Inspiration In Action CASE Contest

A Happy Monday to All!!  I trust all is well and that everyone was able to squeeze a little time to stamp into their weekend.  I sure did and happened to come across a neat little contest that Gretchen Barron is holding on her blog – found here –The idea is to pick a card/project out of the current IB&C and case it.  You can change whatever you like….BUT make sure it still bears SOME resemblance to the original project.  It sounds like a lot of fun – won’t you join in and play along with the gang?

I started with a card located in the ‘All Natural’ section on page 120.  Here is a picture of what I cased ~

                        

And here is what I came up with ~

              

The things that I changed are:

• The matting from black to Cameo Coral
• Designed my own flower (made it more 3D) but kept the flow to the right
• Sponged the edges on the DSP
• The center strip between the card base and the matting is Very Vanilla with each side punched with the Eyelet Border Punch
• My sentiment is ‘thinking of you’
• My flatbacks are gold instead of pearl

And a closer look ~

            

You know I had to do the inside ~
