Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the Week Ending March 13, 2011
Welcome to the Clean and Simple (or CAS, for short) Favorites Thread! This is the place to add your links to the beautiful CAS creations posted in the past week in the Gallery. Everyone is invited to participate...don't be shy! Add your links. Leave comments. It's all good!
Before I post my links, I'd like to thank Karen Dunbrook for starting last week's thread while I felt miserable. Thanks, Karen! You ROCK!
Here are my favorites from last week. It was an AWESOME week in the gallery.
moonrise posted a fabulous stationery set that I'm totally gonna copy!
Freshn'Sassy improvised her way into my favorites with her colorful imitation of a soon-to-be-released PTI set
stampinandrea showed off some amazing coloring skills on her Lil Bee's Big Day card
craftycrunchymama made me giggle with her delighful Almost Took the Plunge card
kittykya made a delighful CAS yet also artsy card with her Thank You grid
GimmeInk let her pretty felt focal point stand in lots of glorious white space to make a fab CAS card
DCinkit used color spectacularly on her silhouette card
biggan's ***** willow card is stunning in its sponged and textured goodness

YvonneAna posted a set of simply elegant cards using the negative diecut space absolutely perfectly
willysgirl used a simple image with simple matting that is simply wonderful
Now it's your turn! Please share your favorites and leave some love in the form of comments for the cards posted on this thread. Some of my favorites had very few comments. What a shame!
NOTE: I didn't censor biggan's description...it must be done automatically. Interesting that her gallery description of the card isn't censored. Hmmm.
If anyone needs a laugh or a 'pick me up', go to the CAS109 gallery from this past Monday....it was called Tickle Your Funny Bone....some really fun and funny cards there to see.
Thanks Susan, for mentioning my He is Risen card! I don't do CAS very often, so it's a thrill to be recongized here! Thanks also to Karen for letting me know!
Trish, thank you so much for mentioning my Felt Flower Showers. I consider CAS to be my nemesis and you certainly gave me a boost! : ) I hope your coming week is as wonderful as you made mine start out! Hugs, Sallie
WOW Diane....aka Fionna51...thanks so very much for the mention of my 'Luv Ya' card. I love that image and it makes me so happy....just like you made me feel.
This week's CAS challenge did make for such a fun gallery to go through. Hee Hee. I swear laughter is the best medicine.
I also have great news to share....my Marine son is back in the states safe from his deployment in Afghanistan. YAY!! I am so thankful.]
AWESOME!!!! Please tell him that Lt. Col. Raihala (ret., USAF) and Susan Raihala thank him and honor him for his service! And super big hugs to you, Marine Mom! Semper Fi!!!
Thank you fionna51 for the favorite, Thank you k dunbrook for the nice words, and Thank you LateBlossom for the kind, kind words...I have been an admirer of yours for a long time (I just can't seem to pull off your beautiful style of CAS)!
Where do I start....thank you so much for selecting my card and nugget purse It's always so fun to see the favs of the week, and an extra lil' bonus to see my card listed, so thank you!
Congrats on the CAS DT! You so rock it every week, and I can't wait to see more of your style - fun times ahead
But most of all I am so, so, so very happy to hear about your son's safe return! Such a blessing to have him home, we appreciate his sacrifices and service to our country!
Thanks, Trish, for the shout-out on my African silhouette card!! And a big thanks to Karen for letting me know. You both are big sweeties!!!
