C.A.S.E - Copy and steal everything

It's just another Manic Monday!

When you need a quick card or are stuck for ideas, use someone else's card design as inspiration. Commonly referred to as C.A.S.E.ing (Copy and Steal Everything), this is an often used strategy for creating cards. Lots of ideas can be found online on websites like Pinterest and Instagram. 
You can copy the ideas exactly, or put your own spin on it. I find that the more I CASE other stampers' cards, the more I start to formulate my own ideas. If you're new to stamping, it's a great way to get started. When I find myself with a little Stamper's Block, I CASE some cards and quickly find myself stamping away again. 
​
For my Crushed Curry Happy Day! card, I borrowed an idea from Cards by Rita. She used Melon Mambo and Old Olive, I decided to change it up and use Crushed Curry, Pear Pizzazz, and Rich Razzleberry. Also, Rita's card is a few years old and uses a stamp set I don't own. No problem! I just switched it out with the Friend Like You stamp set from the current Stampin' Up! catalog. I love how Rita tied a button on her ribbon and made sure to include this detail. Instead of having two layers of torn cardstock at the top, I sponged some Crushed Curry ink on the torn edge of my Whisper White cardstock.

To finish the card off, I did a little stamping on the inside. 

So, the next time you need a quick idea for a card, look for inspiration and copy away!
