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.

Freshly Made Sketches #583

There is an interesting sketch at Freshly Made Sketches and while I had an immediate idea, following through with all the details was more difficult that I thought.  Maybe you should see the sketch first.

I have the Rustic Floral  Wreath from Pinkfresh Studio and stenciled with Altenew Inks.  It has the swag of flowers on both sides so I cut them apart and used one on my card along with a heat embossed sentiment from Sunny Studio.  The bow from PTI is cut from brown metallic paper.  That's what took so long - trying to figure out what color the bow should be.  I inked it with the same colors as the flowers and it turned out so different.  Nothing else I had matched but when I saw this scrap of brown I knew it was what I had been looking for. 

Thanks for dropping by.
