Thank you!


***********************************************



What is CAS?
CAS is an acronym for Clean and Simple.

It's all about the design.
* not the technique
* not the tools
* not the embellishments

It's all about the design.
* Uncluttered
* lots of white or open space
* one main focal point

It's all about the design.

Clean & Simple

I'm not a big fan of "spotlighting"....maybe because I don't do it too well. Anyway, I think I did it very minimally today. Thanks for the challenge, Jen,

Ok, this isn't working either. Hopefully you will find it in the CAS164 gallery.
