It is time for another CASE challenge…..Copy And Share Everything.  For the month of May the CASE Study challenge is CASEing Agnieszka Malyszek.  The card this week include some great elements…..green and brown color combo, butterflies, lace and a tag.

I also made a card to CASE her card from last week but didn’t get around to posting it.  I thought I would share it along with this weeks challenge.  What did I love about her showcased card from last week????  The red fine lined stamped florals on white, the border of green stripes at the bottom, and the pearls.

I love the inspiration from other stampers that this challenge site offers….it is always so much fun to “copy” these very talented artist!!  Thanks CASE Study for these fun challenges!!
