We have some incredible projects to show you today. What we are MOST excited about is having the talented Amy Koenders from the US hopping along with us.

Inspiration

So, not only are we hopping with Amy, but the theme for the hop is 'Case-ing Amy Koenders.'

This is the card I am Case-ing;


I started by stamping the jar image from the Vintage Leaves stamp set in VersaMark on a piece of Very Vanilla card stock. I clear embossed this image.

We have some incredible projects to show you today. What we are MOST excited about is having the talented Julie Davison from the US hopping along with us.

We met Julie and her husband in Barcelona in May 2016. It was a funny story ..... before the cruise, we were touring the amazing Sagrada Familia. I was looking at a scale model and I noticed that there was a woman smiling at us. I thought 'Do I know you?' I said to Kylie 'Do you know that lady?' Turned out to be Julie. Hahahahahaha!

Inspiration

So, not only are we hopping with Julie, but the theme for the hop is 'Case-ing Julie Davison.'

There is a card of Julies that I really like.


Aside from being a nice card, it is using the Detailed Floral Thinlits die in an alternative way. So, that was my starting point - use the Detailed Floral Thinlits in an alternative way.

My Card

Here is the card I ended up with;


I started with a small square of Whisper White card stock and using the smaller of the two detailed framelits, I ran the piece through the big shot. I rotated the card stock 180 degrees and cut again.
Using the edgelit, I then cut along the edge (both sides).



To make the base layer (under the white piece), I started with a square piece of Soft Suede. I aligned the edge lit with the edge of the piece of Whisper White and cut (both sides).

I cut two small layers of Delightful Dijon and Soft Suede and two strips of the burlap ribbon.


Finally, I stamped on a piece of whisper white with Delightful Dijon. As a final change to the card, i used the edgelit to cut out the sentiment. This was then mounted on a card.

We have some incredible projects to show you today. What we are MOST excited about is having the talented Sarah Berry from UK hopping along with us. We met Sarah and Tom on the incentive trip this past May and we (as was everyone who met him) were thoroughly charmed by their son Matthew.

Inspiration

So, not only are we hopping with Sarah, but the theme for the hop is 'Case-ing Sarah Berry.' There are a number of ways to interpret CASE.

• CASE - Copy and Share Everything (or with Everybody)
• CASE - Copy and Selectively Edit

The second definition is the one that I like and am using for the the card today.

Here is the card of Sarah's that I am CASE-ing


The main thing Im CASE'ing is the layout.

My Card

I used the small stamps from the Thoughtful Banners set and stamped across the page to create the horizontal band using these colours;

The words I selected describe a particular friend that I am going to send this to.



I then mounted this on a piece of Dapper Denim (using foam adhesive strips) and then mounted this onto a simple white card.



I then used the sentiment from the Scenic Sayings set and used the three coloured markers and coloured directly onto the stamp to create a three-colour stamp.



I then added a small Dapper Denim embellishment and mounted this onto the card using dimensionals.
