Thought I'd show you that I actually do play along with CASology; I've even won the challenge a few times. Here's the card that took top honors way back in 2012. Even after all this time, I still like this one! My photography skills weren't so hot back then; I hadn't gotten a light box yet. Providing the weather cooperates, I'm a better photographer these days.
A few years and over two hundred challenges later, the Cue Card this week is:
An idea for a "Welcome" card slammed into my brain. It took all of five minutes to make, and I really like the CAS feel to this. Hope you do too.
All stamps and dies are C9 (Thanks Lynn!!!), and the inks are PTI Ripe Avocado, Stampabilities gold, and some Mustard Seed Distress ink. Two little green blings finish off this card. The pineapple, as you know, is the symbol for welcome, as well as hospitality and friendship. I had to place mine slightly askew to match my personality...I hope you don't mind! I also hope you'll play along with me, the creative geniuses that are the Design Team, and those already in the gallery. It'll be fun, I promise! Happy dances everyone.

BIG Congrats on your Featured designer gig Bev, I'm so excited for you too!
YAY you!!!!!!! Love the cards you've featured!
I was thrilled to see you're the Featured Designer over at CASology, Bev ... huge congratulations ... sooooo deserved! Your 'original' potty people card is so cool and fun ... and I love that you tilted that delicious pineapple 'to match your personality' ... if that means sweet, generous and so wonderfully big hearted, go ahead and tilt! Miss you, mon amie! Hugs & bisous, Anita :)
Yahoooo! Congratulations on your Featured Designer role over at CASology! Thrilled to the moon-and-back for you and especially for us who get the sheer delight of seeing your creativity at play! Your 'in love' couple is darling; still has an impact as an oldie but a goodie; your pineapple is fantastic! Placing it slightly askew: love that touch of personality! You're too funny! On another note: did you hear my husband and I wildly cheering and applauding the Cubs exponentially awesome win? Talk about an intense series! No way was I going to root for Cleveland, who took our Jays out of contention, so the Cubs it was. Of course, knowing they're 'your boys' also had an influence! Apologies galore for being sooooo tardy with commenting (but not with sending 'virtual' oohs and ahhs!). Races, DT responsibilities and, of course, that 'bigger' thing (so. excited.) keeping us hopping! Will send you a proper note very soon!
Hugs, love and misses~c
