Blogger's Challenge...sort of

Mistakes are the portals of discovery. -James Joyce
OK, there is a story here...this week's Blogger's Challenge was to CASE a fellow BCer...well, my mojo has taken a longer vacation than I did and I have been super busy this week so last night at about 11:00 I realized I better get busy on this challenge. I pulled up a few BC blogs and scrolled thru looking at all these Gorgeous cards and just didn't have the energy to replicate any of them...I really needed a CAS card. I found this CAS, 1 layer Cupcake card on Ida's blog Faith Artistry and just loved it! I went to work. Her's has a black outline and I messed up the sentiment b/c I drew the frame first and then realized it was supposed to have the sentiment along the bottom of the frame. Well this morning I actually Read her post...apparently the cupcake card was a CASE of the apple card next to it! So, My CASE is a CASE of a CASE! LOL! Oh well, I really was inspired by her cupcakes not the apples! Check out Ida's other work, she is an amazing stamper!
So...my CASE of a CASE...

Supplies:
Stamps: $1 Mike's Cupcakes, Hey Cupcakes (A Muse)
Paper: Kraft (Memory Box)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento,) Copics
Misc: Clear Crystals (colored with Copics to match,) White Gel Pen

Thanks for stopping by!
