Danni’s Case

I didn’t get to participate in Flutter By Wednesday’s challenge last week because of wedding preps and being out of town and I really missed it. But I know another one will come buy in another week!

This weeks challenge was set by Cassie and is to case (copy and steal everything) a card from another member of our DT. I chose one of Danni’s cards!

09-08-19 caseI have to say, I chose the stamp before I chose the card that I wanted to case. This is a stamp that was designed by Elizabeth Bell for SCACD, of which Danni is a design team member. The reason I chose this stamp is because it is named after Danni . That’s right, this cute little fairy is named after our team leader, Danni! I looked at Danni’s blog and decided to case her card using this stamp.

09-08-19I didn’t exactly case it though. I didn’t have oval nesties so I used a rounded square punch and I don’t have the beautiful MS butterfly punches so I used these beautiful sequin flowers. My great blogger friend, Nancy, sent them to me as a RAK, Her blog is La Chambre Rose and she sells vintage style trims in her Etsy shop, Living on the Fringe. She sent me a whole package of beautiful trims that she thought I would like to use on my cards. I can’t wait to use more of them!

Of course, as usual, I colored the image with watercolor paints. I added a very light coat of Shimmerz to Danni’s butterfly wings and all the butterflies. The DP is K&Co.

If you would like to play along with the Flutter By Wednesday challenge, you can go check out all of the other lovely DT blogs by clicking on their links on the right sidebar and then going to Danni’s Dreams to link up your card.

Blessings,

Christine

Well, you know I always adore your cards and I love how you used my sequin appliques! I think I can say with conviction that shades of turquoise or aqua are my favorite colors. Thank you so so so much for the links.
