CAS (Clean and Simple) favorites for the week ending Sunday, March 9, 2014
This is the thread where all you Clean and Simple aficionados can share all your favorites for the week with all the rest of us Clean and Simple aficionados.
I have a goodly number of favorites for this week, some of them from Virtual Stamp Night challenges. VSN is going on this weekend, and if you'd like to play, you have a week to upload your cards.
Meanwhile, back at the Ranch...
MelodyGal
A new-to-me stamper with a beautiful sympathy card
Veritycards
Another new-to-me stamper who did a beautiful textured background for some lovely purple flowers
ilinacrouse
LOVE what she did with Hardwood background and the image layer
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.
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 and hit Ctrl+V to paste your link there. Hit Enter twice to add a blank line. Repeat as many times as needed for all your links.
5. Click the Preview Post button and check that your links work. Then click the Submit Reply button.
Thank you for listing my card. You have brightened my day. I haven't been on SCS much for several months (other than to upload some cards now and then ), and I hope to look around and add some of my favorites to this board before the day is over.

Merry & Bright by cretancrafter ***NEW TO ME STAMPER*** I have a soft spot in my heart for quilt cards and I particularly love the stained glass look and pretty colors of this one.
Just for You by Veritycards[/url] ***NEW TO ME STAMPER*** Simply stunning! This CAS card, with all its embossing and pretty flowers is anything but plain and boring.
Peaceful Prayers by YoursTruly Powerful in its simplicity, this card speaks volumes.
Birthday Wishes by mamamostamps ***NEW TO ME STAMPER*** Loved the pop of bright colors from the fun balloons against the black and white card.
Heart Rainbow by Lisa Lara Those dimensional hearts make for the happiest rain I ever did see!
Happy Thoughts by Loll Thompson The woodgrain embossed copper on this card is just amazing!
Lovely Tag Card by nancy littrell The deep red with white and the tone on tone texture make for one classy CAS card.
I'm a little late with my favorites this week since I had my first bicycle race of the season this morning. I also dealt with a migraine and stomach bug this week, so I stealth-favorited a bunch of cards.
I found a lot of beautiful cards, as always. Some have been mentioned, but here are more:
Thanks for selecting my card, Oddesigns, and thanks to Karen for letting me know. So fun to see my card highlighted!! Have a great start to the week...
Oh My, thank you MarianneLamb, for your mention of my card amongst such amazing talent! I'm over the moon ecstatic and thank you so much! You've made my week!
