Did you see that this month's muse at CASE Study is Donna Mikasa? She's a super talented CAS designer who rocks bright and cheery pops of colour. This week we're to CASE her sweet thank you card. I immediately thought of this star from Fresh Squeezed Stamps and wanted to use my Hero Arts inks. I'm really digging the fun colours! I think I may do a couple other designs with monochromatic stars in blues and pinks for baby cards as well. I was kind of wishing I had a Wink of Stella pen to add some glitter to all of my stars but since I don't I added a dot of Stickles to the centre of each one for a little sparkle. I also want to link this card to the One-Layer Simplicity Challenge. I don't make too many one-layer cards as I'm not that confident with my stamping. Maybe this challenge will help me to get a little braver? The challenge this week is to restock your card stash. I was thinking maybe I should focus on a big occasion like birthday cards or something but congrats card are often needed too so I can now consider my Congrats card stash 1 card richer (making a grand total of… 1). ETA: I had also intended to link this to the Moxie Fab Trendy Star Power challenge!

Remember...we're on the use what we have kick...not that I'm doing a good job. Went to look at Archiver's for a Wink of Stella pen but they didn't have any. I love your take on Donna's card. Fabulous!
Love this - great take on Donna's card!
Girl, you SHOULD be more confident in your one-layer cards because this one ROCKS!!! Donna is one of my favorite card makers ever, and your CASE of her card is totally amazing! Way to go!

This is the perfect take on the Muse card! Awesome card!
This is a fabulous CASE, Jen! Such pretty multicolour stars, with your signature perfect touch of bling. :)
Brilliant idea for the CASE. I wish I had thought of it. Love your colors and your stamping. You should try more one layers--you have the talent.
LOL! General congrats cards are a category that doesn't get much love at my house either! This is so fun with all the bright colours :)
Fabulous design and oh so happy results! Love this cheerful, bright card and the touch of bling! Thanks so much for joining us at the One-Layer Simplicity Challenge.
Fun card, Jen!
