STAMPlorations CASEplorations March

Hi Everyone,

come and CASE with us here at STAMPlorations!

Our guest designer for this month is going to be the one and only Betsy Feldman. I am sure you all know her from Papertrey and from her blog Paper Scissors Superheroes

Here is my CASE of Betsy's card:


Looking at this side by side I should have taken a more orangey yellow....oh well, funny that your mind thinks you have it right, but reality proves it wrong :(


I just love her card - the beautiful color combination and the soft, airy feeling - that's why I choose butterflies for my card. I also wasn't sure if water coloring would work with that mask, so I decided to play it safe and sponged.

So you want to play along? Case Betsy's card (this is a change from the prior rules) and link it up HERE - you have the whole month to join in! And of course - there are prizes to win!

I think you've nailed the colours and great idea about the soft and airy feel of Betsy's card being represented with the butterflies, fabulous job. Thank you so much for the inspiration.

Zitronenfalter gibt es im Spätfrühling. Ich hätte gerne erst mal etwas Frühling und nie mehr trübes Wetter. Das geht mir dermaßen auf den Gest, das kann sich keiner vorstellen. Deine Karte bringt etwas Licht in diese (fast) Finsternis.
Liebe Grüße

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fiftee...
