For those of you not familiar with the term CASE - in card making that stands for Copy And Share Everything. So you are to take a card that you like and copy it - I usually like to change a few things and put my own spin on it.Here is the Tic Tac Toe board that we were to pic from - I choose right down the middle!From top to bottom - Ribbon, Use a NEW In Color & CASE a fellow BloggerI chose to CASE one of my wonderful Upline's cards from Chris Slogar's blog - Buckeye Inklings- This is Chris' card that I was inspired by.So not only did I have to CASE a fellow blogger but I had to use Ribbon and a new In Color in order to complete a tic tac toe line!I used the new In Color Sweet Sorbet cardstock for my card base and then used a piece the new In Color 6 x 6" DSP for the patterned paper. My background paper is from the Sun Prints DSP and run through the Brick and Mortar 3D embossing folder. My geraniums are all die cut - where my inspiration card was stamped. I used the Sweet Sorbet and Real Red for the flowers and Pear Pizzaz and Garden Green for the leaves. I also used the new Deckled Rectangles Dies for the white base behind the geraniums.My favorite ribbon is the same ribbon that Chris used on her card - the Black & White Gingham Ribbon so I duplicated her bow. I added 4 Classic Matte Dots at the corners to tie in the black a bit more.Now, it is on to see what the other bloggers have used as inspiration and what they have created.
