Congratulations to Helen, {aka helekins},
our Featured Stamper #495!
She has a beautiful {gallery} full of color with something for everyone! You can grab your Featured Stamper badge below, Helen! *My sample: My Little Dog
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. Please be sure to check the keywords!

Beautiful gallery Helen!
I don't have many larger stamps to color, so I took a little different approach to this challenge, combining it with the IC556 - Paper Art challenge from yesterday.
Helen, congratulations on being chosen for featured stamper this week. Here's my card to honor you.

Helen- had to dip into your wonderful gallery again- this time, inspired by your card the Mother of all Butterflies- loved the wonderful combo of orange, black, turquoise! Here's Wonderful Leaves- made with stamped leaves embellished with die cut and embossed leaves- a "tag" with my sentiment, and a triple strand bow combo. Have a great Sunday!

I could spend a month in your beautiful gallery, Helen. Congratulations and have a wonderful week. My card is Pet Loss Card, inspired by your Lots of Happiness. I kept a "pet" theme - and the basic design. What really caught my eye on your card were the paw prints added to the background...My kittie had to go off center to show off the paw prints I added.
