So Grateful CASE

This card is a CASE from my new favorite paper crafter that I was lucky enough to stumble across. You know how I'm always questing for inspiration?   Well,  have I got a treat for you!   I found her site from her card that someone else had posted from Pinterest.  Before I knew it I was pining away and craving more inspiration I kept browsing get site and never disappointed.

Her name is Laura Lipe.  It would truly be a travesty of justice if I didn't share her blog with you.  There are so many cards of hers that I want to CASE.  The dilemma now, I just have to figure out which one I want to do next!  :)

I used Apothecary Art for the sentiment.  There was very little inking on this card, other than the sentiment and some light sponging around the edges to make the images pop. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Grateful Butterfly CASE and Début

Greetings!  I was surfing on NetworkedBlogs the other day and found myself scrolling through posts on Christine Blain’s site.  She’s actually quite talented and I always look forward to seeing what she’ll come up with next.  Anyway, the picture below is from a CASE I did on her site.  (If you check out her site, please send her a comment.  (We adore comments!)
Anyway, there were a lot of punches that were used to create this card.  The butterfly punch, is brand new and this is it’s first début right here!  hehehe

The flower was created with the 5 petal flower, Fancy Flower, and Boho Blossoms punches. 

Have a beautiful day!
