CASED gratitude card

Don't miss out on my Blog Candy give away for hitting 50,000 hits. You must go to the right POST and leave a comment before 9:00 on Wed 25th in order to be eligible. This card was totally inspired by Stephanie. She loves to particiapate in the Loonie Stamper Challenges ... and as you know, so do I!! So I like to pop onto Stephanie's blog and she is so great and makes some beautiful cards!! Now, my card doesn't look nearly as nice as hers ... my sentiment isn't as big and I think my square of designer paper is too small. Her dimensions are just perfect - as you can see HERE. But I loved her card so much, I still had to make one with what I had. Part of the reason my designer paper square is too small is because I used the sample that PTI offers on their site...I don't own any of the actual paper. Supplies: Stamps - Beautiful Blooms (Papertery Ink); Paper - Melon Berry, Select White, and a small square of Green Tea Leaves designer paper (sample) (all Papertrey Ink); Ink - Versamark, Jet Black (Ranger); Other - button, hemp, dimensionals. So, you can see that Stephanie's card is nice than mine, however, I still kinda like mine. Have a great stampy day!! Donelda

Scale is so important, but I think you improvised beautifully here!

Love it.
I love the great economy of using the sample square on your card. I am all about keeping this craft I have chosen affordable.
Thanks for sharing.

The background is the perfect accent to focal square and the orange really brightens up my dreary weather day!
