I CASED my card design from a card by Stampin’ Up!; you can see more samples from Stampin’ Up! on my website here.  They have always been there, but you have to click on the “Ideas/Great Ideas” tabs to access them!

Look at the original card below.  Sometimes when you CASE (copy and share everything), it is copied exactly and sometimes  you change the original design to make it your own.

I liked the design of the original card but changed it to use stamp sets that I had in my collection.   The grid background stamp on my card is from the Timeless Textures stamp set.

Since my background image was an open grid, I wanted to use a solid image over the top and choose to use the smallest butterfly from the Kinda Eclectic stamp set.
