CHASE... Inspired by Nature and Jodi!!

I'm totally Inspired by Nature as spring appears before us! Everyday there is something new to see that is poppin' out of the ground or turning green. (Another card made at my stamping retreat weekend!) Jodi at Stampin a Latte has "Inspired" me to CHASE a card she made this past Oct. Check her card out... She is so creative!

Here is what I came up with!! I changed the colors, used my Top Note, and added more butterflies! This card is pretty self explanatory. If you have any ??'s just e-mail me!

A quick post as we have Alex, our Kinship Partner, coming this afternoon. Such a nice day and I think I have a cold coming on... Yikes! So I better eat an orange for more vitamins... :)

Thanks for stopping by and visiting... SO SWEET! Enjoy the card and your day!

Smiles... Michelle :)

Michelle

Totally love this card and will definitely case it!!!!! Did you see the tutorial on Patty Bennett's blog on how to get the color behind the white top note so you do not have to cut it out? Awesome and so much quicker!!!

TFS Terry~~

Looks like you had a great time at your retreat. I'll have to check out the place sometime. There's another place not to far from me that hosts stamp and scrap events also. Actually 2 now that I think of it. I have never gone but maybe I will one of these days! My friends and I always get togehter at a shop one of them owns that is closed...nice and big and we can really spread out.

I love inspired by nature..your card is lovely! Have a great day!

This is lovely, my friend. You sure do rock with that Top Note die! If you're going to CASE a card, you might as well CASE Jodi... she is a very gifted artist... as are you!!!

I hope you aren't getting that swine flu! Be careful and take good care of yourself.

Love ya,
