You're My Hero~ CASE


Happy Friday everyone!

I'm bringing a quick card today that I did joining in on the CASE Study this month with Laurie Schmidlin as the muse. If you've been on any Verve blog hop's you'll know that she's a Diva with some super spectacular talent. I just happen to pick the Study week that was one of her simply powerful designs, which is why I have a quick card today. Here's my card using CASE Study #87 (link no longer valid so it was removed)...



I went with the heart and popped up elements from the inspiration card and used some fun pattern paper from Basic Grey's Picadilly stack pad.

My elements are all Verve die cuts and stamps except the dots popping out from around the collage. They are stamped with an eraser from nearby mechanical pencil, love improvisation sometimes. Here's how my card using my Verve.

I stamped the ribbon banner from the new Super Dad set released last week and die cut it out with the coordinating Ribbon Banner die. The I Heart U die set was used too, and adding a little more character I cut the heart from the i so it looked embedded. The U is stamped with a sentiment from Purely Sentimental, another new set from Verve. All this was popped up over some scraps of brown ribbon. I layered some pattern paper and Crumb Cake cardstock on the yellow cardstock base for a little more texture.






Details:
Stamps: Super Dad (Verve Stamps), Purely Sentimental (Verve Stamps)
Paper: Picadilly paper stack (Basic Grey), Crumb Cake (SU!), Yellow
Ink: Cocoa (CTMH)
Accessories: Ribbon Banner Die (A Cut Above Die, Verve Stamps), I Heart U (A Cut Above Die, Verve Stamps), ribbon, zig zag rotary cutter, pencil eraser

I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
