I have the honor today to be the special guest for a blog hop hosted by some lovely British demonstrator friends, the Stampin' Creative Design Team! I'm a big fan of their work and was delighted to accept a guest spot. They have each selected a card of mine to CASE (remember, CASE means to "copy and share everything") and I can't wait to see which projects they chose to recreate.
Each blog is linked to all the others in a big cyber-circle, so just keep following the trail by clicking on the "next blog" button at the end of every post. You may have arrived from Mikaela's blog, the Crafty oInk Pen. Continue until you have to get off, or wind up back where you started! FUN!
It was fun CASE'ing myself! It was hard to pick one, however! Recently I've been playing with an old favorite, Lovely As A Tree, and so I chose to recreate this card from January 2014 and give it an updated look. I kept the base color and basic layout, but changed up the technique. I think my new version looks like spring!
I used Archival Basic Gray to stamp the trees, then used the spatter stamp from Swirly Bird to add dots in Blushing Bride, Pool Party and So Saffron. I can't wait to use this fun spatter technique with some autumn colors!
Some of the gold showed up in the photo, but this version is very blingy, with Year of Cheer specialty metallic washi tape, Gold Faceted Gems, gold ink spatter and clear Wink of Stella glimmer brush. Guess I was in GLITTER MODE when I made this one!
Now head on over to Craft with Caro to continue your hop! Thanks for visiting Song of My Heart today, and thanks to the Stampin' Creative team for the privilege of being your special guest stamper this month!

What an absolute pleasure it has been to hop with you Lyssa and to CASE your work.
I like both your original card and your updated version. The new swirly bird splatter in your choice of colours, makes the area appear very magical and I love your little flash of ribbon set to one side. Beautiful card. Thanks for hopping with us x
Love the new case! I always liked the first one to. The colors on both really speaks to me.
WOW! Didn’t all these demonstrators do wonderful cases of your projects – they were all lovely to see.
Thank you so much for joining us on our hop Lyssa, it was fun to not only CASE your work but also have you hop with us. Love both the original and the updated more sparkly version. Simply beautiful x
