CASE Study #176 - Love

 Hi friends!  I hope you are having a great day!  I'm loving the inspiration from our muse at CASE Study this month - the wonderful Donna Mikasa from 3 Umbrellas blog.  She's been taking me to school this month and teaching me new ways to look at things.  That's something I really love about CASE - seeing that there are so many different ways to  interpret a design, and finding beauty in all of them. 

Here's the design for this week - hooked yet?  I love the die cut flower, the sprinkle of sequins, the rich gold embossed sentiment on vellum, and YES!  Hot Pink!!!    So clean, but absolutely PACKED with lots of details.   How did I make it mine?  I switched out the flower for a heart, the vellum sentiment for a die cut sentiment, and pattern paper, for the plain white card stock.  To add a little sparkle to my die cut sentiment I added silver glimmer paper inside the heart cut outs and sprinkled on some silver sequins topped with silver pearls.  The die is actually cut into the pattern paper, and the die cut pieces set inside.

Want a  little more inspiration, or maybe you just want to see what the rest of the design team made?  Just click on their names here to jump to their blogs!

So pretty Jeanne. Love the die-cut heart with the two tones. Very elegant.

Jeanne--this is just beautiful. Like a riot of color and texture and bling. I love how you made that design your very own.

Hi Jeanne,

The heart is so funky - and your card overall is so pretty. Eye-catching!
