~CASE Study~




I recently started participating in the CASE Study challenges~lots of inspiration there!



This week, CASE Study Challenge #104,  we are to case one of the design team members.



I CASEd Clare's 4th Card Here.




One thing I love about Clare's work, is when she puts some surprise texture in her cards.



I love that!


I didn't add a paper ruffle, but I used soft colors and kept the strings for an unexpected "something" tucked behind the sentiment panel.




I also added crimping to 1/3 of the label.







My colors are inspired by 







Since I'm using Verve Words of Wisdom,

I love all the little design surprises on YOUR card, too. Love the partial crimping on the sentiment and how you incorporated those thread tails into the focal point. Wonderful card!
