CASology #164: UMBRELLA
Hello, friends! Thanks for stopping by as we introduce the new cue card at CASology this week!
After a pretty dry summer, we've had some rain this week and my lawn is happy to have it! I just bought a few new umbrellas for my kids since they now walk home from school, rain or shine. This cue came at the perfect time!
I used this (retired) sweet set from Jane's Doodles and made a get well card with a few sequins for the rain.
I'm going to link this up to Darnell's NBUS Challenge #5 since I have never before used these stamps. Thanks for the motivation to use some "never before used stuff," Darnell!
Be sure to link up your UMBRELLA card by noon on Monday (Central time). While you are at it, check out the super creations by our Design Team and Guest Designer this week!

CASology #163: MOON
Hello, friends! Thanks to all who played along with last week's cue card at CASology...you made it very hard for me to pick a winner! You are all doing a super job keeping your designs clean and simple, and I know some of you comment that it is very hard to do at times! Well done and thanks so much for playing along with us.
Speaking of playing along, it's time for our next CASology cue card!
Here on the East Coast of the U.S., late summer (or "Indian Summer" as we call it) has brought with it cooler mornings, leaves changing colors and falling, late summer plants blooming and mid-summer plants dying. I love the change of seasons! When I think of fall, I also think of big, bright full moons. "Harvest moon." My daughter has a telescope and we love to take it out on cool evenings to look at all the details of the full moon...so amazing.
And here is my first Halloween card of the season. (My little nieces and nephews love getting Halloween cards in the mail!) I masked the stamped moon and sprayed it with gold Perfect Pearls mist for some added interest. I love the shine!
So, what does the cue card MOON bring to mind? (No, not THAT "moon," unless you have that kind of sense of humor...yes, I admit that several of the DT members thought the same thing but we didn't have the right stamps for the occasion).
Be sure to link up your card by noon on Monday (Central time). Check out the Design Team and Guest Designer blogs for more inspiration, too!

CASology #162: WRITE
Hello, friends! I'm happy to be back today with our next cue card for CASology...perfect timing for all those going back to school!
This week my four kids return to school and I return to work after a wonderful summer off. We are always sorry to see it end, mainly because we like sleeping later, taking vacations, and generally going at a slower pace than we do during the very busy school year. I'm disappointed that I didn't finish all the projects on my to-do list, but I have noticed a pattern -- I never finish what is on that list -- and I have concluded I put too many things on the list in the first place. I need to stop doing that -- then maybe one of these days I'll feel a sense of accomplishment when summer ends! :)
The cue card this week represents something we will all be doing more of now that school has resumed...we have all sharpened our #2 pencils and are ready to go!
That's what inspired my card, using the new "School Days" stamp set from Precious Remembrance Shop. I thought the background embossed with apples was fitting for a school-themed card!
I used a Sakura jelly roll glitter pen to add some highlights to the letters and numbers...adds a bit of dimension to an otherwise flat design, doesn't it?
I am planning on sending cards to my nieces and nephews as they begin some major school milestones this month -- two are going off to kindergarten, and three are going off to college! (I have seventeen nieces and nephews, so there are lots of "card occasions" in our family!)
Be sure to link up your WRITE card by noon on Monday (Central time). You will also be inspired by the many ways our Design Team and Guest Designer interpreted the cue this week...be sure to check them out!

Happy Birthday, Hannelie!
Hello, friends!
Just stopping by to share a birthday card for my CASology design teammate, the amazingly talented Hannelie Bester of "Desert Diva."
I was thrilled when Hannelie joined our team since I have been a long-time fan of her work. She designs so many cool cards...and have you seen her collection of free digital sentiments? I think I have saved almost all of them onto my hard drive! Now she has her whole collection all in one spot in a Pinterest board called "My Card Sentiments." (A dream come true!) You can check them out HERE.
I made this card for Hannelie (and I sure hope she has received it by today!) using my own computer-generated sentiment paired with MFT LJD Circle Scribble Flowers stamps/dies and patterned papers.
Happy birthday to you, Hannelie, and best wishes for a wonderful year ahead!
Thanks for stopping by,
Judy

Addicted to CAS #71: Blue
Hello, friends! I'm here today to share a card for the current Addicted to CAS Challenge #71: Blue.
I made this card for my nephew's christening and used baby blue DCWV glitter paper with Spellbinders cross dies. The light blue gem in the middle matched the paper perfectly...I love it when that happens!
Just a quick post today...off to make dinner!
Thanks for stopping by,
Judy
