Bits and Pieces for A Blog Named Hero

Case me a Christmas card with Jenny Colacicco

Welcome to Case me a Christmas Card for 2021 - a Christmas Card blog series! 

From October to December, I will link to a series of guest cardmakers on my blog. I will CASE one of their cards, and they will CASE one of mine! CASE stands for either Copy And Share Everything, or Copy And Selectively Edit. It's about getting inspiration from cardmaking friends, but making a new card that is our own. And, of course, the card we each make has to be a Christmas card!

Background

In November 2016, I started this a little series on my blog. It started with me wanting to challenge myself to step outside my comfort zone with my Christmas cardmaking, so I asked friends to challenge me to do something different. 2016 challenges included using embroidery thread on a card, making a food themed card, making a geeky Christmas card (it had the Tardis on it) and making a dinosaur themed card. 

In 2017, I asked some of my cardmaking friends to join me with these challenges. Then, in 2020, I changed things up a bit by asking each of my guests to CASE one of my cards and I would CASE one of theirs. Ardyth Percy Robb made a video in 2020 (linked here) of a 5 step process that I use all the time when I am making a CASE of anybody's card, so I encourage you to check out her video!

Today's guest

Today, my guest is Jenny Colacicco. I have CASEd two of her cards that you can check out HERE.

 All of the products I used are linked below :)  

And I made a video! 

This is the card I Cased:

Online Card Classes Day 11

 Today's class at Online Card Classes was all about adding snow. I added loose glitter to my die cut snowflakes, and white puffy embossing powder from the most recent My Monthly Hero kit from Hero Arts to the tops of my Santa's Snowy Hills die.

Case me a Christmas Card with Jenny Martin

Welcome to Case me a Christmas Card for 2020 - a slight variation on my annual Challenge me a Christmas Card blog series!

From October to December, I will link to a series of guest cardmakers on my blog. I will CASE one of their cards, and they will CASE one of mine! CASE stands for Copy And Share Everything - but it's not about just copying a card. It's about getting inspiration from cardmaking friends, but making a new card that is our own. And, of course, the card we each make has to be a Christmas card!

Today, my guest is Jenny Martin Rawling. I have CASEd one of her cards that you can check out HERE. 

 All of the products I used are linked below :) 

 

This is the card I Cased: 

 Ardyth came up with a genius acronym to help you make a Case of a card without making a direct copy of it - LIMES. I am going to be using this acronym for all my Cases from now on: 

List: stamped images along top and side edges, pine cones, green, brown and red, lots of white space

Include: stamped images along top and side edges,

Modify: blues

Exclude: pine cones, not much white space

Spin: snowflakes, sequins

Jenny also Cased one of my cards - you can find her post HERE.
