CASology Week 103: Glow

Happy Tuesday. It's time for a new challenge at CASology, where our cue word this week is GLOW. Most of the time, I try to go with the first idea that pops into my head, and that was the case this week. I immediately thought of this cute Waltzingmouse Little Lantern set I received as a gift from a sweet friend and had never inked up. I was thinking of the warm glow of a lantern, set outside to welcome someone home. I think I am already planning for the day that my oldest daughter comes home from her summer adventures.

Here is a reminder of the CAS guidelines:

1. One main image

2. Lots of open space (uncluttered)
3. Limited layers & embellishments
4. Quick & easy to recreate

You can see that my card meets all 4 criteria above. I thought that by putting the strip of yellow paper on the left side of the card, I was reinforcing the glow of the lantern. What do you thnk?

Now, it is your turn. What do you think of when you see the word GLOW? Have some fun with the cue word GLOW, and then please link up your creation on the CASology blog by Monday at noon (CST).

Check out the beautiful designs from the CASology Design Team members and see how they were inspired by GLOW.

Don't forget to keep your card Clean and Simple.
