Thanksgiving Card

I started out CASEing one of my favorite stampers, Mary Brown, but found out that I am not an expert at cutting out leaves and arranging them beautifully on the front of my card. My card has leaves randoming stamped in the background.
I really like the way it turned out--although cut out, beautifully arranged leaves would have been nice. LOL

Tribute to Mary Brown

My inbox is FULL of card samples from stampers all around the world. I should be in a support group of some kind. I have 1000s of jpegs of cards that are just too pretty to delete and I just never seem to find the time to move.

A couple weeks ago, I decided that I was going to CASE one of my favorite stampers, Mary Brown. My inbox has over 100 cards of Mary's to choose from. Mary makes the most incredible cards. Every morning before the kids wake up, I check my email. Mary Brown's are always the first to be opened. :) Thank you, Mary!

These are Mary's 3 cards that I decided to CASE. Aren't they beautiful?

The first one uses the Punched Posies set from the Summer Mini that just expired--CORRECTION (Thanks, Juliana) the mini doesn't end until the end of August. You still have a few days left to order from it!

I had to have the Punched Posies set. I love any set that incorporates punches so I don't have to cut everything out by hand. :)

The second card uses one of my favorite new sets, Just Believe.

I wasn't sure about the new in-colors, but now I'm pretty sure they are fantastic. :)

This card, I changed Mary's sentiment to suit my needs. My sentiment is from the Just Believe set. The GORGEOUS stencil is Folk Flowers. There is a second stencil in the set that is just as beautiful. They are a definite must have! You can find information about the stencil here.
