First, let me show you my ANYTHING GOES card...
Now... let me explain.
1. I do NOT like this card.
2. I made it for the ABC Challenges. Patty is the owner of ABC Challenges. She is AWESOME!!! I don't know of anyone who has mastered CAS cards better than Patty. So... I tried to do a CAS. UGH is more like it.
3. This was actually not my first attempt. I trashed what I tried first. Then I went to Pinterest and searched for ideas to CASE. It didn't feel right to CASE Patty on her own challenge blog, so Pinterest was my next best option. Besides, I have a monthly goal to CASE a card/project from Pinterest. I did it.
4. Here is my inspiration from Pinterest. (You'll notice it's actually found in the SCS gallery - but I found it on Pinterest.) I loved Susie Australia's card; mine - not so much!
Oh well. There's always next week's challenge to try to redeem myself. ;)

I actually adore both cards!! They are just FABULOUS!
both cards are just to cute nicely done.
Of course I think both cards are fantastic, Jeanette, but I really really love the layout of the first one. How you split up the patterned paper is genius and I think I will have to "borrow" that idea! Beautiful cards!
Jeanette - both cards are great! You don't give yourself enough credit - that first card is so pretty!!!!!
Fabulous card Jeanette - the first one is fine, my friend, and I love the wee girl on the second one.
Blessings

Hi Jeanette - I just want to tell you that you have awesome style and creativity. On my way to leave you a comment on your ABC card I've been enjoying crusing through your other recent work and I've been smiling the whole way! I love your heart card for ABC - its really nice with the strips of DSP - great idea. Love the library card idea too - alot! Thanks for a wonderful start to my Sunday morning. Hugs D
Cute cards Jeanette. I really like them both. Great job.
