Time Out Challenge #283 - CASE the Designer

It's Time Out's 11th birthday and for this challenge we want you to CASE this card by Donna Mikasa.

For my card I used Ardyth Percy-Robb's LIMES.  It stands for List, Include, Modify, Exclude and Spin.  If you aren't familiar with LIMES please check out her website.  It helps me not be so literal with anything I CASE.


I won't go through everything on the list but you can see the difference but still within the boundaries of Donna's card.  There is a stenciled floral panel from PTI, an embossed background (Blossom Field from SSS), and a celebrate sentiment from MFT.  I kept the color in the pink family, cut the panel with a rectangle and stamped the sentiment. 

It's going to be fun to see all the different ways the design team interprets Donna's card.  After seeing them, we hope you are inspired to make a card.  The winner of the challenge will receive a $25 store credit to Gina K Designs.

Two products I have and love, so no surprise I love this card, Bobby! Using the same ink for the flower centers and the little dots/berries looks wonderful--gotta remember that! Wonderful use of Donna's inspiration!
