CASE Study Challenge #195

This is a new one for me as I usually don't get a chance to make a card for the CASE Study Challenge until the day before it finishes but when I saw the inspiration card last night I knew exactly what I wanted to do.
This is the gorgeous card by the Guest Designer of the month Pamela Ho. I don't have any kraft paper unfortunately but I do have something that I haven't used for a while.....

My acetate has been feeling very left out of late, so thought I would take it out for a spin. And sorry about the photo, I just couldn't get those shadows in the acetate to disappear. 

I cut a strip from the card front and then put it back in with washi tape behind it. I then stamped with my flower stamps so that they overlapped on to the strip. I removed the strip and replaced with acetate. I could then find the middle and stamp the sentiment on the inside of the card. So happy it turned out the way I wanted!

The flower stamps are from Altenew 'Painted Flowers', the sentiment from Simon Says Stamps and the rhinestones from Kaisercraft.

They will be getting sick of me but I'm also going to link this card to the challenge at Addicted to Stamps #99 where their theme is 'Clean and Simple'. This is my third entry.

I've decided to also link to the challenge at One-Layer Simplicity Challenge #6 as their theme is 'I've been Framed'.

And for my final link, I'm going to enter this in the challenge at Casology - Week # 99 where their theme is 'Anniversary'.

Right, off to walk the dogs. Rather hard to walk both at same time as Oscar is older and walks slowly, whereas Bella is 2yrs old so wants to run everywhere. Gives me an arm workout too, which is a bonus!!

Take care
Shona
