CASE = Copy And Share Everything
Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for February 2016. We are thankful you stopped by to take a look at our new 2016 Blog Hop monthly themes. This month we are CASE-ing a project shown in a current Stampin’ Up! catalog. After all, with the Annual, Occasions and Sale-a-Bration catalogs available right now, there is much inspiration to choose from. We hope you enjoy our creations.
You may just be starting the Blog Hop or may have come from the previous link from the Line-up on the Pals Blog Hop listing shown below. The full lineup will help you move along from blog to blog so you may see all the projects.
Here is my project:
You may recognize this from the 2016 Occasions catalog, page 16. It is part of the “Love Blossoms” product suite. If you know me, or if you’ve been reading my blog, you know how much I love the product coordination with Stampin’ Up! products. This product suite really delivers when it comes to product coordination!
While the Bloomin’ Hearts thinlits die may be the star of this product suite, the Bloomin’ Love stamp set is the supporting actress! This card features the floral heart heat embossed in gold on a piece of Designer Series paper from the coordinating Love Blossoms Designer Series Paper stack which was shaped using the Lots of Labels framelits. This shaped piece is the focal point of the card, but the details make it special! The small flowers were stamped in Rose Red ink on the Rose Red card stock to frame our shaped paper. A piece of Satin Ribbon and a string of pearls, and the little wooden heart all hail from the Love Blossoms Embellishment kit. A few pearl basic jewels randomly placed tie everything into place.
TIP: While it may look like I used Rose Red for my card base, I actually used Whisper White card stock cut and folded to a standard 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ size. Then I cut a piece of Rose Red cardstock to the same size. This allows me to: 1) -Wrap and adhere the ribbon to the back side of the cardstock layer before I glue it to the card base. 2) Have the inside of my card be white so it is easy to write on. I like to keep things neat & tidy including the insides of my cards.
Thanks for visiting My Stampin’ Space. Please leave me a comment at the end of this post and tell me what you think of my project. To continue with the hop, please refer to the Blog Hop Line-up below. We hope to see you on next month’s Pals Blog Hop! – Nancy

Very nice card Nancy!
Beautiful CASE, Nancy.
This is such a sweet card Nancy. A feeling of an inviting front door or garden gate. Beautiful.
Nancy, such a beautiful card!
I like your tip about using a white base and being able to wrap ribbon. Also, writing on the inside is easier with Whisper White, of course. Lovely card.
Beautifully CASEd card, Nancy! Love your take on the inspiration card!!
Nancy I love the use of the pearl string. I’ve been wondering what I was going to do with that. I guess I missed this in the caty. Thanks for CASEing this card. It’s beautiful and now I have a great idea how to use my pearls 🙂
Loved your write-up, Nancy! You used a good sample for making all of your points and I loved the tip. Great job!
