CASology Week 190: Weather

Welcome to Week 190 at the CASology Challenge!




The word to inspire you this week is WEATHER. I'm lucky enough to live in an area that gets plenty of sunshine year round, so I thought I'd send a little your way with this card.




An MFT stencil and Distress Inks create the sunshine background for this fun sentiment from PTI's Hello, Sunshine stamp set.




A stamp press made it easy to mask off part of the sentiment and stamp it in two colors - an easy way to keep the card clean and simple, yet add interest to the design.

How does WEATHER inspire you? A Get Well card for someone under the weather? Celebrating the changing weather with the changing seasons? For more ideas, check out the wonderful variety of cards from the Design Team.

We are looking forward to seeing your weather related cards in the gallery this week - just remember to keep it Clean & Simple! You have until Monday at noon (CMT) to link your card to the CASology blog and a chance to win a prize from this week's sponsor, Avery Elle.

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie

  1. Of course, you and I had to stamp about our sunshine. Hard to resist the brag, right? Love your color saturated focal point (how do you get your yellows so vibrant in your photos?) and that is a great tip about getting a multi color sentiment.

  2. A lovely & sunny card - and I'd gladly take your gift of sunshine (if I could) as we're expecting a nasty freezing rain/snow storm in the next couple of days :-(
