CASE Study Challenge #5

Today I have a card for the current CASE Study challenge! This month they are CASEing the super talented Mariana Grigsby. If you're not familiar with Mariana's work be sure to hop over to her blog. I absolutely LOVE her style, which I would describe as bold and colorful, definitely a favorite of mine!

So onto my card. I used the PTI CHA set, Four of a Kind, for the first time. I was very fortunate to win this set in a blog giveaway on Peggysue's blog, Roses by my Window. Thanks Peggysue, I LOVE it!


I was inspired by the beautiful flowers, butterflies, and embossing on Mariana's card, so that's what I went with on mine. I had a piece of pretty butterfly ribbon that I've been itching to use, and that worked perfectly here!

If you've never played along with CASE Study, you should give it a try, it's really FUN!

Stamps: PTI Four of a Kind, Polka Dots II, Fillable Frames
Paper: PTI Kraft, white, Raspberry Fizz
Ink: PTI black, Hibiscus Burst, Nick Bantock Sapmoss Green
Ribbon: from my stash, black crochet thread
Misc: Martha Stewart butterfly punch, Swiss dot embossing folder, corner rounder, gems
