CASology #319


Welcome to Week 317 of CASology!  Take a look at the cue word for this week:



 These adorable little Mama Elephant birdies were the first thing that came to mind when I saw this week's cue word.  I also remembered an old mathematical Hero Arts background stamp that I doubt has ever been used. (Hangs head in shame).  I stamped it very lightly so that it adds subtle texture to the card without overwhelming the CAS style.

Looking forward to seeing what direction the cue word takes you.  Check out the gorgeousness from the rest of the design team then play along!

CASology #317


Welcome to Week 317 of CASology!  Take a look at the cue word for this week:


My card today reflects something I get grief about whenever I order it from a menu.  Yes, I am one of those people chefs hate - I like my steak well done and I make no apologies for that!  :) 

Looking forward to seeing what direction the cue word takes you.  Check out the gorgeousness from the rest of the design team then play along!

CASology #316


Welcome to Week 316 of CASology!  Take a look at the cue word for this week:


I really should make a stack of these to keep on hand because I rarely seem to get birthday cards in the mail on time if at all.  I've been especially bad this year but am trying to get back on track.  

Looking forward to seeing what direction the cue word takes you.  Check out the gorgeousness from the rest of the design team then play along!

CASology #315


Welcome to Week 315 of CASology!  Take a look at the cue word for this week:



I have a lot of gratitude towards Altenew for sending this gorgeous flower stamp with a personalized "Handcrafted by Jennifer Wills" stamp included.  Talk about customer appreciation!  I know there was a lot of buzz around these stamps a while back but it took some time to get ahold of mine.  While it's lovely that Altenew sent these out as a surprise gift, Bermuda doesn't take kindly to items that arrive without invoices.  Even free gifts need a value so we can pay duty on them!  Anyway after some finagling I finally got mine and I couldn't be happier.  Thanks, Altenew!

Looking forward to seeing what direction the cue word takes you.  Check out the gorgeousness from the rest of the design team then play along!
