What a delight to case one of your cards, Katie. Each and every one in your gallery is inspiring.
I don't yet have the geranium stamp Katie used so I thought I would try to coax one of it's cousins, the azalea, into getting down and dirty. Well, it was a delight to case Katie but I think that this Southern Bell Azalea would be happy to go back to one of the showy gardens of the South where they thrive. I couldn't quite get the earthy look she perfected with her geranium.

So gorgeous! Love everything about it and there is SO much to love - the stitching, the out of the box cutting, and of course the coloring... the splattering, sponging, colors..

Becky, I don't know what on earth you are talking about because your card is nothing short of stunning! I love, love, love the colors you chose, the beautifully colored azalea (I have about 30 Indica azaleas in my front yard variety "Formosa"...they are the prettiest purple so I love this) and your perfect stitching! I am so honored to have you CASE one of my cards and I am tickled pink that you could play along today in the FS challenge....truly, you made my day, Becky!

This is gorgeous, Becky! I love geraniums, but I also love azaleas. We have a number of them in our beds. Don't think I've ever seen a purple one IRL, but I love the color. I did have some purplish geraniums a couple of years ago. Beautiful card!

Becky, this is one gorgeous card lady! You've achieved a beautiful light on the azalea, and I love the splatter. Details galore on this outstanding card. Complimentary designer paper with the lace ribbon, striking purple stripes with the focal image, perfect stitching -- Becky, you really CASE'd Katie's card so well. Not only could I gaze at Katie's gallery all evening, your gallery is right behind! Gorgeous card!
