My friend Nancy, nwilliams6, is today's FS! Woot! Woot! Congratulations Nancy. Here is Nancy's card that I finally cased: Cardinal Greetings
This was the 3rd card I tried to case, the others being failures! This was easy to do, but very frustrating. I either need new plates or a new Cuttlebug. Those pines were horrible to cut. I used the bow easy for the double looped bow. This pretty Sizzix ef is one of the larger ones so my card is a little bigger than A2.
This is also for the F4A - use an embellishment you have in abundance. As I looked around my room, I have an 8' shelf of ribbons!! Since twine came around, my ribbons are neglected! This ribbon is gold edged.
Congrats Nancy. You deserve this honor & I hope you enjoy your time in the spotlight!
Thanks for stopping by.

Karen, your card has such charm with your bright red cardinal nestled among the pine boughs and red gingham ribbon. The bg embossed design is lovely too.

What a fantastic case of her card and I can't wait to see that Bowdabra work! It's beautifully tied! Love the folder you used as a backdrop for the lovely cardinal! Wonderful card, Karen and a wonderful tribute to Nancy!
