Hi, crafty friends! As I already told you yesterday, I stepped down from the CASology challenge design team. It has been so awesome being on the team for past one and a half years. I’ve enjoyed seeing clean and simple creations in the entries every week, and I also have met so many talented ladies through the challenges.
So today I decided to do a farewell post with my favorite cards that I made for the CASology challenge. It was interesting to look back at what I created throughout the challenges, but I had a hard time narrowing these down. Without further ado, in no particular order, here are my favorite cards of CASology creations. If you want more details of a particular card, just click on the photo of the card to go to the original post.
11. Cue Word: SEA
12. Cue Word: KIDS
13. Cue Word: CANDY
14. Cue Word :DATE
15. Cue Word: GHOST
16. Cue Word: SNOW
17. Cue Word: STYLE
I was really inspired by my own creations while going through all the CASology posts. Hope you also had fun revisiting them with me and got some inspiration. Before I leave, I have a special giveaway for you all including my CASology fans. This is the way of my appreciation for your love, kindness, and support.

Wow I seriously love all of your cards!!! You are so talented! I think my favorite is the jumpstart heart card! The image and sentiment are so perfectly suited. I adore the clean and simple design and the use of the little clips as jumper cables is simply brilliant!

Love your creativity; taking the cue word and doing something quite unexpected, yet keeping true to the cue word. My favorite is #13 – Candy. I love how the candy rolls out from the jar.

I’m so going to miss your cards each week at Casology as your designs are not only beautiful but you always thought a bit more ‘out of the box’ like myself. How do I choose a favourite?? I always loved the flowery boot as I thought it must have taken you so long to work out how to fit all the stamps in. So glad you will still be around in blogland, would hate to miss out on what your doing next!

Difficult to choose just one … but I’d go for the last one : Style. Love the fun floral shoe you created. So light and lovely.

Oh May! How does one choose? I’m sorry to see you go from CAsology, but I will keep up with your work here. I guess I’ll choose #13. I always love your innovative and whimsical CAS cards. I think that is a perfect example. I happily subscribed to your YouTube channel. 🙂

So sorry that you are leaving the DT; to me you are a great inspiration on how a few colours and as less images as possible can make a great inpact on a card! I’ll surely will hop over here to get inspired again! Have a colourfull week!

It’s a toss up between “you jump start my heart” and the Valentine pantie one!

May! All the cards are so creative! But my favorite is Jump) Why? I don’t know maybe idea?
Jul . 01 . 2015Thanks for your for videos. I’m just starting to make cards, and it’s really wonderful to see how miracle happens with white piece of card-stock.

Your talent and creativity shine in all of these examples. It is hard to pick just one favorite so I will pick two:
Jul . 01 . 2015#5 jump card because it is so fun and creative. #8 Grass because I love the design and fun fold. I also love how you use smaller stamps to make shapes on several of your cards.

Really hard to pick a favorite, but #16 Cue Word: Snow really grabs me! I am partial to snowman designs and just love the way you filled in this simple shape with all the fun little images!

It’s so hard to choose just one, May! You’re cards have always inspired and awed me (CAS cards seem to be a challenge for me!) If I have to choose, I love the “style” card. It’s super unique, beautiful colors and just makes me happy looking at it!

I so love your quirky, CAS style, May and always look forward to your take on the CASology word so am sorry to hear that you are stepping down! I remember all of these cards and they still make me gasp 🙂 Love the jump card because it is just genius and I love the keyhole stamp with the lovely colouring behind it. Thank you for all of the inspiration over the past year and a half.

May, you’re such a great inspiration and an amazing crafter!!!! It’s too hard for me to choose a card, as I love them all, each has something so unique about it… I definitely was stunned by the first one #1 Bold… I think I might make one like that for my hubby 😉 ))))) and also I love love love #7 Shape… I can’t even express my feelings about this card, it just touched me and made me speechless… I love it! Thanks so much for what you do!!! Love and hugs!!! Tasha

Thanks for all your inspiration while you were on the CASology team, and what a lovely selection of cards. I think my fave is the keyhole looking out into the flower garde, such a great idea and design. I have subscribed and look forward to watching your videos 🙂 x

May, it is not possible to pick a favorite! I love these all so much. You have such a great eye and a wonderfully clean and graphic style! Here are my top three: Garden (love those gorgeous bright florals peeking through); Java (SO pretty!), Old, LOVE that tree trunk and the colors, and Ghost (too fun!). OK that was actually four, but seriously, all great great stuff!
Jul . 01 . 2015Nicole G.
All cards are great. I choose number 5 because I really like the idea of it.
Jul . 01 . 2015Monica Maier
All the cards are great, but #16 stands out to me. I love snowmen and I adore how you have all the little images within the snowman shape.
Jul . 01 . 2015Jaklena
It is hard to choose one favorite card, but I’ll try! I really liked how you colored cheese with distress inks! Thank you for quick photo tutorials, May! You are awesome!

Aaaaw May, CASology is really going to miss you & your incredible cards. Always love to see what you create next.

Fabulous cards, my favorite is probably tropical because of all the ombre color. It really makes me think of summer time. I just subscribed to your channel, and your blog.

Love your clean style. Well, my favorite is #6. Let Love Grow, the watercolor cup and flowers. How darling. I found that I like to watercolor, too. I hopped over to your YouTube and subscribed. Now I am going back to see what I can learn from you. Thanks for sharing.
