This week’s #GDP412 is a CASE challenge. The source of inspiration for this challenge is a card created by WIlma de Korte, one of the talented GDP team members from the Netherlands.

HINT – CASE = Copy And Selectively Edi

Each time there is a CASE challenge we are reminded that we can take what we like from the design and make it our own. It might be the stamp set – the colors, the layout, the theme, the images – whatever we like that has inspired us to make a card of our own.

Here is the project this week that we can CASE this week:

I decided to turn the layout around to create a portrait tent card and chose a Christmas suite collection for my CASE submission.

I featured the Joy of Christmas Suite Collection for this CASE project.

The Pecan Pie cardbase was where I started. Then I cut two pieces of Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper for the angled layers under the Basic White top layer.

The Basic White layer had holly leaves stamped in Shaded Spruce. I adhered it to the card front, also at an angle.

I stamped some holly leaves, in Shaded Spruce, on to Shaded Spruce cardstock. Then I die cut them. I also die cut two other leaf shapes, several times, in Vellum.

The leaves were then layered and adhered together. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the layered leaves and placed them on the card front.

The seasonal greeting was stamped with Versamark before I sprinkled Gold Embossing Powder across it. After the powder was heat set I cut the greeting and added it to the card front.I tied a bow using the gold trim from the Simply Elegant Trim duo and placed it on the leaf bundle.

I stamped some holly leaves on the card insert and back of the envelope.

Finally, I added some embellishments from the Loose Holly Gems & Sequins pack.

In the coming days I have lots of projects using the Merry, Bold & Bright Suite Collection to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.
