susan (LoveRibbons) for including my Good Fortune card as one of your favorites! I truly appreciate it. And, thank you, Karen for the notification.
Thank you Miss Boo for including my card "Fluttering By" as a CAS favourite. What an honour - seeing that I have so much trouble with keeping things CAS at times - great encouragement
This thank you is so late in being expressed, but with Mom's passing and then the busy holiday season I just didn't have time to follow-up on saying how much I appreciated Angela selecting my Three Cupcakes Happy Birthday card as one of her CAS Favorites for the week. It meant so much!
