Yesterday while browsing through the blogs on my Google reader, I came across this gorgeous card by Jennifer Buck. She had made her version for the Unity Hip Hop Thursday and I liked it so much I decided to CASE it. I hardly ever CASE other people's cards....I really like to try and come up with my own ideas, but this one was so cute I just had to do it! Plus it was a great way to show off some of my new Basic Grey DP....Eva this time:I've used the same layout, faux stitching and the use of the DP, but I've changed the colours and the design in the circle. As well as the Eva papers (seriously, how gorgeous are these papers?), I've used Pale Plum, Close to Cocoa and Gable Green CS....I've hardly ever used that green, but it was the best match I had for the green in the DP...go figure! The ribbon is (I think) some Cocoa narrow grosgrain. This isn't in the catty anymore, so I probably got it from Madonna....I have so much ribbon I can hardly remember where it came from...lol! The flowers and sentiment are rub-ons from the Eastern Elegance pack....love, love, love those rub-ons, and the *stitching* was done with my trusty white gel pen.
No stamping or bling....how did that happen?????
So, I'm off to do some weekend sketch challenges. Both Beate and Taylor have awesome sketches this week and I actually have a cupcake stamp to use on Taylor's....woohooooo...and Beate's is perfect for showing off some more of my DP collection! Hope you all have an awesome weekend.
