Great CAS cards Linda! They are a challenge to me also. Guess I'll use yours for MY mojo now!
My favorite is the middle card with its really clean look using minimal materials. Loved its look and the dainty bling you used on it! Actually, all the cards were super.
Once you got jumpstarted into the clean and simple with a bit of sparkle you went at top speed. Your cards are all amazing. I adore each and every one of them. My favorite one though is the border of leaves patterned one.
You did good with the casual cards you should try some more the're great
