Case Study 3rd Anniversary


Hello and welcome to Case Study Challenge 3rd Anniversary! Three years have passed and Case Study Challenge is still going strong and to celebrate the milestone, we are having our annual blog hop and I am so glad to be a part of it! You should have arrived here from the talented JJ Bolton

This year's theme is about inspiration and this beautiful card by Carina Lindholm caught my eye in an instant! And I work my design based on it.



Here is my take. I love the background hearts and hope to re-create something similar. I cut out 9 squares from patterned paper and punched out tiny hearts in each square. I hope you like this card as much as I do. Your next stop would be at Kristii Lockart

    I really like the pink and kraft together. Your stitching and staples are fun and the pearls provide some nice consistency. Thanks for sharing your card! --Yvonne

    Love your inspiration, and love your take on it. The blue punched out hearts, won my heart!

    Epic JOB on the anniversary Blog Hop.

    I also looked through a lot of your layouts, inspiring. I have a hybrid album project, and you got my creative juices flowing for sure!

    Love the patchwork look of your card and the pretty pastel colours. Every time I see stitching on a card it makes me want to get my machine out, looks so pretty.
