CASology 18

The cue card this week at CASology is ORANGE.  At this time of year that conjures all sorts of ideas like the turning leaves, pumpkins, maybe even a squash or two.  But lately I've been on this bender where I take a color challenge that may evoke certain images and turn it into something a little unexpected.  So instead of grabbing a leaf to make my card I grabbed a butterfly.  That's an image that I love to use and have been neglecting since the colder weather has come around.



I did the one-layer CAS thing here with a fun circle border and a butterfly popped up on dimensionals.  I chose this rather understated sentiment because I wanted the circles and the butterfly to be the real showpiece of this card.  Everything was stamped in Tangerine Tango.  And of course, I stamped the sentiment crooked because that's what I do!  Grrrrr!

Thanks for stopping by!

  10. I almost grabbed a butterfly the other day and then decided it wasn't the right season...that's just not right, is it?! I think I'll take your lead and start using butterflies again even though winter is about here! I can't get enough of butterflies either!!
