Time for this week's new CASology Cue Card. This week the word is:
One stamp set that I never seem to tire of is Papertrey Ink's Up, Up & Away. I love that you can Copic colour, die cut or cut and stamp on patterned paper like I did for this week's challenge. I didn't realize that pattern on the paper was going to line up with the stamping the way it did until the card was finished. A happy surprise. I used my Pink Paislee Prairie Hill 6 x 6 papers, I just love the earthy tones and colours of that set.
Right now my son is hearing back on his University applications. That is step one and now it is keeping on track with his marks right till the end. That is a tall order when you are so done with high school. Hopefully this will give him some encouragement, do you think I should put it in his lunch bag? LOL
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.
All supplies are from Papertrey Ink unless otherwise noted.

ReplyDeleteThis is a great card, Tracey. I love how you stamped and die cut from the patterned papers. That makes for such a fun balloon!
Tracey, you just became the new Star of PP!! Your use of the patterned paper for the clouds and the balloon ~ so brilliant, especially on accident!!
ReplyDeleteAnd you are such a great Mom to make this for your son. Lunch box is great, but just handing it to him so you can see his face and get a BIG hug of thanks ... hmmm, touch choice! I wish him all the best!!
I'm sure your son will love this card because it came from you. Guys tend to be a little less emotional but I know from experience [my son is 23] that they do seriously care! Love your take on the cue card!
