Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop for February. The theme for this months blog hop is 'Case the Designer. And, who is the designer? None other than Patty Bennett from Hercules, California, USA.



For the past two Incentive Trips, we have been in the room next door to the Bennett Family. We were totally starstruck the first time we met Patty, but she was super-nice. Patty recently clocked over selling a million dollars worth of Stampin' Up! products. Check out this video below of her clocking over $1,000,000.


OK - we are here for a blog hop...... Maybe you are starting the blog hop here at stampinbruno. Or, maybe you have been directed here from the previous person. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup at the bottom of the post will help you move along. You won't want to miss any on the list as there are some great projects on view.

So, on with the show .....

Card Inspiration

Here is the particular card of Pattys that I have chosen to CASE (Copy and Selectively Edit)

My Card

Here is the card I ended up with;

You can see the main design elements have been inspired by Pattys card and loosely, the colours used have also been inspired. But, thats the idea behind Copy and Selectively Edit. hahahahah!

Do you like the background? I actually wanted to use a sheet of Old Olive DSP from the Brights Stack - you know the one I mean? Well, unfortunately, we didn't have any of that colour left. So, I 'made' my own using the Brushstrokes stamp set.


I used the new Party Pants Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set for the sentiment, balloon, strong and balloon tassel. Remember, you can't BUY this stamp set, but you can ear it for FREE with every $90 you spend on any Stampin' Up! products available to buy now.


The Party Pants set above is so versatile. You will NOT want to miss out on getting this set - FREE!


What do you think of the gold strip? There is no strip of bling on Patty's card, so this was my addition. Ill be honest - I messed up the tassels and so rather than re-stamping the banner, I covered it. And, the last card I had used the Gold Glimmer Paper so it was on the table - I actually really like it.

How awesome is the Designer Series Paper sheet of paper? It is from the pretty Petals Designer Series Paper stack.


This was a fun card to make. Thanks for the inspiration Patty - and congrats again for the million dollar achievement. And, also, its been awesome watching you get into Project Life.


Hopefully, there was something in this card that you can use on your projects. Thanks again for stopping by.
