#CTC266 - CASE our Sketch for an Easter Card - Week 2

Week 2 but don't panic you still have a week left to CASE an Easter card and add it to our Facebook page using the link over to the right:

Using this Sketch:

This week I used the Dinoroar DSP as my starting point as I wanted to incorporate the pattern with the little eggs in it. From there I chose the background Pretty Peacock as my base card, and the mat of Mango Melody was embossed with the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. 

Next I stamped the feature image from Forever Blossoms in Pretty Peacock ink and coloured using Mango Melody and Soft Sea Foam Stampin' Blends. I diecut the image with the Cherry Blossoms Dies and mounted it to a Stitched Shapes oval diecut in Soft Sea Foam to incorporate the colour I chose for my leaves. The oval and image have been raised using Stampin' Dimensionals. The greeting is the same as I used last week from Timeless Tulips, in Pretty Peacock ink onto Whisper White and then tucked it under the flowers.

Our sketch has been great to see interpreted in so many ways and I think it lends itself well to an any occasion card, just switch out the colours and greeting as required.

I didn't feel this photo showed off the card as much, but because animal pictures (of late especially) are making us smile, I promised Rove I'd still include it!. Daylight savings is upon us and nice to still be enjoying the sunshine in April.

Hope you are staying safe where you are. Time to pop over and see what our talented Tina has for us this week:

#CTC250 CASE a Layout from Page 46

CASE a card from page 46 this week:

For me, it was the card top left.  

I've mainly gone with the layout, using DSP. Onto a base layer of thick Whisper White. I've cut a piece of DSP from Dinoroar DSP and added fussy cut images from the same pack as needed to fill the area the leaves filled in the original. Such a fun pack for kidlet cards. In the end I made two - similar but with different colour ways. Seems too easy but a bit of change when you don't have little people to make for. 

The DSP has Whisper White Baker's Twine wrapped around and tied in a bow, with a greeting from Varied Vases stamped in Pretty Peacock ink.  The DSP panel has been raised with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Here they are separately: 

I still can't decide which I like best, but at the moment - equally:
