Casology Guest designer!


Hello folks!


Hope you had a wonderful Easter and that the Easter bunny was kind to you.





This is the first of two posts tonight.  I was thrilled to win the last Casology challenge - and then a slight feeling of mild panic set in as it meant I would be guest designer for this week. I mean the Casology design team is a lot to live up to isn't it? How they think of such clever ideas each week is beyond me - sometimes I look at the cue word and all I'm hit with is a complete blank!


The cue word this week is 'news.'






I took the cue word quite literally and used an appropriate sentiment from Waltzingmouse's Camelia set.  I die cut the Dienamics daisy from some newsprint paper,  blended in some colour and put it against a gesso stencilled Memory Box background.

Make sure you check out all the Casology Design Team have to offer won't you - they are sure to get your crafty taste buds going!

Thanks for popping by,

Claire x

  2. Claire using the newsprint paper for your flowers is just gorgeous and the two toned inking on the petals is divine!
