{FTH} C.A.S.E It Blog Hop

Welcome to our From the Heart Stamps blog hop. We have a “CASE it” theme this month. 
Each team member will be showcasing a card CASE-D (copy and share everything) from another teammate. 

As you hop along, please leave a comment on each blog. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win an image of choice from the FTHS store. Additionally, one lucky random winner from the comments on the FTHS blog will win a $15 voucher to the FTHS store!

If you have arrived from Brenda's Blog, then you are in the right place, if not why don’t you start on the From the Heart Stamps blog, so you don’t miss anything.

My C.A.S.E. subject was Lyn  and I C.A.S.E.'d this beautiful card of hers HERE 
Now here is my project, using Easter Egg Tulip
Medium: Copics
Glitter Glue: Stardust 
Die: Taylored Expressions (Thanks) 
Other: Fun Foam (Michaels) 
She used a tutorial from Splitcoastampers, which she does provide in her post.
I, however; have an easier method for you!!
My SECRET is FUN FOAM!!!
You can find it at Michaels or JoAnn's for about $1 per sheet!!
It's easy because you just cut it once and it gives you the dimension, without the gluing and alignment of 3-4 layers!!  
***  I also use this material for creating my shaker cards too!!***

Now head over to Cammy's Blog and see what she has created.

Thanks for hopping with us today. The hop will end on Monday, March 7th at 6 am EST. Winners will be posted on the From the Heart Stamps Blog on Wednesday, March 9th.

Sharing this card in the following challenges: 
Daring Cardmakers: March Elemental Inspiration
Flower Tulips, colors of the Tulips and BIG Letters

Hugs.

  1. This is just beautiful! I love how you kept the idea of a sentiment die on the bottom but just used "Thanks" instead of "Hello." Both cards do a great job showing off this lovely spring digi Faith created! Thanks for the tip about using fun foam!

  12. Calypso, this is gorgeous...great job on the case! I love using the fun foam also (it's really cheap at Walmart IF you can find the colors you want, I think I pay $.36 and that's with Hawaii's inflated prices!).

    1. Brenda, thank you for the comment on my card!! The sheep I purchase is about 12 x 18, which sounds like it works out to be the same price, if you sheets are 8.5 x 11. :) I love this stuff!!
