I usually take a break from the challenges on Sunday...I'm often playing with my nephews. Since we went to a movie yesterday (Monkey Kingdom..I learned a lot!) I'm free today to make a card in Francie's honor. She is so talented, one of my favorite stampers here on SCS and she has a unique style...one which for me is hard to CASE. I chose this card ..it was actually my third choice. I had attempted two other cards and my version just wasn't cutting it. Perhaps I needed Dolly , the insomniac dog, at my side..Francie can you lend her out?? I wanted to capture Francie's bright, bold style. From her original card I changed the butterflies to a bird, added a ribbon and a branch. Thanks for taking a look!

OH WOW, WOW, WOW Polly, I knew which card you CASED right away. I am going to ban you from CASEing my cards because I like yours so much better. I love the inks you used... I have never heard of that brand. The ribbon is so perfect and the embossed bird on the branch is a fantastic alternative to the butterflies. Into my favs and pinned. You are increfible, my friend... thanks for playing in the challenge.
