CASEing Bobby

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!


The challenge at Just Us Girls this week is to CASE (Copy And Share Everything).
I chose Bobby's card to CASE...


I had just taken last month's calendar page down and since it's the same flower
that Bobby used, it seemed to be perfect for a CASE of Bobby's card.

The flowers are the same and the basic layout.  I've used different colors, different
framing and embossing instead of inking in the background.  Oh, and I added a 
tiny butterfly too.  Thanks for the inspiration, Bobby!

The flowers had been stamped with Toffee Crunch ink and colored with Copics.

I die cut the flowers and frame, embossed the center of the frame and doubled
the outside.  Then I added a Betterpress sentiment and butterfly.

Challenges:
Just Us Girls #834 - CASE a DT (Bobby)
Penny Black Saturday - ATG using Penny Black/option of Things with Wings

Poppy Trio

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'm excited to be Guest Designing with the Inspiration Team at
Penny Black Saturday Challenge.


The theme is always Anything Goes using Penny Black products as your main focus.
The option this month is to use your favorite Penny Black stamp.  That's a bit
like asking which is your favorite child!  But my mind went directly to this stamp
that has been in my collection for a long time.  I don't think I'd used it in over 
ten years.  It was time to dust it off!

I stamped it on mixed media paper with Memento Toffee Crunch ink for a 
no-line watercolor look and colored with Zigs.  I used a Copic Multiliner for 
the centers.

I tried to plant the poppies in dirt and it didn't go well.  Hence the "cover up"
piece at the bottom.  It made a good place for the sentiment though.

I'm going over to the Penny Black Saturday Challenge and see what that
fabulous Design Team has done to inspire us.  I hope you'll check it out too.
