This is also for our CASE of admiration challenge - There are so many people who I have learned from and been inspired by here at SCS, so I may need to do several cards for this challenge, but this card was inspired by Bridget Finlay. Time and time again her cards jump out at me in the gallery - I love her use of color, her white space and the bold, elegant designs she creates. I don't see her in the galleries as much as I used to, and I definitely miss her contributions - and kind comments. Here is the card that inspired mine (I couldn't find it in her gallery, but found my pin of her card): http://www.pinterest.com/pin/400187116863398414/
Thanks Bridget for your inspiration - I could case your cards all day, every day!!
The background is stenciled, stars are punched from glitter cs. Some are popped up for dimension.

I love these colors, and I love this card design. Great job bringing both challenges together. I love Bridgette's cards too, and these are some of my fave colors. Congrats on "bee"ing the queen bee - well deserved!

Wow! You have taken Bridget's wonderfully bright and cheerful card and translated it into my favourite colours. I had not seen this card before, but really think I would like to CASE it sometime too.

Maura, you're right, I haven't been on SCS so much lately, so I'm very glad I stumbled across this beauty - just love it, some of my favourite colours and your stenciled bg is fabulous! Thanks so much for your kind words!!
