CASEing Myself

The Stampin’ Up!® Only Challenge for the next couple of weeks is to CASE the designer. I am beyond honored that my card has been chosen for this challenge. For this challenge, I am CASEing myself.

I do CASE myself every now and then. I find a previous card I created and loved and then make some changes to use current products are make a similar card. It’s a great way to overcome the dreaded creativity freeze–when you just can’t think up a single new idea. In fact, we CASE each other all the time. Have you ever gotten inspired by a card you’ve seen and it sparked your creativity to create your own card? You’ve just CASEd a card.

CASE stands for Copy And Subtly Edit. So, it’s taking what you see and making a few changes to make it your own. You can copy the sketch, colors, products used, fun fold, or just use it as an inspiration. Let your imagination run wild.

Faux step card. Base fold is teal with patterned paper with purple and pink flowers and teal leaves. Inside of card is a white layer with a strip of matching patterned paper. The top step is purple cardstock with teal patterned paper with white leaves. The focal point front image is a memories & more card with a purple border, image of green leaves and purple flowers, and a center purple scalloped oval. There is a white sentiment label that says, "Thank you."

Card Details

I want to help turn your crafting stress into success. Need some help getting inspired? Try CASEing a card you’ve seen. You can CASE someone else or even yourself.

For my CASE of myself, I chose to use the same fun fold–the faux step card. To see a video demonstration along with paper dimensions, you can check out my post Faux Step Card Sneak Peek.

I also used a card from a Memories & More Kit for the focal image on the front. I added Designer Series Paper that coordinated with the Memories & More Pack I used and put a strip of that DSP on the inside of the card on the white layer meant for writing your message.
