This is my second card for the F4A253 challenge "A CASE of Admiration" - we are to CASE (copy and share everything) a card by a fellow stamper who has inspired or encouraged us.
Sue (IrishGreenSue) is one of those stampers. Not only does she have a wonderful gallery, but she leaves sweet, uplifting comments on cards. I chose this gorgeous card to CASE:
This card is testimony to the fabulous MISTI tool - I stamped this image four times during the process, and every intricate detail is perfect!
First stamped using VersaMark, applied sticky ep, melted applied glitter and heat set. Stamped again with VersaMark, applied clear ep and heat set. I wasn't satisfied with how it looked, so I repeated the steps.
I used the same process on the sentiment die cut, with the exception of the dots over the letters. For those, I used a scrap piece of cs and went through the same process, then used a small hole punch to cut the dots.
Sue, I can never thank you enough for your encouragement and sweetness! I hope you like this!
As always, thanks for looking!

such a gorgeous card, I can feel the love reaching out from your heart, both in admiration of Sue and the tenderness that is YOU, Jody. Couldn't be more beautiful in the monotones and the thick Rejoice!

A beautiful card! The angel looks so joyful and is stamped so well. A great way to honour Sue. I have just heard about the MISTI tool this week and it looks like a must have! I have a number of larger stamps that don't stamp all that well, so that would really be the answer.

Jody this is gorgeous!! I read about the MISTI here on an SCS forum. Read it, watched the youtube, loved it, bought it. Can't wait to receive it, especially after seeing how you stamped this image 4 times. I wrecked three pieces of photo paper trying to stamp this angel. Beautiful my friend.
