Card Swap Chain Series 2 - CASEing Cheryl

Back in April we started our second series of the Card Swap Chain, arranged by the lovely Tracy Held. The idea is the we each made a card and sent it to another person in the chain, who would CASE it and send it on to the next person. Once we had all CASEd the card the final version came home to the original creator.  Now its time to share the journeys each of our cards went on with a series of blog hops, where the hop will be in the order of the card's journey.

The chain started with this cute and cuddly card from Cheryl, this is such a cute stamp set and I really loved the way Cheryl added pops of colour. 

If you are hopping along you will know that my card is the second one in this chain, so there are lots of similarities with Cheryl's card. I kept with a busy DSP with small flowers for the background and then added bold colours from Mediterranean Blooms Suite for the focal elements, picking up the colours in the mattes.  

Time to keep hopping to see how this card was interpreted for the rest of the chain, and if it is still recognisable by the end of the chain.  

Happy Stamping
