Loved looking at all Dara's cards. She has always amazed me from the first time I saw her making cards while afflicted with carpal tunnel syndrome and then while recovering from surgery. Nothing slowed her down. My hands hurt thinking about it, and she continued to persevere. Great gallery, Dara.
The card I chose to CASE is one Dara made for Father's Day last year. I need a number of male birthday cards, so I picked this card mojo89-Fathersday by Dara at Splitcoaststampers and turned it into a birthday card for one of my SsIL.
I changed the colors, number of layers, added corner adornments, added embossing and used my Extra Large Two-Step Bird Punch that I just adore.
The DP is from the Linen Closet stack.
Congrats, Dara.
I apologize for typos. My dog has her head on my arm and makes typing a little difficult.

Oh my, Lori, what a keeper this one is done in those soft and light colors. Your cased card is lovely and has so much detail. Whoa, girl, you really had it goin' on today with this one, girl.

This is just perfect for a masculine card! That CS DOES look like linen---and I love that nice embossing on the center panel. I have that folder and always forget about it!

This is very pretty and I love how you used the little twig on the sentiment piece. Just a beauty!
