Stamp Crazy with Alison

Just in CASE – Free as a Bird Thank You Card

July 16, 2020 by Patsy Waggoner

16 Jul

Each Thursday my Border Buddy Alison Solven from Canada and I take turns creating a card that we CASED from a current Stampin’ Up! catalog. CASE stands for (Copy And Selectively Edit).   We like to show you how you can use the paper crafting projects in the Stampin’ Up! Catalog to inspire you!

Today's card features the Free as a Bird Stamp Set and Stitched Rectangle Dies by Stampin’ Up!®.  If you dislike cutting layers the Stitched Rectangles is the perfect solution.  The set has 13 different size rectangle stitched dies.  I love the layout that the Stampin' Up! graphic artist choose.  The different shape layers gives this card so much dimension.

When you CASE, you can copy it exactly, or selectively edit it by changing the colors or the stamp set or both.  Today I simply choose a different stamp set.

I custom colored the Crinkle Whisper White 1/4 Ribbon with the Stampin' Blend Cajun Craze Dark.  It is so easy to make matching ribbon for any project using the Stampin' Blends and white ribbon.
