CASEing Tillymint

This card is for all of you who visit my blog and SCS gallery.  Sharing my cards with you brings so much more happiness than just creating them.

I had a little time this morning and I checked out the Featured Stamper at SCS.  This week the honors go to Tillymint (aka Sue).  I would like to CASE several of her cards if only I had the time!  What an enjoyable gallery.  I chose this card to CASE first.

Here is what I came up with......



I really didn't change much.

I loved the single pink flower in Sue's card so I stayed with that although I used a different flower and mine is stamped then watercolored.  (This time I colored with a blender pen and ink. Much more control that way!)  I did use a narrow mat behind my image and another scrap of white behind that instead of scoring.

I used another piece of the stiff insert from DSP as a card base.  It is a better match to the shimmery white that I stamped and colored on. I punched the same lacy edge as Sue did and changed the sentiment.

Card Recipe
Stamps:  Happiness Shared
Ink:  Black StazOn, Melon Mambo, Pear Pizzazz

I'm off to celebrate our Emmy's 2nd birthday.  My but time flies!  Here she is at 2.


She's already starting to look like a big girl!

Enjoy,
Bonnie

    Very pretty! The sentiment is just right for that card, too.

    Love your CAS card! Sooooo lovely!

    I know just what you mean ... 2 doesn't "sound" very old, but it sure is progress past when we snuggled them in our tight little blankie bundles! Darling indeed.

    What a lovely card design, so clean and pretty.
    Happy Birthday to Emmy, she is adorable!

    I tried to join your blog followers a few days ago but it wouldn't let me for some reason. Glad it worked this time, it must have been a temporary glitch.
    Have a great day, Bonnie!

    Your card is so pretty...beautiful image. And, what a 2 yr. old sweetie! Precious, and they do grow so fast. I spent time this weekend with my two yr. old and 5 month old grandbabies. What a sweet experience.

    Bonnie, what a spot-on CASE of Tillymint's card! I love yours better, actually. ;D Love the extra matting behind the image.

    And what a sweet little pic of Emmy. She is 'two' cute!
