Crazy Crafter's August Blog Hop with Special Guest - Wendy Cranford


Hi everyone and welcome to another fabulous Blog Hop with the Crazy Crafter's. This time we are CASEing (Copy and Selectively Edit) Wendy Cranford. Here is a link to her fabulous blog so you can find out more about her and be inspired :)


http://www.luvinstampin.com/about-wendy

The card I chose to CASE for this blog hop was one that absolutely jumped out at me! Maybe it was the colour combination or the sparkle of the sequins or even the hint of washi tape - but I absolutely loved it and knew this was a card I'd love to try and CASE. So here is the card that Wendy created- isn't it fabulous!!!!



and here is my take on the card:





This photo shows how the bird from Picture Perfect is sitting above the rest of the embellishments. I used the foam strips for this part so it was higher than the rest of the card. I also fussy cut it, so it would stand out on the card!



The sentiment is mounted onto Stampin' Dimensionals.



I used the same washi tape (Pop of Pink) that Wendy used on her card - I just love how it looked in the background and complimented the splatters on the left hand side of card using Awesomely Artistic.

Here is a collection of products I used to create this card:



Now don't forget to keep hopping (next up - Michelle Mills) and check out the other amazing Crazy Crafter creations for this blog hop and don't forget to leave a comment - we love getting feedback!

      Thanks Juan! Nothing like using the magical Misti to help perfect the layers! If only they had a die for the hummingbird that would make things easier!😂😂
