CASEing Pinterest



I love Pinterest for the beautiful cards that I can save by "pinning" them to a "board."  Some man asked me the other day..."Do you ever look at them after you pin them?"   "Yes, I do."  Today, I decided to do something more than look....after all, I pinned because I was interested in making something just like the item I pinned.   So I've decided to CASE some of my pinned tags and cards.  This first one is inspired by Eileen's Crafty Zone-- I have pinned several of her creations, primarily because of the vibrant colors and striking images.

The first thing that drew me to this tag was that wonderful Stampendous flower, one of my very favorite stamps.  The colors were equally appealing. I liked the textured cardstock Eileen used, so I dry-embossed my tag and flowers.  (The cardstock for the flowers began as white textured cardstock that I colored with Dylusions Postbox Red spray.)

Oh, how wonderful! And good for you! I look and pin when I get a chance and do enjoy going back and looking at what I pinned even if I'm not going to semi-copy it. I just love looking! It gets the juices flowing, if you know what I mean.
