It’s no secret that I admire so many SCS stampers. This week’s challenge is Secret Admirer – to CASE a card by someone you admire or a card you’ve always wanted to CASE. I chose this card by my sweet friend and our Challenge Team Coordinator Chris Olsen. Not only do I admire her amazing creative talent, but also how she reflects the love of Christ in her life. I rotated my card and used a different verse from Sentiments Collection 2 and dies and used the flowers from Sing to the Lord (with lots of fussy cutting). I love how Chris has such a wonderful ability to layer and add such rich texture to her cards. So I used ODBD’s Decorative Corners dies and Fancy Foliage dies for my first attempt. Chris, thank you for much for inspiring me with your creativity and for sharing your love for Christ to us all. You are an inspiration and always so encouraging to everyone!

Cheryl, you have captured the beauty and rich textures of Chris' card and done it in your own beautiful style. The aqua and green are just gorgeous together. So much work and every bit of it wonderful.

Exquisite card to tell someone you have them on your mind and in your heart, Cheryl. Love the lacy quality of your cards with the delicate die cuts and pretty embossing.
