CAS (Clean and Simple) Favorites for Week Ending 1/24/16
Wow -- cannot believe the end of January only a week away - where DOES the time go? Hope those of you on the East Coast were able to get some crafty time in on this massively snowy weekend. It's sooooo much more fun than shoveling (and shoveling and...) And, if you DID have to go out and clear the snow, I hope when you came in to warm up, you were able to relax with some Gallery gazing as there sure were some wonderful CAS creations added this week.
Here are some that I found...
Bold Speech Bubble Birthday card by Jacquie J I always love when I see a CAS card that isn't the normal mostly white background. Jacquie did a great job using dies and embossing folders to add lots of interest and texture while keeping the design CAS.
CAS360 - Snowy Valentine by T. Joy I like how Tricia used white embellishments to break up some of the white background without compromising the CAS design.
Pieced Together with Love by basement stamper I love how Vicki's gold scripty die works with the rest of her card. Not a combination I would have expected to "work" - and yet, seeing this card, I realized, it really works quite well!
WT567 Cold by Biggan Birgit's card just reminded me of the sheer enjoyment a child feels dancing and playing out in the snow.
Love Is You & Me by Bar I really like the addition of the purple on Barbara's card. Really steps it up a notch.
IC529 Love in Paris by artystamper I love how Julia flipped the more common "black on white, with a pop of red" to make her card "white on black with a pop of red."

Big thanks to Kia and Brenda for picking my cards as CAS favorites.....this honor is special as I still struggle a bit with CAS cards.....I am getting better at it, but always nice to get encouragement when you are working out of your comfort zone....hugs to both of you
Thanks so much to Maura(beesmom) for mentioning my color challenge card as a CAS favorite this week. And Karen, I'm so impressed with your dedication to letting us know about these honors!
I had a HARD time narrowing down my favorites because this has been a FABULOUS week on SCS. Since I'm on vacation I had more time to browse the wonderful galleries. These are the ones I especially loved:
Many thanks, Audrie, for choosing 2 of my cards this past week - puts a smile on my face for sure!!!
And thanks to you, Karen for all your time in sending happy mail!
Thanks, Diane, for the mention! So appreciated! And your timing could not have been better - I've been in meeting after meeting pretty much all week - such a pick-me-up to find Karen's happy mail notification.
