A Different Challenge

[click here for MFP's card]

Jumping in here with a different challenge - Flourishes!  They had the most awesome sketch, I just had to use it!  Then, they had a CASE the DT challenge.  Well, I am all about that too! 
Here is the sketch:
Here is my card:
I used an older set of Flourishes Poppy Patch for this card.  I don't even know if it is still around!  I also used this gorgeous bg paper from  DCWV The Immortal Love.  I just love this paper!

For my CASE card I popped over to Stacy Morgan's Blog and used this card

to make this card

On this card I used Flourishes Beauty in Nature , along with Timeless Quotes.  Again, I don't know if these have been retired or not, but they are classics in my opinion.

Just FYI - CASE stands for Copy and Share (some say steal) Everything. However, when I case a card, I (and most stampers) change a few things so you aren't really copying everything, more like you  are inspired by the card to create your own version.  However you do it, I love caseing cards and some of the time I even learn something new!
I had fun doing these 2 challenges -- Flourishes is picking random winners for this month's releases, and I will be honest that is the main reason I played!  They have some killer sets this month! 
Thanks for stopping by!

Stacy is so very CASE'able! I love her cards. I've CASE'd her before, too! Both your cards turned out just fabulous! Wonderful job with both the sketch and the CASE. Good luck!
