Hello friends! Danielle here as your hostess for this week's challenge.
Have you ever looked at the AMAZING and beautiful creations that the Krafty Girls
share each week (and especially during NEW release weeks) and thought to
yourself..."I'd really like to try that"?  I know I have - numerous times.
So...I decided to make the theme for this week's challenge
CASE a Krafty Girl (p.s. this does include Kimmie too).   
What does that mean?  Well...CASEing is the art of Copying and Self Expression.
That is you copy or closely mimic a creation or style and put your own personal
twist of some sort on it.  It's quite flattering to be CASEd (I think {smiling face})
and it gives you a chance to stretch yourself a little bit and try something different.
We have such a talented team of Krafty Girls with such different styles.
I wanted to CASE them all!!

Not to worry though...if CASEing isn't in your comfort zone or desire this
week then the other option is to use the fabulous March Sketch instead.

I saw an amazing card that Krafty Girl Deborah made last month
using the NEW Buds & Blooms clear stamp set and a gorgeous
watercoloring technique and decided that this was the one I needed
to CASE.  Here's my CASEd card:

My self expression is a different sentiment (mine is
from the Love Story Sentiments set) and a
a different way of adding the sentiment to the card.

And here is Deborah's gorgeous card:


Which Krafty Girl will you CASE?
Have fun looking back through all the Krafty Girl's creations!
Or...will you use the March Sketch?
