Rylee's first CASE

Hi everyone.  I'm just stopping by to share a little card that was made by someone very special.  When my 9 year old niece Rylee comes over to spend a weekend with me, we always make a little time to make cards.  She draws a lot of her inspiration from card videos.  We curl up in my chair and we tune into various videos around the web to soak in some new ideas and techniques that she may want to try.  Then we hit the craft room so she can get her hands dirty! LOL!

This weekend we headed over to StampNation to soak in some of the awesome CASE-ing Christmas class videos.  She learned what CASE means (Copy And Share Everything) and she learned the whole philosophy of CASEing another person's card.   It was great for her to see all of those CASEings in action and she was so excited to try her hand at it.  So, we headed off to my craft room and she started by picking out one of my Christmas cards to CASE.  I let her have free reign with her creation and I was delighted with the results.  Here's her adorable card:


Here is her card next to the card she chose to CASE.  You can see some similarities in the colors and the bear but she was very good at changing some of the elements to make this card her own creation.


I think what impressed me the most about her creation is that she wanted to incorporate the stripes from the scarf on my bear but her bear didn't have a scarf.  Instead she created her own striped design on the bear's sweater.  She is really getting good at thinking outside the box and I'm so proud of her.  Great job Rylee!!

Have a great day!!
