CASology #362

Welcome to Week 362 of CASology! Take a look at the cue word for this week:

I was so desperate to get these MFT Jungle Friends dies when they were released yet only the elephant and crocodile have seen the light of day.

*hanging head in shame*

Thankfully today's cue word gave me the perfect opportunity to put this adorable giraffe to use. I used some patterned paper for him to give his coat a bit of interest but kept everything else clean and not too busy.

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 #361

Welcome to Week 361 of CASology! Take a look at the cue word for this week:

This Lovie Friend stamp set from Lil Inker is definitely the first one I pick up when Valentine's Day comes around. The images are adorable and there are some great puns in there too. I went with a super simple, classic layout today - centre, upper third. You can't go wrong with that on a CAS design!

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!
