*CASology #390*

Welcome to another clean and simple challenge with the team at CASology!

I faced a little trouble with this cue card because I had an idea in my head but I wasn't sure it was going to work.  So, instead of playing and figuring it out, I tried to talk myself in to other ideas.  It was Sunday morning when I realized I had procrastinated more than long enough so I sat down and tried it....  and while you might not get the "outside" feeling from this card, let me explain....

I coloured "outside the box"....

I started out by cutting out the shadow die that goes behind this word stamp... I put some Pixie Spray on it to keep it in place on my front panel and used some Tim Holtz inks in a streaking motion from the inside of the die to the outside, leaving a streaky look on the cardstock.  I then stamped the word smile in the centre of the shadow die and then added the rest of the sentiment.  I put it all together with some foam tape.

I hope I didn't stray too far from the cue...
