CASE of Myself

Just in case you don't know what CASE stands for, it means to "Copy and Selectively Edit". Papercrafters use this term when they copy someone else's creation. I just wanted to clarify that because as I read my post title I thought it sounded as if I thought a lot of myself...like I am egotistical or something! So...NO! I am not! :) But I did really like my Pretty Princess card!

Now that we have that out of the way...I needed yet another birthday card for a little girl. This one is for a soon-to-be 4 year old. The wrapping paper covering her gift has Fairies on it, so I thought this set would be perfect!

I used the same layout (SC183), but made a couple of tweaks. This is a fast card to make and I love how it comes together with the Cuttlebug embossing folders.

Stamps: Fairy Nice (SU)
Ink: Vick Bantock Lamp Black by Ranger, Copics to color the image
Paper: Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery, Lavender Lace, GP White, Going Gray
Accessories: CB Embossing Folders (Swiss Dots, D'vine Swirls), CTMH Grosgrain Ribbon, Stickles

Thanks for stopping by!

For a card you say was "quick and easy" -- it is of princess quality. It is so sweet and I know that the little birthday girl will be delighted. My granddaughter just turned 5 and thinks she is (don't know how to underline for emphasis) a princess. Cheers! Martha Kay

Such a pretty "girly" card. I am sure the girl that got this adored it. I love that stamp and the CB layers you used.

As the mother of a 4 year old girl, I can say that card will be a huge hit. My daughter would probably put it on her nightstand forever. She has a thing about pretty cards!
