Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the week ending Saturday, February 11, 2023
Is it really 2023? It's hard to believe!
Welcome to the weekly Clean and Simple Favorites thread. This is the place for anyone to share cards you put in your favorites that are Clean and Simple. Since there's lots of new people here on SCS, I'll mention what Clean and Simple is.
This is a design principle. If you think about the ads that really cause you to take notice, there's a few features that they all have. First, there's one place that your eye goes to...that's one focal point. Second, there's some open, un-patterned space that draws attention to the focal point...that's called white space, but it isn't necessarily always white. And third, it's uncluttered.
So, what did you add to your favorites this past week? I added a few to mine...
This thread is open to everyone and is a great way to recognize the work of 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 week.
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 week.
If you have favorites that don't fit the Clean and Simple thread, we encourage you to share them on the regular Favorites thread.
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.
