I love the whimsical feel of Janet's card. The colours made me think of Christmas, and I cut the Radiating Circle die from white cardstock. I counted the little offcut pieces (48!) and then coloured 12 with each of the 4 main colours in Janet's striped background. I spritzed them with shimmer spray for a little sparkle and texture.
I masked off an area on my background panel and stenciled green ink through to mimic that horizontal strip that Janet has at the bottom of her card. I'm not much of a 'critter' person, so I combined the 3 circle panels into one, and stamped the sentiment in the centre of my 'doily'.

Awesome CASE. And so much work involved here, but the outcome is fabulous. Your card is light and fun and cheery and so creative. I love the way you create. TFS
Ardyth, this is a fun interpretation of Janet's card. I love the non traditional colors and how all 48 of those little pieces pop against the white. So festive!
