Taking CASology for a Spin
It’s time for a brand new cue word over at CASology! Time to get those creative wheels spinning and see where this cue takes you!
For me, there seemed to be endless options, but I settled on an old phone! Remember those old rotary dial ones?! I used to love spinning the dial as a little girl. These days, you’re lucky to see one anywhere unless you’re intentionally searching!

I stamped the phone first and then stamped it a second time in black so I could fussy cut the dial. The dial was attached to the phone with a foam dot and embellished with a single clear gemstone. I stamped the speech bubble and sentiment in black and then fussy cut & attached it to the card base with foam dots.
Be sure and go say a quick hello to the design team members & this week’s guest designer! They work so hard each week to create inspiration!

This was one I didn't think of – very clever!
What a great idea for the cue word Melissa and super cute too! I remember being a little girl playing with the phone and asking my mom how do you dial the dash!!
Your rotary phone is much more beautiful than any I ever had as a kid, Melissa! Oh do I ever remember them … AND the MODERN version that hung on the wall!!! Thanks again for having me this week! xx

Very fun interpretation of the cue word. I remember those sorts of phones so well. Only, I never had a polka dotted one.
Yep, we had a phone like that! I still remember the sound the rotary phone made as you dialed…what a nice memory! Very cute card, I love the gem-a perfect fit!
This is so sweet!! yes, I do remember these great phones. I love the clean look of your card. I am inspired to try more CAS cards!!!!!

What a great card and an awesome interpretation of the cue word! I am old enough to remember having a rotary dial phone. LOL
Definitely remember these!! We used to have one when I was a girl – avocado green, I think!! Loved the weight in the handset, and turning the brass dial and waiting for it to slowly chug back before dialing the next number. Those were the days…!
Oh Melissa!!! You really went way back!! My grandmother still has this phone. She doesn't use it but she has it!! LOL! I love your card.
Ditto to what Hazel said! I loved the sound that spinning made! I wish mine had had a big ol’ gem in the middle of it… 🙂
