Owl CASE her all day long ;)

The woman who writes this blog has the sneaky kind of talent. She makes paper crafting look easy! Her cards are the reason I am trying so hard to become better at copic coloring. (Not that there is any here) But she posted this great card made with digital images and I just had to case it. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, you know ;) This one is mine:

Here is her card and blog: http://www.jans-gonestampin.blogspot.com/2012/09/paper-smooches-happy-camper_22.html

The art...er craft, of the CASE

CASE - Copy And Steal Everything... I do this a lot.. A WHOLE LOT! When I buy a new stamp set I go to Split Coast Stamper's AMAZING gallery for inspiration. Or Pinterest... also known as where I am at 4:45 at work ;)
I bought a new (ok a couple new) sets from Stampin Up this month and went on my usual quest. Which led me to this super cool card on Pinterest -

Except... I didn't have twine and after I embossed the paper, stamped and embossed the image, I realized by circle punch wouldn't go in the page like the example. So I used a nestie...only I didn't have a round one. And I had these great tags and I am not super crazy about sentiments stamped and embossed over. So I added that, too. I think it looks good. Seven of these to the OWH Box

So good, I turned it sideways, added the swirly ornament and did it again...six times for OWH!!
