It’s time for CASE Study 81 and the second week with muse Laura Fadora, I hope you all popped over to her blog last week to check out her amazing work. I am loving her as a muse, I have been feeling a little un-creative at the moment so having her to inspire me has helped. I realise feeling un-creative at times is normal and most people experience it at some time…right? It’s not just me!
I loved, loved, loved this weeks card when I first saw it! It is using my one favourite colour combo White, Black and a Beige tone which I think is ever so elegant, so I have used Stampin’ Up! Whisper White, Basic Black and Sahara Sand. I had not yet used Fabulous Florets from the current Australian Summer Mini {which ends this month kids}I think it is a great little set and one that I will keep for a long time now I have started using it. I have stamped the outline of the flowers in Basic Black ink on Whisper White Cardstock then taking inspiration for the chair on Laura’s card I have stamped a floral flourish design {image from Clearly For You} over the flowers using Sahara Sand ink then cut them out. With the largest flower I have cut out two flowers; the first layer is the full image; the second image I have cut only the top 5 of the petals, this adds dimension when the flowers are layered on top of each other. I realise Laura has not plain backgrounds on her card but I still create my CASE Study cards with little bits of Teneale so I have created a background by stamping the flower outlines in VersaMark on Sahara Sand Cardstock. I took inspiration from the ribbon detail, mine has only one flag tip and the other a bow but the bow is in place of the button.
As you know I love to finnish my cards with a pretty inside…

Very pretty card. Love the tan and black color combo and the way you stamped the background and overstamped the flowers. TFS
Gorgeous job on everything. Such a beautifully designed card.
Gorgeous Teneale! I love how’ve you stamped the flourishes over the flower – it’s very effective (might have to CASE this idea if that’s ok?). You’ve also used a gorgeous colour combo – it doesn’t look like you’ve been uninspired lately.
