Hello

Happy Monday,

I hope you all had a nice weekend. It was a quiet one here and I spent a few hours both days in my craft room.

This is a card that I made yesterday afternoon. I'm submitting it to two challenges. Just Us Girls has the "CASE the Designer" challenge this week. I don't play with these often as I get lost in the details for some reason. The second challenge is for the Color Hues turquoise and green colors.

I decided to CASE Lisa's card. I liked the single die cut image, and I knew I had several die options I could use. Here's Lisa's very pretty card I used as inspiration.

 

This is how I CASED it. Instead of stamping images in the background, I used a SSS cover plate with a similar design as the large SSS flower die that I used as the focal image. I used a die cut sentiment instead of a stamped one. The green and turquoise shades of card stock are from Gina K Designs as is the hello sentiment die, and the turquoise and green pearl embellishments. The black card stock is from Erin Lee and it has a glossy black finish.

There is a coordinating background stamp and I used it to stamp images in opposite corners on the inside of the card. The sentiment is from the SSS set called XL Greetings.

Enjoy the rest of your day, and thanks for looking in.

Colleen
