CASology 111 - Under


This week's CASology Cue Card is Under!



I incorporated the cue card in two ways on my card. 1) the 'you' is under the 'thank' (Stampin' Up "Hey You"), 2) the whole sentiment is under vellum.

I cut the vellum in a circle, to provide a bit of a subtle frame around the sentiment. The trick with vellum is to attach it to your card. Most adhesives show through the vellum, so alternative methods must be used. I chose an old (OLD) heart brad as my method. I love how the vellum softens the look of the black sentiment.

Now it's your turn. Drop by the rest of the team to see even more inspiration!

  4. If I could get inside your head just for a moment Ardyth. As soon as I saw this is our gallery I though how does she think of these things! Brilliant. As for the die cuts? I usually have such a hard time lining them up, totally stamp dependent. I cut the fish first--did three, the one I used was best. Glasses ob a must, but I do have another technique--we'll chat.
