Happy Birthday...CAS(E) this Sketch #38

A *cas* post to share my CAS(E) this Sketch card; fabulous sketch and yes, it was a challenge! At first glance, this may 'look' simple, but nope!  It's definitely one for stretching and flexing those creative muscles.  All the fabulous submissions so far - and I imagine a number yet to come - reveal that we were up for the event - and what an event it was!  So many possibilities...

Here's the sketch:

My card is a smattering of My Creative Time birthday sentiments from several sets, as well as the negative portion of my new, ever-so-delicate Memory Box "happy" die.  Apparently the 'subway inspiration' continues to play....


Lining up those stamps was definitely 'interesting,' as was the masking. I'm starting to quite like this whole 'inking' thing...or maybe I just want to buy more 'stuff.'  Either way, inks rock!  If you have a chance, check out the 'all you need to know about inks' video from Jennifer M.  Awesome+++ I want alllll those inks, every one of them...

Thanks so much for dropping by; please let me know you did! Your comments definitely brighten my day!

NOTE:  I'm adding this to the Do More with Less Challenge, inspired by Savannah O'Gwynn.  Let me say, plenty o'masking happened here...and trying to keep the sentiments 'in line').  If you haven't added your masking creations yet, do so before August 9th.  See you there!

    Gosh, Carol, that is such a clever idea! It would never have crossed my mind to try something like that. Might have to CASE it! ;) Keep playing with your subway art inspiration as it is inspiring to all of us who read your blog!

    LOL! I loooooooove that you said you were flexing your creative muscles-- you are a HOOT!

    I think this fits the sketch PERFECTLY! I LOOOOOOOOVE the different sentiments and how you've cut "happy" in the center-- another AMAZING card! And I LOVE that red cardstock-- what a great background! Even though it took some time (to mask)-- it was TOTALLY worth it! FABULOUS:)

    THANKS again for joining in the fun with my challenge! Your love and support mean so much to me <3
