The featured stamper today is czjim(Claudia). I'm familiar with her work...she is a challenge buddy. She has an outstanding gallery, and always ready with comments to encourage us stampers. Congrats Claudia. The card I chose to case is Simple Sympatjy by cjzim at Splitcoaststampers
Loved the soft look to this card, and how clean. I used a die lattice to make the stencil...sponged with poolparty. Stamped the image with the Tim Holtz inks. Added a little water to the flower. Added the sentiment.....everything is going as planned. Then to my not wiping my mat I have a big smudge. I took a piece of paper and cut it like a photo corner , and scored it. Adhered it over the smudge. Added some more scoring and a bow. I love how cas card look, but sure have a hard time keeping them mistake free. Congrats again Claudia and enjoy your reign.

Wow! Linda, this is a masterpiece! The sentiment is perfect, the stenciling is awesome, and the scoring is characteristically classic Holstein. Just. Wow.

Linda, your triangular panel with the beautiful scoring may have resulted from a smudge, but it adds a whole other gorgeous element to your card. Love it!

Oh, Linda, what a beautiful CASE for Claudia today! She is precious, and I love the "fix" in the corner, which is amazing and adds a very special touch! Stunning! Hugs!

Beautiful, Linda! I was just admiring the corners of this card before I read your description! Brilliant cover and I thought you designed it this way intentionally! Love the colors on this too! What a gorgeous card!
Smiles about the smudges. I get them no matter what type of card I am doing.
This is really pretty. I love how you did the bottom left edge and the coloring under the bow. I know what you mean about smudges. I made an all white card last week and somehow smudged it with black ink. Luckily I had not put my snow layer down so that hid it.
