Clear and Simple Stamps was created as a collaborative effort by a mother-daughter duo. Both of whom share a love of art, fashion, graphic design, event planning, entertaining and above all else paper crafting! Together Reenee and Nicki have built a company that is steeped in the love of all things creative and enjoy bringing you clear stamps with style. 
Our concept is clear and simple stamping - each set offers you a variety of options to fit your own personal, creative style. We know all too well the desire to find inspiration. Visit with us every day on your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad for a daily boost of creativity by using the CSS Daily App {available in iTunes}.

Welcome back to CAS-ual Fridays, The Clean And Simple Challenge!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all who participated in last week's special Operation Julie's Smile challenge.  We had so many of you trying CAS for the very first time simply because you wanted to support Julie.  It was amazing to see the outpouring of love for one of our fellow stampers, and I can't tell you how many times I got teary eyed reading your sweet comments and blog posts. Julie is still making her way through the hop, enjoying every post and feeling very loved.  This is truly an amazing crafty community and we are so blessed and proud to be part of it!  

In the spirit of Halloween, we've got a tricky challenge for you this week.

CFC24:  Create a Clean And Simple Halloween project with NO orange.  Not even a tiny spot!
