Each Thursday my Border Buddy Patsy Waggoner from the US and I take turns creating a card that we CASED from a current Stampin’ Up! catalogue. CASE means Copy And Selectively Edit. The beautiful projects by the concept artists from Stampin' Up! are a great way to be inspired! When you CASE, you can copy it exactly, or selectively edit it by changing the colors or the stamp set or both.
In my card today I changed up the stamp set from Prized Peony to Peaceful Boughs. I also changed the size of card.
Stampin' Up! concept artist card on left (page 83 of the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue and my CASE on right using Peaceful Bough Stamp Set and Beautiful Boughs Dies.
This is a great layout sketch that can be used over and over again for all kinds of stamps. I think it would work beautifully with the Poinsettia Petals Bundle.
