Today I am sharing a card for the next sketch at Seize the Sketch and I am also auditioning for a design team position over at CASE Study. The assignment is to share a design from a designer that inspires you and then show how you would "CASE" it. It was hard to narrow down who to CASE but one of my favourite card makers is Cindy Lovell. She is on my Card Concept team and I just love everything she makes. I was inspired by her card below...you can find it HERE.
Card by Cindy Lovell
I was inspired to use some fun designer paper. I usually use simple patterns but felt inspired to use something a little more masculine. I added a simple pennant and keep my images clean and simple as well because I wanted the sentiment to stand out like Cindy's. My image comes from a Stampin' Up set called "Cycle Celebration" and I loved the sentiment that came with it. It is actually a birthday set and so much fun!!
I am auditioning for a position at CASE Study because I want to stretch myself as a card maker and I want to learn how to improve my crafting skills. Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and to see my work.
