Just in CASE - Premiere!!!

Just in CASE - Premiere

Hey everyone! I fell off for a bit, but I am back with some cool stuff for you guys. I watched A LOT of YouTube this weekend and decided to try some stuff I saw and loved. That gave me an idea to start a blog series called "Just In CASE". The meaning is 2-fold. I will start with the "CASE". For those of you unfamiliar with the term, in the card-making world, it means "Copy And Share Everything"...CASE. Basically it is how we encourage the sharing of ideas between one another. The only rule is that you do not act like it's your brand new idea and give credit where credit is due. Even if you don't remember where you saw it, acknowledge you weren't the brain-child of the idea. You also don't have to do the SAME thing, it can just be a card that gave you an idea and is something LIKE the one you saw.

The second part is the "Just in case" as a whole. Who doesn't like to have a card on hand "just in case" one is needed? I know I do. So that is the point of the series and as I find cool ideas I want to CASE, I will share them with you! I had a very busy weekend so actually have FIVE new CASE cards I want to share with you all, but will be sharing them one at a time. I also decided to post the video (if applicable) I got the idea from as well...no point in re-inventing the wheel just yet. I plan to get my own YouTube channel up and running, but I have some things to work out. It WILL be up and running soon though so watch out!

Ok so on to my first Just in CASE (JIC) card...

PDE 1/21, SUO 1/28, and CCMC 2/1 Challenges

PDE 1/21, SUO 1/28, and CCMC 2/1 Challenges

This week I chose to do three challenges within one card. I thought the idea of using no layers was interesting and was definitely a challenge! I had card club this Friday night in which we made FOUR cards, all using items from the new SU! Occasions Mini 2014 and Sale-A-Bration, so I will be posting these over the next week. 

1. Pause, Dream, Enjoy - Friendship Card 

2. CCMC - Color Challenge

3. SUO

"...our challenge is to make a card with NO layers!  Embellishments are fine.  But only that basic flat or folded card. "


Here is my finished product...

Mojo Monday 1/6, Pals Paper Arts 1/6, CAS-ual Fridays 1/03 Challenge #1 

I decided to do FIVE challenges this week, but have been so busy I just didn't have the time to think of a card to incorporate ALL five. Also, two were sketches so that wouldn't have worked either. I was so tired I almost didn't do my challenges, but somehow got myself up and did it. You can click on the title of each challenge to go to the challenge page. Click here for my second card and here for my third challenge I did today!

1. Mojo Monday Sketch 

2. CAS-ual Fridays - Word Inspiration Challenge

"Instead of a resolution, choose a word that describes what you hope for the new year.

maybe it's LOVE if you want to work on your relationships, or DO if you want to challenge yourself to something, or LAUGH if you want to lighten up, etc.

Use that word as the inspiration for your card, and keep it Clean And Simple"
