CASE Study Challenge #140 For Mom

Ready for your weekly dose of CASE inspiration?  Well of course you are!!  This month's muse is  Maile Belles from Simply Stamped!   Pure clean and simple goodness here folks so no excuses!  Check out the inspiration photo!  What grabs you?  Is it the flowers? the stamped background? the colors?  So cool how the leaves are stamped on the base of the card and the flowers have been double stamped and then fussy cut  to pop up.  Those little button centers are sweet too.

For me?  I fell for the layout.  I was drawn to the little stem peeking out under the ribbon - looks like a beautiful bouquet of flowers was just tucked in there!  I turned the flowers into paper roses, the leaves into swirls of gems and the ribbon into lace. I still got some leaves hanging over the lace and I think this little bouquet looks "tucked in" as well.  To finish it off I added a bitty tag so my mom knows this one is just for her.  My mom is definitely a "more is more" person and I think she will love all the extras on this one.
