Hi there
I’m sitting here eating my salad (still trying to think it’s summer) but I should be eating something warm as I’m feeling cold – never mind.
The challenge this week at JAI is to CASE Nikki Spencer. I checked her entire blog and picked about 6 I’d like to CASE but have narrowed it down to these two here and here.
I needed to create a gift voucher holder for one of the guys at work who has just got married. Here’s my take:
I’ve decided that the next stamp set I buy is going to be a wedding one as I don’t really have anything suitable at present – here I’ve used the set Wedding Sweet which is more for the invite side of things.
My second CASE is a birthday card for Phil’s other uncle.
This stamp set has to be one of my all time favourites. I have stamped the image on watercolour paper and used my new found favourite accessory – watercolour crayons:) I have cut the car out and then used dimensionals to attach it to the backgrouns watercolour paper. The people and gifts are stamped straight onto the background paper.
Thanks Nikki for sharing your creations with us.

Both of these are great, and so different to each other! I am like you and don't have much in the way of wedding sets either so thankfully I don't have to make them very often.
Great CASEing of Nikki's work and I'm impressed that you have created not one, but two gorgeous projects. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week. Narelle
It was certainly hard to narrow down Nikki's creations to CASE, wasn't it? Too many gorgeous creations to choose from. I'm impressed you've done two, Paula! I love the red Petite Pocket; it's a lovely gift for your workmate. Your card is very cheery and cute. Nice job on them both! Thanks for playing along at JAI this week 🙂
Lovely – my fav is the second one – I love the bold colours and they way you have used the Ribbon. Chantell JAI
I can understand why you CASEd TWO of Nikki's cards as there are some many beautiful ones to choose from. I like your take on them both and thanks for joining in with our challenge this week.
Wow Paula a double case! They are both great and l especially like the Petite Pocket done in red it's gorgeous, you have given me ideas for Christmas now, Thanks!
Thanks for playing at JAI Paula.
