Clean and Simple (CAS) Favorites for the week ending Saturday, September 12, 2020

[fionna51]

Here's my favorites for this past week...

Winter Scene by stampindoe

Partial heat embossing by limedoodle

Poppies 2 by Penny627

Thank ewe by swldebbie

In the pines birthday card by amyk3868

Just a warning...I have had some difficulties with successive posts getting error messages. I sure hope this thread works.

I'm going to make a recommendation...use "go advanced" and then click on the button in the window toolbar in the top row right side that is two "A"s. That will give the best chance of working...I think!

[fionna51]

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.

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 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.

I changed browser and was able to get my second post to post.  On Firefox it would not work at all,  on Chrome it worked ok.

I hope that you have all had a great week.  I have not been on the gallery a lot, but I have found some truly wonderful works of art that I believe that you will really enjoy, created by very talented artist.  I feel very blessed to be learning when I see what these amazing artists have created.  Thanks to each of you for completely knocking off my socks!  I am actually just starting to wear socks but only on the coldest of days, because I'm a real die-hard sandal-wearer!!!

I truly hope that I have done these links correctly, somehow last time, they did not work and one of the staff for this thread had to list them again, I felt bad about giving her that extra work.  

I so appreciate all of the work that the staff on this thread do, from delivering the great news to other duties that they fulfill so that we can list and see our artwork listed as a CAS Favorite.

I look forward to checking out the other CAS Favorites lists, and I hope that you will enjoy checking out my CAS Favorites.

Have a safe and healthy week everyone.

Best wishes,

Joanne

[Benzi]

Just had to add another one. Kia didn't say CAS but it is in my faves so I am adding here.

[susanbri]

Lisa, thanks so much for including my Angled Iris card - very uplifting as it's my first card in a few weeks (I had a minor heart attack and was in hospital and then resting at home). Still not a lot of energy so forgive my lack of commenting. But I did spot two cards i really liked:

Poinsettia Christmas by ksenzak1 - at Splitcoaststampers

CAS602 JOY by shirlb19 - at Splitcoaststampers

You know how much I love Christmas cards!

[susanbri]

Sorry - I cannot get the links to work properly in my post above.  It's so frustrating!

[shirlb19]

Susan, this is what Sabrina just told me: "don't use the quick reply, use go advanced, Paste your link, then click on the little box with two A's which is the top right of the icons above the text entry box. Then if you click preview post your link should have formatted and you can press submit." I tried that this morning and it worked for my FS card.

Shirl

[swldebbie]

Thanks so much for the mention, Brenda.  Always appreciated, never taken for granted.

Thanks to Karen for the heads up about the happy news.

[muscrat]

Thanks Carrie for adding my spanner panel card to your favorites!

I am struggling to find the box with the two A's to click on after clicking on advanced, which I did.  I spent a LONG time trying to make it work.  Feeling pretty dumb and I'm so sorry that my choices caused so much work because they wouldn't format properly when I followed the original instructions and couldn't find that box to click on with the two A's.  I'm thinking that I either won't list CAS Favorites again until the issue has been solved, or I can follow the updated instructions.  Perhaps there's a difference depending on the device one is working on.

Again, apologies to K Dunbrook for all of her extra work, I really feel terrible.

Sincerely,

Joanne

[Kalla Walla]

Lisa (Shoe Girl) thank you so much for including my card in your CAS favorites.  Karen, thank you for the happy mail.

[snietje]

Thank you Joanne for the favoring of my cards, and for all your lovely comments which makes one feel so important!!

Thank you Karen for the notifications.

Susan I hope you feel better soon and take care, I've missed your cards in the gallery

[k dunbrook]

Please don't feel badly Joanne, I'm fine with it. I will get to the others asap.

To find the A/A box, look in the top row of the icons, far right side.

Also when posting, use the tab at the bottom of the page that says, 

GO ADVANCED
