TSG196- Case a Trendsetter (The Beary Best)

This week our challenge is brought to us by Jessie! She is asking you to CASE your favorite card by a Trendsetter!!  If you aren’t familiar with CASEing, just pick a favorite card by a Trendsetter, and use it to create a card of your own inspired by theirs, but different in some way!

Make sure you stop by the TSG Blog for all of the details and to find out how you can win a TSG gift certificate just by playing along!

The inspiration for my card is this adorable card made by Trendsetter Kim OConnell-

And here is my card-

I used the brand new stamp set The Beary Best and the image is a combination of paper piecing and colored with Prismacolors.

Stamps: The Beary Best
Paper: Early Espresso, DP is Notable from My Mind’s Eye
Accessories: Corner rounder, dimensionals, sewing machine, ribbon, Prismacolor Pencils
