Over the last months, I've been pinning the odd card or two that's caught my eye and knew that I would find something inspirational over there to use. The biggest problem was, which one?
In the end, I decided that this card (from week #29) from Amanda at Craft Paper Girl was the one for me.
I loved the double matting, the ribbon and the cluster. I had also had Jovial envy but not having any in my stash and as ever, determined to use my scraps, I improvised with what I did have. To "selectively edit", I decided to make a landscape card and to make my leaves from paper.
I think I still like the original best but another card ready to go...
I think I'll be making a copy of yours ... It's fabulous. I'm liking the double mat
ReplyDeletelovely case...both your card and Amanda's are wonderful. Need to get back on the JB wagon been gone for a couple weeks!
ReplyDeleteoooooooooooooooh! i ♥LOVED♥ that card of amanda's, too, and i adore what you've done with it! i think my favorite part of the "CASE" experiment is seeing *HOW* each belle will interpret the card they choose... and i love the way you've been 100% faithful to the original while using STUFF YOU HAVE! brilliant & clever! ♥
ReplyDeleteps: totally agree about CHOOSING being the hardest part! i think next year i could just go thru the JB archives and CASE one card a week...i'd never be short of ideas!!! :)
As Christmas approaches, I'm getting more and more envious that you have so many cards ready to go. Both you and Amanda are great cardmakers - and preplanners!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful, Lisa!!!
ReplyDeleteoh très joli lift, simple et très chic biz
ReplyDeleteDARLING! Loved your version of the card and especially your hand cut paper leaves! You rocked it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment too! :) xo

Great card! Love the original, but yours is stunning, too! Copying cards appears to be just as hard as copying someone's signature, which is a good thing, because it means that all our cards will prove to be "originals" after all. Hope you like what I did with your JB #15 entry. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat an absolutely lovely CASE ... I love your paper leaves and the color combination in your design ... so glad you joined our jingle belles fun.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful original and a beautiful CASE! :)
ReplyDeleteI love your interpretation. The background paper you chose works well with the snowflake leaves. Beautiful!
