For my CAS inspiration this week I created a card for my daughter who is going into grade 10 this fall. I have always made cards to encourage her when she returns to school. With her being 15 I needed to make a card that was cool, not babyish and that gives her gentle persuasion to keep working hard to maintain her grades.
I decided to go with an all white card. I limited the number of items I placed on the focal panel to:
- a white die cut, clear embossed apple popped with a foam dot for the COOL
- a red stamped A+ for the gentle encouragement to keep up her grades and add some interest and pop to the design
- a simple computer generated sentiment
Head on over to CASology today to learn what the `cue card`means to you, how you can play along and see the all the cards created by the Design Team to inspire you.
