Hello, and welcome to the CASology‘s 5- year anniversary blog hop! If you are coming from the Jacquie Southas‘s blog, you are right on track.
My Favorites of CASology Creations
Do you know that I was on the CASology challenge design team from January 2014 to June 2015? It had been so awesome designing for CASology. I had enjoyed seeing clean and simple creations in the entries every week, and I also had met so many talented ladies through the challenges.
This week’s cue card at CASology is BALLOON, and I found my inspiration from my old card that I created with Penny Black stamps. Here is my take:
I’m a big fan of Clean and Simple cards which tell a story. Can you guess the story I made up?
I started by stamping the fox image from Altenew Hug Me stamp set with Hero Arts intense black ink on A2 card base. Then I stamped the single balloon image from Altenew Hug Me stamp set after curving the part of string a bit. 
I colored my image with Copic markers and add some detail on the single balloon with white gel pen. I finished off my card with the sentiment from Altenew Hug Me stamp set.
That’s all for my card. I hope you enjoyed seeing my fox card and got some inspiration.
