This week we are sponsored by Stamplorations. Be sure to stop by the CASology blog for all the details!
I must be honest...this week's cue had me stumped! After thinking of a few literal interpretations, it hit me...and I thought of "Root Canal!"
I know, I know, but hear me out...this idea came to me following a recent dentist visit with three of my four kids...and they walked out of there needing four fillings! I have teeth on my mind, what can I say? (Teeth do have roots, after all!)
This card will likely go in the lunch box of my little darling who has three of the four said fillings. Yikes.
All stamps by Sweet Stamp Shop: "Sweet Tooth"
I added Glossy Accents to the white tooth and popped it up for some dimension and interest. It is still a CAS design with lots of blue "white space" and few embellishments.
So, what does the cue bring to mind for you? (I do hope it's something a little more pleasant than root canals!)
Breaking News! In order to give participants more time to play along, we are extending the deadline for entries to Mondays at noon (Central Time). Due to this extension, we will be announcing our winners and honorable mentions on Tuesdays at 7:00 a.m. (Central Time), one hour before a new challenge begins. Challenges will begin at the same time as usual, 8:00 a.m. (Central Time) on Tuesdays.
So, that means you should be sure to link up your card by noon on Monday...and that gives you all weekend to make cards for the challenge! You will also be inspired by the many ways our Design Team and Guest Designer interpreted the cue this week...be sure to check out their blogs, too!
I love the story behind this, Judy - made me giggle! :) Your card is perfect and a very clever use of the cue word!
ReplyDeleteJudy, this is so inspired! Love it!
ReplyDeletesuper clever card, judy!! absolutely love it!
ReplyDeleteI was just looking through CASology DT cards and giggled when I saw your card-what a great take on the cue word-so creative!!
ReplyDeleteThis is just classic Judy! A totally fun card. I'm sorry to hear about the kids.
ReplyDeleteThat tooth looks white and shiny and perfectly healthy (and where the heck did you find a tooth image?!) Love your interpretation of the cue card!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun take on the cue card, Love that sweet image, though I hate dentist :P
ReplyDeleteSo clever, Judy! I love your repeat elements and 'sweet' sentiment...perfect!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I LOVE this! (Although bummer about the inspiration…) The Glossy Accents totally make that tooth pop!
ReplyDeleteHeehee, cute card!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute card, and I loved your story. I am amazed that you have a tooth stamp. That is pretty impressive.
ReplyDeleteI thought of root canals too!! Have just spent Monday and Tuesday at the dentist with my two. Max had his 3rd and final appt (he had 5 fillings!!!) and Phoebe had toothache after the back of one of her baby teeth fell off. She had her first numbing injection which went really well, thank goodness! So know how you feel about having 'teeth' on your mind...... Gorgeous card. Love the colour of the cardstock and have never seen a 'tooth' stamp before...must track one down!
ReplyDeleteYour backstory made me giggle Judy- although I can imagine you were not after leaving the dentist's office! Your card is great and now I know where I can get a tooth stamp to use on cards for our niece who is going to dental school soon:)
ReplyDeleteYour cute card made me smile Judy! What did your little boy say after seeing this card in the lunch box? I'm so curious! :) May

Oh my gawd! I almost choked over this card and what "roots" made you think of. So funny! Or not, the dentist is no laughing matter. They always lecture you and then want you to make their next car payment.
