To Make a Card Or Clean House


My plan today was to get an early start on some neglected housework but my urge to make a card won out.  I am blaming that on the challenge at City Crafter blog who by the way are celebrating their 4th Birthday.  Their challenge is to CASE one of the cards shown on their blog today.  I chose to CASE the card shown at left.  I seldom Case cards because I am not sure how much to copy....it does mean Copy And Share Everything, doesn't it?
I may have gone too far because I used the layout, theme, ribbon, pennants, twine, flowers, stitching, and bicycle theme.  I even tried to mimic the same pattern papers.  You be the judge of if I over did the CASEing.  But anyway I like the way the card turned out.
Challenges:
City Crafter Challenge Blog: CASE one of 4 projects. I did project 2 .
Happy 4th Birthday to CCCB
Simon Says: Make a Happy Birthday Creation.
Clear It Out Challenge: Anything Goes with a twist of faux or real stitching.
Seize the Birthday: Anything Goes
Craftyhazelnut 's Patterned Paper Challenge: April Challenge -Anything Goes using pattern paper to cover your card

Supplies:
Stamp: Bicycle from Papers and Such, Sentiment from Creative Vision
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Distress Inks Antique Linen, and Tea Dye
Sakura White Gelly Roll for the bike wheels  and Red Pen for faux stitching
Papers: Script Pattern from MME, All other from Crate Paper DIY Shop
Ribbon from GKD and Flowers from Stash
Spellbinder Dies

Now that my card is done and posted, it's time to get out the cleaning tools and supplies.

I enjoy all your comments. Thank you. Theresa
