Here we are again at the beginning of another Time Out challenge! This time it is the CASE with a twist challenge and we have an amazing inspiration card from the lovely Kim Markatoff from Art Keeps Me Sane for you to work with:
I have to admit that I love these CASE challenges - it is great to use other peoples' fab designs as a jumping off point for a card. I am sure that I am not the only one who wanders around blogland and Pinterest looking for inspiration.....
I love the drama of Kim's card - the black base and masked flowers look so elegant with those jewel like colours. My CASE looks like this:
I went with a very similar layout - a panel popped up with masked flowers round the edge but my twist is that I used a white background to create a more springlike look. The flower stamps are by Clearly Besotted and the sentiment is by Hero Arts. I coloured the flowers in with my Spectrum Noir pencils.
This is an extra special challenge as it is sponsored by the fabulous Clearly Besotted with a £20 gift voucher for the challenge winner! That's got to be better than easter eggs :)
We are joined by the super talented Claire from Life on the Scrap Heap as our GD this week - her cards are stunning and her blog is so worth a visit. The rest of the fabulous DT have lots more inspiration for you over at Time Out.
I hope you take some Time Out this Easter to play along with us.
I meant to link up at CASology where the cue card is Spring but forgot to do it....as there is still time I am putting a cheeky link in :)
Thanks for stopping by :)
