Welcome to the best CAS of 2022 thread. Here's where you can show us your absolute favourites from the past year. Please make sure they are "clean and simple" cards. Sadly the thread for the regular favourites is no longer running.
It's really hard to pare mine down to a manageable list as there have been so many wonderful CAS cards this past year. I'm going to get the thread going with these few but I'll be back with the rest of my list.
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.
Clean and Simple design is:
* Uncluttered,
* has lots of white or open space, and
* has one main focal point.
--------------------------------
...and they should be from the past year...Jan 1 thru Dec 31.
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 Forums at Splitcoaststampers.

WT925 Butterfly by card crazy at Splitcoaststampers. I probably have more from Denise than anyone else, this is the one I've picked as my top favourite even though it doesn't showcase her wonderful use of dies.

First, let me admit I've been a member of SCS since 2007 and I never knew there was a favorites of the year thread before.
Secondly, can I point out how amazing Lisa (Shoe Girl) is -- not only does she have a huge list of favorites, but she even alphabetized them. Thank you, Lisa, for including my little coffee card among some of the truly wonderful cards that were posted in 2022. I'm honored
