Welcome to my FAVORITE thread of the year! (Yes, the pun is intended! Ha!)
The Best of 2019...Clean and Simple style!
Everyone is invited to participate...and share what you found to be your Clean and Simple "favorite of favorites". You can share anytime in the next few weeks or so. The thread stays "stickied" in the Favorites sub-forum all year AND we post those favorites on a Pinterest board. I'll add the link when I have it.
I hope you enjoy my collection of favorites for 2019. As usual, I had a really hard time selecting what to share, and I want to include as many of you as I can. So I hope you love this list! It sure has some absolutely stunning cards in it.

This Annual thread is open to everyone and is a great way to recognize what you consider the "best of the best" from 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 YEAR.
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 YEAR.
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.

This is always a tough one, pulling together those best of lists from all those you chose in the last year. My non CAS is a long one, which will appear at the weekend, but this one is quite small. Happy New Year to all and hoping 2020 will be a creative one.
These are always the most difficult lists to compile! I am sure to miss one that stood out to me but here are a few that caught my eye as I searched over 1600 favorites I saved over this past year.
Thank you to Karen for notifying all year long. Thank you to the CAS team for your kind comments and for all you do at SCS!
OOOPS! I posted this before I realized I don't have all my CAS favorites on here. So I will be back with another list.
I am so honored and thankful to have my cards added to the 2019 favorites list. Thank you so much Diane, Janine, Carla and Amy. You have made my day!!
