It's Tuesday and you know what that means! A new cue word is going up over at CASology and this one, my friends, may prove to be a true challenge.
Spring is supposedly coming soon and that means Easter is too. That's one route you could take this cue word...Easter basket. Of course, you wouldn't have to attach any theme to a basket at all and just go with a plain ole basket of some sort. Me? I thought this one over and then it hit me! Retail therapy always involves a basket, does it not?! Of course, I don't usually use one of those hand held types because a basket on wheels is more my style these days when out shopping. It's got a handy seat for DD and it's got lots of room for things not on my shopping list. sigh.
I went uber clean and simple with my design...

Those little UPC codes on packages can be quite elusive sometimes, but I made sure it's easy to find on this card. It's even down at the bottom of the card like most real ones are! I pay attention to details like that, you know. This really could have been a one layer card now that I think about it, but alas, I presently have a good sized to do list going right now and "remake card" is not on it.
I hope you'll take some time to show the rest of the design team & this week's guest designer some blog love on their blogs this week! They've done a wonderful job of interpreting the cue word!

This is brilliant! Such a fun take on the word, and uber CAS!
ReplyDeleteHow fun!!
ReplyDeleteHa! I love your idea of a shopping basket...that bar code works for online shopping, too (ever use the bar code scan app to find the item at the cheapest price? I love that one!). Very CAS and very fun!!!
ReplyDeleteSuper clever take on the cue word! Not only does a shopping cart have room for all those things not on the list but it frees up your hands for grabbing even more stuff!
ReplyDeleteClever as always, FEEL better Melissa!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuper Uber CAS cleverness!! BRILLIANT take on the cue, but also, a really fun card to give someone. How can you not want to open a card that asks you to 'check this out!' Curiosity would kill me :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant Melissa!
ReplyDeleteoh this is so clever and funny! :)
