CASEing and the Meant To Be Bundle

Meant to BeLast but not least….the final card from my group’s Winter Stamp Camp.  Tammie’s lovely card is made with the Meant To Be Bundle and all of those fun hearts!

Simple, yet elegant.  The only stamping on the entire card is the little sentiment.  Die cut hearts, a little bit of ribbon, some layers and you have a lovely card.

Do you know what CASE means in the stamping world?  It means Copy And Share Everything.  We as stampers love to look at each other’s cards.  When we CASE or copy someone’s card it’s not that we’re too lazy to come up with our own idea….we just love the card someone else made.  Many times, as Tammie did here, we just CASE or copy the layout/design of the card.

Do you get inspired by other stamper’s projects?  I know I do.  When I post someone else’s project on my blog or Facebook page or if I CASE someone’s project I like to give them the credit.  It’s almost a form of flattery to have your project CASEd.

I hope you’ve enjoyed all of the Stamp Camp projects I’ve shared.  I’m heading up to the mountains for a week later today so next week’s posts may be a little sporadic.  I’ll definitely be back in full force on Monday the 18th.  Have a great day.  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Meant to Be Bundle

Meant to BeWho loves hearts?  I sure do.  I was pretty disappointed when the Sweet & Sassy heart framelits retired.  There’s always some type of project that you need a heart on!  That means I was pretty excited then when I saw the new Occasions Catalog and the Meant to Be Bundle.  HEARTS!!!!  Woo Hoo!  I will probably still hang on to my Sweet & Sassy Framelits though….a girl can never have too many heart framelits!  Ha!

Below you will find a Stampin’ Up! video about this bundle, how versatile it is and some little tips about it.  Enjoy!

I sure do love COORDINATION!  Two bundles, one suite!  I love it!  Have a great day.  Take care and Happy Stamping!
