I have been MIA with Global Design Project, but this week we are CASEing my good friend, Brian King, so I just had to jump in and make a card for this week's challenge. I have been stamping a ton, but I am just not able to share anything with you yet. But give me a few weeks and I should be back to the Global Design Projects on a regular basis.
Brian has a way of making CAS (clean and simple) cards look amazing, but I struggle with it, so here is my "slightly" more embellished CASE of Brian's card.
I decided to focus on the layout for my CASE. I started with a Basic Black card base and added some This Christmas specialty designer series paper for the background. Next, I stamped the greeting from the Reason for the Season stamp set in Basic Black ink. I stamped and fussy cut some poinsettias from the same set using Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green ink to match the DSP. I also did some second generation stamping of the swirls from Timeless Textures stamp set with Crumb Cake ink. Of course, you know me, I had to add some Linen Thread to finish off the card.
I felt like the flowers needed just a little something more, so I added some pearls to the centers and while I was at it, I added a few more to the sentiment.
We would love to have you play along with us this week. Be sure to check out what the other talented designers/players have created for this fun challenge at the Global Design Project Challenge Blog.
