CASEing ANTHONETTE

It was a pretty sad sight yesterday in my craft room ... seeing an experienced stamper like myself attempt to create after being away from it for several weeks. It took me several attempts until I finally CASEd this awesome card by Anthonette Chavez! Anthonette's card has always been one of my favorites, and CASEing it at least got me started! Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever figure out how to incorporate my craft with working full-time (+ laundry, cleaning & cooking ... ugh!). I'm feeling like there's not enough of me to go around these days. (whine, whine, whine!)RECIPE

I feel your pain, Nancy! I've been in the same boat lately...so busy and burning the candle at both ends. I stamped this weekend, too! I've missed it soooo much! Love your version of Anthonette's layout...this witch's hat is too cute!

Hi Nancy,
Thanks for making my day even more happy. I'm flattered to see my card CASEd! I loved your card too! I wish I had the Eat, Drink & Be Scary set. I love it every time I see it used.
