Happy New Year everyone!
I am here with CASology’s first cue word for 2015:
Quite apt for this time of the year!
Sadly, the first thought that went through my mind was, ‘Oops, did I forget something?’ Remembering (some) important dates has not been my strong suit in the past… Hoping to remedy that!
So, for old times’ sake ;-), here is my take:
This is a very CAS design and easy to recreate. I hand-cut a stencil out of a post-it note to create the exclamation mark (the circle was die-cut), and then filled it with mini exclamation marks. To add interest, the odd question mark and exclamation mark were stamped in red. The focal image is further reinforced by using a ‘skinny’ or slimmer panel on the portrait-orientated card.
What does the word ‘date’ conjure up in your mind? Looking forward to seeing your amazing creations! CASology has the wonderful Cindy B Designs sponsoring this week, so make sure you play along.
