You are witnessing a first for me: I am the Guest Designer for CASology this week, and I couldn't be happier.
This week's word is 'POND'. The first thing that popped into my head
when I saw 'pond' was frog, so I put this little green cutie on a lily
pad, nestled amidst the bamboo. I used this
frog as my focal point, and balanced him out with a sentiment in the
opposite corner. There is still room for lots of textured white space.
I hope you will play along this week. What do you think of when you think about ponds?
Here are some guidelines you may find helpful:
Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps: Frog Hop, Peaceful Garden
Paper: White, Kraft, Ripe Avocado, Simply Chartreuese
Ink: Kraft, Ripe Avocado, Memento Tuxedo Black
Other: Frog Hop, Fillable Frames Dies, Canvas/Linen IP, Twine, Google Eyes
