Welcome to the Clean and Simple (or CAS for short) favorites of the week thread!!! Here's where we celebrate simplicity by recognizing the past week's gallery uploads that stood out as examples of the CAS style.
EVERYONE is welcome to participate in this thread. Dive right in and post links to your favorites. Also, try to leave a little love for the CAS projects listed in the form of comments. Some of my favorites had NO comments this week. The gallery is big, and it's easy for gems to get hidden, so let's fix that.
I'll get us started.
k dunbrook created a fab one-layer card with strong colors and a single pearl
biggan gets such great impressions on textured cardstock, and her one-layer heart card is no exception
susanbri used negative space to awesome effect on her Star-filled Circle card
jacynthe white embossed on cherry cobbler and accented her clean Christmas card with a lovely ribbon
bon2stamp made a CAS Halloween card that I wish I'd made!

cookiebaker's spectrum leaf card jumped all by itself into my favorites folder

As always, many thanks to everyone who posts cards and projects in the gallery. I know it takes time and effort to do so, but that time and effort spent is very much appreciated!
And now it's your turn!!! Please post your CAS favorites so we can see what we might have missed in the great big gallery!
THANK YOU sooooo much, Susan! I am so honored that you mentioned my baby boy invites! It's been awhile since I've been able to create much, but I'm so glad I can again, and this gives me a boost to do more!!! Thank you.
Lisa Lara(Lisa) and girlgeek101(Audrie), Thank you so much for mentioning my Maple Leaf card as one of your favorities......especially since it turned out to be a "trick" looking photo! : ) I appreciate it very much. And thanks to Karen, for again keeping me posted so I could says "thanks" to you. Hugs, Sallie
I never knew how much I appreciated my daily contact with SCS until I was gone for 9 days! OC that I am, I had to go through every one of the uploads from the 16th through last night (that's about 50 pages at 96 per page), when I got home! ;)
So many of my faves have already been mentioned, but I do have a few to share.
Awwwwwwwwwwww Thank You Rosemary (rosigrld) for faving my card! Wow. I am so happy you guys like my card. What a honor to be mentioned here in this forum among such talent. Hugs.
Hugs to you, Lisa, for mentioning my leaf card! I tend to struggle with CAS cards, so it's an honor to have a pro like you mention that you liked it! :-)

Thanks so much, Sue (LateBlossom) for mentioning my Happy Fall card. It's quite an honor for me to be mentioned here in the CAS favorites, especially since my cards are mostly BAC cards (Busy and Cluttered). Haha! Thanks to Karen for letting me know I was mentioned! Have a great day!
Carolyn aka snowmanqueen, a huge Thank you, on this foggy Monday morning to you, for favoring my Hello Fall CAS card! You have put some sunshine into this foggy Monday morning!! What a wonderful way to start the day!!
Thank you Karen for the notification. If only I had been paying attention yesterday, the Thank you's would have come sooner!
Thanks for mentioning my card and thanks to K Dunbrook for calling it to my attention. My internet was out for the last 1-1/2 days and I was happy to see the comment on my card when I checked in this afternoon. Looking forward to reviewing the cards mentioned in this thread and paying it forward also. Happy Monday to all.
Thank you to Susanbri and Lisa Laura for honoring my cards here. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful place to share my cards and to have such great women to mention them when there own work is so fabulous.
I apologize for not responding sooner, my mom was here all week so I have not been on line or made any cards.
