From The Heart Stamps Blog Hop - CASE It!

It's the first Monday of the month and welcome to May's From The Heart Stamps Blog Hop!  The theme for this month is:

CASE It!

Each of the Design Team were assigned a team member to CASE - I got Angela and here is her card that I choose:

I like the colours and the angles plus just how clean and simple it is without looking too plain!  And here is my take on it:


I've used Birdbrain Balloon and coloured it with Promarkers plus added glossy accents to the eyes.  The embossed panel is a Sizzix folder and I've added die cut numbers from the same pink card, cut with an unbranded metal die and I've added glitter glue over the top for extra sparkle.

The silver discs are also an unbranded metal die cut and the pink card is from my stash.

Good luck with the hop - you should have arrived at me from Michelle if not, go back to the beginning which is the FTHS blog and make sure you leave a comment on each blog as you hop by as there will be one lucky participant picked from each blog comments who will win a FTHS image!  I'm the last stop in the hop - please leave me a comment and then go back the the FTHS blog.
