It sure was hard to choose a card to case from Kathy's wonderful gallery. However, I chose this card to case: TLC297 Bontanical Sympathy by Kathy LeDonne at Splitcoaststampers, mainly because I love this stamp set and never seem to use it enough, and I love what she did with it on this card. I stamped my script in Early Espresso and over stamped my image in Old Olive. I then matted that on Early Espresso which I used the MS Arched Lattice Border on. My Old Olive large mat was embossed with the Sizzex folder and then matted on Very Vanilla and adhered to my Early Espresso cb. (Oh, I stamped my sentiment in Early Espresso before I dry embossed with the folder). I then stuck a Vintage Brad in the corner of my stamped image and popped that up. I kept the layout and colors the same, just changing up a couple elements. Have fun with your reign Kathy. TFL ladies.

I am so happy you chose that card to CASE? That set does have the most wonderful images. I think you've inspired me to pull mine back out, as it has been a while. I think your version is lovely and probably much quicker to make than my original!

Your card is beautiful....I've always loved that set too. One of the first cards I ever saw online was made using this image and I was just FASCINATED by it.....it was before I knew that art stamps even existed and I had not yet heard of SU. It remains to this day one of my all time fave images. TFS!

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
life is something that happens only when you run out of cardstock
