First, I loved this hombre card made by mashing a bit of Gelato into embossing paste, and I CASE'd it. The hombre doesn't show up at all in the photo, but it goes from yellow to orange.
I guess, truth to tell, I've CASE'd all the rest of these too, trying out techniques and products I've seen somewhere and pinned to Pinterest.
This last one was a bit of serendipity. I started with a large card front, but didn't like the stenciled squares so I redid them in different colors on another card. Then I couldn't make up my mind what color I liked for the "happy" word, so I kept stamping it on my reject card front. When it was done, I kinda liked it, and thought it would be OK cut down with a stitched rectangle die and mounted on a kraft card base. I often find a way to use my mistakes and that's very satisfying!
