Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the week ending Saturday, July 25, 2020
I've had a frustrating two weeks of computer problems and it resulted in me having to buy a new computer, wait for a tech savvy friend to come over and help me set it up, and then try and get used to all the little differences in the new one. So I haven't been able to post any cards but did look through the CAS gallery this evening to spot some favourites to start this thread with. My apologies for not commenting on them, but please know how much I liked them!!
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.
* Uncluttered
* lots of white or open space
* one main focal point
--------------------------------
...and they should be from the past week.
If
you have favorites to share that don't fit as Clean and Simple, we
encourage you to share those favorites in the Weekly Favorites Thread.
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 this is your first time being mentioned in this thread or you have a new blog we have blog badges found here in this post.
Need help linking your Favorites? Follow these steps:
1. Load this week's Favorites thread in your first browser tab. Scroll down and click the Go Advanced button.
2. Open a second tab (or a separate window). Go to the Gallery and click on "My Favorites."
3. Click on a card you have saved. At the top, highlight the web address. Hit Ctrl+C to copy.
4.
Switch back to the first tab. Type the cardmaker's SCS name, add a
couple of spaces and hit Ctrl+V to paste your link there. Hit Enter
twice to add a blank line.
5. Repeat as many times as needed for all your links.
6. Click the Preview Post button and check that your links work. Then click the Submit Reply button.

Oh, Susan - I feel your frustration. Computer issues are the worst! Okay, maybe not THE worst, but super aggravating, just the same. In any case, thank you so much for including my HIPPO BIRD-DAY TO EWE card on your list. It just made my evening.
Well Susan, so sorry to hear about your computer problems. They can happen out of the blue and are so frustrating to try and figure them all out.
I hope you enjoy your new computer and get used to the new learning curve quickly.
Thanks, Susan for starting the thread this week. I would like to thank Lisa for mentioning my card, and for Karen letting me know. Happy dance here. Hugs
Lisa (Shoe Girl), if I had a tail it would be wagging big time right now. Thanks so much for including my card Tail Wags and Wet Kisses on your list this week. I am thrilled. And, Karen, thanks for the happy mail.
THANK YOU LINDA, for including my card, "Cure for Fear... Be Still!" I am SO HONORED & TOTALLY SURPRISED!!! (I thought the Favorites/CAS Favorites were shut down with all the bugs in the system!) You have DEFIANTLY put a SMILE on my face today!!! HUGS DEAR FRIEND!!!! ;)<3
Thank you, Susan, for including one of my cards in your list of favorites this week! It always puts a smile on my face. Hugs and Blessings to you and sweet Karen for always letting us know the Happy News~

Huge thanks to Linda (Holstein) for listing my card , Three Snowmen, Maybe, in the favorites today. It is so appreciated and a big thank you to Karen for the notification. You are so appreciated, also.
Oh, what a day! I see no way to get my faves listed. Too much going on today and tomorrow. My life has been upside down this weekend. But, I sure saw a lot of beauties.

So sorry, Susan, that you had to deal with computer issues. Man, I dread having to replace this computer (we just replaced the desktop, but my laptop is about 7 or 8 years old). It's giving me flickering screen whenever I open it.
Thankfully no signs of another bad hard disk though. (((Hugs)))
Thank you Holstein and fionna51 for the "Shout out" and k dunbrook for the good news. Always an honor to get some SCS love. I hope to be back with a list of my favorites!

So sorry this is late, I didn't see as many cards this past week, just a busy one.
Does anyone know if/when the Favorites of the week will be returning? I have some favorites that are not CAS that I'd like to recognize too but they don't fit here...
Again, my apologies for sending in these CAS Favorites late. I look forward to checking out the CAS Favorites others have listed, and I hope that you all have a very safe, healthy, and enjoyable week.
Thanks so much to those who send out the notifications, I appreciate the work you do so very much!!!
