Happy Friday, peeps! I've got a sweet little card today for a sweet friend of mine...she IS amazing...she just sent me a whole gallon of homemade maple syrup from upstate New York! What a friend! And since Cassidy has had a taste of real maple syrup on her pancakes, she is now a syrup snob...she won't eat anything else and gets mad if any of us eat "her" syrup! SO...we have lots of syrup that should last us for a while! So my card today is for her! I am playing with the Stamp Ink Paper challenge, which is to CASE the designer!
OF COURSE I had to CASE my sweet friend Sandy! I swooned when I saw this card! You can see the details of it on her blog here!
I started out by diecutting some sunflowers I had but then I remembered this sweet Decorate A Daisy set that retired a couple of years ago, so I inked it up with Crushed Curry and Basic Black and added a sentiment from Watercolor Wishes:
I did save the leaves I had cut from the sunflower die (Simon Says Stamp Radiant Sunflower) because I love the stitching and the detail; they complemented my stitched panel (Lil'Inkers) so nicely!
The gingham was stamped with a retired SU wheel that I took off the wheel and mounted on some EZ mount....so much easier to use that way! And finally, I added some pretty green sequins from my stash!
I loved Sandy's card and I hope she likes my CASE of it!
Cassidy loves my nephew's dog Remy...she was throwing him a stick in our front yard when the sun was going down...the light and glowing greenery was so pretty...it's really not captured in my photos as well as I would like!
Beautiful card, LeAnne! Love the sunflower you used. Matter of fact, I have a card here you made me yrs ago with that pretty flower on! It sits in my stamp room for inspiration! This certainly is a beautiful case of Sandy's card. Love it!!
