Our Featured Stamper this week is Tina DeLong , aka GardenDiva !
Tina has been gracing the galleries at SCS with her beautiful creations since 2007 -
she participates in many challenges, helps host the Tuesday Teapotter
Challenge and gives a lot of encouragement through her commenting!
Come and check out Tina's gallery HERE and play along!
Go to the Featured Stamper's gallery and CASE a card, following these simple CASEing Guidelines:
1. Change 2 or more things on the Featured Stamper's project. It could be a color combo, embellishments, backgrounds, or even the main image could be different -- but similar because you don't own the exact image. Please list the changes you made in your description.
2. Give credit to the original stamper and put a link to the original card in your description.
3. Fan Club members may upload today (Sunday). Non-Fan Club members are encouraged to play, but please wait until Monday to upload your creations to give our volunteer moderators a day off. This is so much appreciated.
4. Please note the following regarding Sketch Challenge cards: If you are keeping the same layout but changing most everything else on the featured stamper's card, make sure it isn't a sketch challenge card (SC###). The reason is because it is essentially is a CASE of the sketch since it isn't the Featured Stamper's original idea. Sketch challenges include Mojo Sketches, Design Team Sketch Challenges, and Blog Sketch Challenges, etc. Please be sure to check the keywords!

Oh my goodness!!!! I just adore the Featured Stamper challenge each week...it gives me a chance to study other stampers that participate in this amazing website. I am just floored and honored that you would pick me as today's featured stamper. Thank you Bridget!!! The friendship and encouragement that is given from these talented artists is priceless. Through some of the challenges we have the opportunity to send an unexpected blessing to someone that really needs a lift and in doing so it also blesses us. Without SCS I never would have had the chance to "meet" Kittie in Florida, Bridget in Ireland, Susie in Australia, Trish in Canada, Cindy (mothermark), Pat (blooms in a box), Brigit, NancyRuth, Lydia, Zindorf, Frenchie, Grace, Angie, Julie, Cheryl, Chris, Anne, Lois, Dawn and Harriet just to name a few. All of the 42,000 teapotters!!! I could go on and on..... All of the stampers here are talented and generous with that talent. A special thanks to the challenge moderators that give of their time to feed our minds with tasks to keep us sharp, alert and creating.
I feel VERY blessed to be a part of this family.
Thank you again!!! HUGS and have a Blessed Sunday....
Wow.......... what a way to start the new year!!! hee hee

A TERRIFIC choice, Bridget...and if I might say, one that is long overdue! : ) Tina has been a contributing member to SCS for years! She not only creates wonderful cards, but is encouraging to others...which in my book, is equally important.
A BIG CONGRATS, Tina.......enjoy your very special week and the gallery that is created for you. Hugs, Sallie
Congratulations Tina!!! You are such a fabulous stamper and so worthy of this honor! I hope I can find time to play along later on today, but it's a full day so I'm not sure.... but please know how excited I am for you!!!! I know there will be some beautiful creations made in your honor!!!!

Hearts for Tina
HERE is my CASE of Tina's IC418 Precious Bundle . I changed it to a Valentine and instead of embossing around the outside I used a scalloped oval Nestie and embossed only instead of cutting with it. The embossing is hard to see in the photo but IRL it looks great to me! Congratulations Tina....beautiful gallery and I loved browsing through it. Enjoy your special recognition!!!
Woo hoo!!! Congrats, Tina!!! What an exciting week for you, huh? I chose one of your gorgeous cards for Our Daily Bread designs Customer Card of the Day, you won the ODBD Shining the Light Challenge, and now you are this week's Featured Stamper! It's been fun chatting with you this week!! I had a blast cruising through your gallery again today......your work is amazing.....of course my faves are ODBD (wink!) Enjoy your special week, darlin'!!!
Tina- a great gallery, congrats on being our FS this week! I was insired by your So Romantic card with its floral theme and pink and brown color scheme. I used some stamped images from my friends, and added a dc flower with 7/8" crescent circle punched "petals", embellished with adhesive gems. Here's Fancy Flowers

Thank you, Bridget, for selecting such a great gallery for today. Tina, your creations are lovely. I had a hard time picking just one, but I was looking for an attractive way to use a small image in a full-size card. You actually have several great ideas in your gallery, but I took my (fairly literal) inspiration from this lovely card.

Congrats to Tina
