CASology Week 59 - Book

Good Afternoon,

This week's Cue Card at CASology is something that I love almost as much as cardmaking.  No it's not chocolate, but that would also fit, but Book!  I love to read, so I surprised myself when I had no stamps that featured books! So after a bit on pondering, I rememebered seeing cards which feature die cuts from actual book pages.  Now since I love my books I couldn't bring myself to tear a page out so I made my own book page to use.


Supplies Used:
Computer generated text and printed on copier paper
Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Antique Linen to make the paper look like an old book page
Clearly Besotted - Butterflies Wishes - Die and Stamp
Sparkle from my stash




Now it's over to you guys, I can't wait to see what you all come up with this week, but before you get started have a quick visit round the rest of the Design Team for further inspiration.


and this week's Guest Designer - Lisa
