Hello and happy Tuesday. It's time for a new cue word at CASology. This week, our cue word is KIDS. There are so many ways to go with this cue word. How about a card with kids on it or a card made to be sent to a kid? These are just a few ideas to get you started.
I stamped an image of some girls having fun outside, and then sponged a gradient border over most of the image, covering about 1/3 of the card.
I am also going to link this card up at Virginia's View Challenge #15 Ombre/Monochromatic.
So, how about you? How are you inspired by KIDS? I hope you play along this week. Please remember to keep it Clean and Simple.
Love the pretty colours of your sky, Joyce and how you masked it to keep all that white space!
ReplyDeleteSo lovely, Joyce. One of my favorite past-times as a kid ... heck, I still love a good swing at the park with my grands!

ReplyDeleteThis card is amazing, Joyce! The sky is fabulous, the silhouettes are precious, and the whole thing reminds me of my own childhood (playing outside until the sun went down -- expect I played with all boys, no girls in my neighborhood!). Just lovely!!!
