Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the week ending Saturday, October 13, 2018
I'm expecting to see a bunch of snow in the morning. And bitter cold temps tomorrow night. But a big mug of chai sure helped while I was watching National Treasure tonight!
Meanwhile, the gallery gave me a bunch of beautiful cards for my favorites folder...
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.
If you have favorites to share that don't fit as Clean and Simple, we encourage you to share those favorites in the regular favorites thread.
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.
I have a couple...I wasn't quite sure whether to list Sandie's here or on the other thread but put it here. I had a similar quandary over one from Jen which I ended up leaving on my other list.
Thank you Diane for starting the thread this week. Thank you Karen for volunteering to send the happy mail to the very talented CAS designers on this thread. We really appreciate you taking the time.
Aw, Jen, thanks for mentioning two of my cards! What a great way to start my week!!
I had a couple - but only because I had a show running at my theatre and haven't been on much! There are some amazing beauties out there, but these are mine for now!
Diane, thank you so much for including my Thankful Foliage card - I'm honoured.
I've been away on vacation for two weeks so wasn't able to post any favourites - it's good to be back doing it, and I intend to spend a quiet bit of time checking out the CAS Favourites from the two weeks I missed. But meanwhile, here are some I spotted from the past week:

Thank you Janine for mention of my Christmas Cat card, it’s always fun to see what other folk consider CAS (I didn’t put that one in the CAS camp myself). Thank you to Karen for tireless work on gallery notifications too!
Thank you Brenda, Michelle, and Heather, for including my Fall Birthday Wishes card on your favorites lists this week. The harvest mice and I really appreciate it.
Thank you to Susan for mentioning my leaf card this week and to Karen for letting me know. I'm glad I looked at some of the other faves, because I wanted to add Donna's.
Many thanks to Debbie (swldebbie) for including my Painted Harvest card in your list of CAS favorites this week! You made my day!! And thank you to Karen (k dunbrook) for sending me the happy mail!
