My card today is for the QFTD14 challenge and the IC where I got lot's of inspiration.
Congrats Linda on being the new reigning Queen. Hope you have a blast! I did while going through your gallery. I chose this one to case and was inspired by this one and this one .
I changed Linda's vase to a cup and her one flower into two poppies. Funny thing, I had drawn this bg a long time ago and never used it. Today it fit for one of the IC's I chose. I ran it through the cb after putting some ink on the dot side. So my dots are inward here.
Colored my flowers with re-inkers. Versa marked and clear epd the images and lines in my bg. Punched the corners like Linda's then put this on a white card that I sponged the edges with two colors.
Well, the dryer is buzzing for me. Hope you like my card....I will return shortly......TFL :0)

Hi there~
I love the look of this card! The bright colors... the technique reminded me a bit of a Van Gogh. I'm not really sure why...I really love the background. Isn't it great how we all save pieces here and there for who know how long? I love how you are using the debossed side on the bg and that you added ink!
I would love to CASE you on that, if you agree. Thank you for sharing!

I love how you cased Linda's card. Your cup of flowers is awesome! I've often thought of turning that folder piece, but never have - I like the bumps!!! Wonderful creativity today.

Dryer? Seriously sis, I think it can wait! (psst..turn the dryer back on tomorrow. We call that "ironing" in Clovis!) Ok, back to you. OMGosh, that bg is fabo! Inked the dotted side, eh? Hmmm...more info for the Mutnik files (this is where I keep stampin' secrets) Shhh......Cathy, your cards just make me smile! I love every one of them! High five for the honor you bring to the Queen!

Somehow-I just knew this was your card before looking-so CREATIVE! Love the lattice fence you created and the ink on the CB folder-one day I may have to try this-it looks AWESOME!
