Sometimes....

it takes a little CASE'ing to get you going...or at least I have found that it is just what I need sometimes to get my creative juices flowing again.  I've been in a bit of  a creative slump lately.  Mostly because I have no time to stamp, but also because I am tired even if I do have the time.  I think it's just the cold, dreary weather.  Anyway....I had to come up with some items for my latest round of SIM, so I turned to trusty old SCS to find some cards that inspired me because I figured if I CASE'd them then they would hopefully inspire my participants as wel as myselfl.  I told them who made each original card and I created a basic sketch of the card for them to keep in My Digital Studio.  This was the first card I made and it was a CASE of Stacey's (slschaf771) card used the same stamp set but a different and very fabulous color combo.  I hope you like it!
