Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for Week Ending SATURDAY, May 5, 2018
Hi, all -
Can you believe we're already through 1/3 of the year already? Sheesh! Where did the time go? But so happy that the snow FINALLY seems to have exited the area and it feels and acts like Spring.
I was on vacation last week, so not in the Gallery as much as usual. But there were still a few CAS beauties that caught my eye when I did have a chance to take a quick peek.
Fall Floral by Christy S.**** NEW-TO-ME-STAMPER **** I really liked the rustic feel the kraft base and faded looking stamping gave to this card.
CAS Kid Duo by housesbuiltofcards Heather's kid duo couldn't be any cuter. I especially liked the black thought bubble with the white script. It adds interest and really makes the sentiment pop.
Fiercely Awesome by kthaman Sometimes it is the small things that catch your eye. Yes, Karen's critter is absolutely adorable, and her colors happy. But it was her awesome clouds that caught my eye - done perfectly - not too many, not too few.
So now it's your turn to let me know which CAS creations caught YOUR eye this week. If you also have some non-CAS favorites, we encourage you to share them over on this week's (non-CAS) Favorites thread.
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.
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.

Thanks so much Diane for mentioning my card and thanks to Karen for letting me know. It's been a while since I posted my cards here at SCS but this is where I "started" and I'm going to try and be more consistent about posting in the gallery here.
