CCC #36 ~ Sorry to Hear...!

Hey there bloggy friends! I have a quick CAS card for the CASology cue word this week. They want to see our take on the word song. I heard this one on the radio and knew it was meant to be, take a peek...



This went together in a snap and is one of those flat and easy to mail cards. Three little Judith umbrellas were colored with markers and sprinkled with raindrops from Inky Antics. Some extra cute soft gray polka dot Washi  for added interest and a sentiment by PSX

Well have you figured it out!!??!! Purple Rain by Prince...or that symbol thingy...no wait I think he's Prince again ~HA!!!

 Have a great day and thanks for popping in ~Lisa

Oh that takes me back! Remember the hair?! This is a really clever tie in to your song. I love the washi, too - grey goes so well with that purple! Thanks so much for playing along with us at CASology this week!

Cute, Lisa! And I'm laughing because I used to LOVE Prince...Painted the Purple Rain album cover on canvas and gave it to a sweetheart who was a Prince wanna-be. Oh, the drama of my younger days!!! Love it, dear!!

:-) Very clever take on Purple Rain. I love it! I did not guess that while first looking at the card (anesthesia still wearing off, I think!), but I completely see it now. I love the touches of gray, too. Very nicely done. ;-)

Wow, this does bring me back. I had some high school girlfriends that loved Prince, and YES, I was drug along to a concert! The crazy getups we wore, I ended up not enjoying the show as I had never been to a concert and didnt think about shoes..of course I wore high heels that killed me...hahhhaa I can laugh now. And my hair, it was crazy too,

Melissa said...

Haha! I'd completely forgotten about that song! Now I'm in the mood to go look up some Prince songs...it's been too long! I did love his creative music back in my younger days! :)
Love the trio of umbrellas and that soft grey washi tape is splendid!
Thanks so much for joining us at CASology this week!

Oh, of course! I remember getting that cassette for my birthday by my older cousin, and after opening presents we hid in my room and listened to it, so fearful that someone would hear the Darling Nicki lyrics and take the cassette away! Hahaha, that was pretty risque back then! Great interpretation of the song on your card, and the color really fits your sentiment!

Brilliant take on the challenge and of course it is purple rain ...not singing in the rain as I first thoughthee he (showing my age here I fear!) x

Marie said...

What a great CAS card, Lisa. Love the Purple Rain theme. Be careful using those Washi tapes...they are addicting! As if paper crafting wasn't enough of an addiction.

Right away I got the song! So clever! Love the gray Washi too!
