CASE the Catty – Thinking of You Card

Soft Suede Always Artichoke scored Thinking of You cards

Next week I will be posting about the new Borders Scoring Plate for the Simply Scored Tool.  Today I'm posting a project I made using the zig-zag pattern on the plate.  I've CASEd (copy & steal) this card from a recent sample in the Stampin' Success magazine (a demonstrator-only resource – LOVE IT!)

Because it can sometimes be a challenge to make "masculine" cards for the men in our lives, I decided to use colors and patterns to fit the bill.  Soft Suede and Always Artichoke card stock, together with their coordinating ink colors made this project super-simple but still with quite an impact.

I also used the NEW Ovals Collection Framelits featured in the current Spring Mini Catalog.

Here's my full list of supplies:

Stamps: Best Dad Ever (120399 wood, 120681 clear mount), Gently Falling (123802 wood, 123804 clear mount)

I hope you'll give the Borders Scoring Plate and the Simply Scored Tool a try. Come back Monday for some more information about these tools! I've loved having them as part of my crafting arsenal and I think you will, too!

Happy (Scoring) and Stamping!
