Did I mention  that Kellie and I spent the morning CASE-ing the other day?  We had to put our own spin on things, of course, but these two little cards are clearly first cousins to the note card on page 27 of the Occasions Mini.  We started with a 3×3 card

but quickly realized the proportions weren’t right.  Kellie figured out the card in the Mini wasn’t a square but a rectangle, and I didn’t want to make a card that I couldn’t find an envelope for, so we adjusted the card size to fit in the Scallop Envelope Bigz Die.

• Vintage Vogue Clear Mount Stamp set
• Pretty In Pink, Crushed Curry, and Sage Shadow card stock
• Whisper White (1st card) and Naturals White (2nd card) card stock
• Chocolate Chip, Crushed Curry and Sage Shadow Classic Ink pads
• Crushed Curry and Pretty in Pink Stampin’ Write markers
• Big Shot and Scallop Envelope Bigz die
  
• Scallop Trim border punch, paper snips, and Tombo Adhesive

It was so much fun to CASE these samples.  It’s relaxing to copy something, making changes to suit your personality and/or your supplies.  It’s almost like attending a class, except of course you have to cut all of your own paper.  I love designing my own projects, but sometimes I need to just make something instead of THINK about making something.

Have you stamped today?
