Today is Waltzingmouse Stamps April Blog Party and I have a very quick post. My son is getting married in two days and I am a bit frazzled. Lots of last minute things to get done, but I did make a card for the party. When I saw this month's theme of flowers...my immediate thought was of WM Sewing Box Hugs and the really cute flowers in that set. Within a few days, my friend Joyce of Cards by the Sea posted a card using Sewing Box Hugs that I could not get out of my mind, in fact, as soon as I saw it I knew I was going to CASE her card. And by CASE it, I mean almost identical! Here is Joyce's cute card:

Thanks Joyce for the inspiration this month...I promise next month once the wedding is behind us, I will come up an idea all on my own!

Cathy--I am honored that you cased my card. I love your take on it. Brilliant idea to use that beautiful plaid paper for your frame--did you make that? And, I love how you did your stems and impressed your background.
This quilted set always reminds me of you - I haven't seen it in a while on your blog and it still looks amazing! I love the plaid too!
Love those plaid, stitched blooms...
and what a great card to CASE! :)
It was brilliant to have them out of the polaroid...
like a snapshot of the garden!
When I saw the thumbnail I thought you just cased Joyce's card because you loved it as much as I did. I is a big favorite of mine.
Well, I love the card you made with the inspiration from Joyce! The stitched flowers look wonderful in the plaid frame. You still need to link it up!
Pretty waffle embossed background and I love the plaid photo framing! A lovely case of Joyce's card!
Love your CASE!! The texture compliments the stitched flowers perfectly.
Great job and amazing Case :) I love this background and photo framing :)flowers look so sweet :)
Cathy your card is beautiful, and remember that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Honestly you used Joyce as your muse and your card is very Cathy! :) I love both of them.
Cathy, you are amazing! I love how you changed up Joyce's card and made it your own. Both of you are so creative! That plaid for your frame is so fun and the embossed background, just perfect.
Love Joyce's card and YOURS too!! Ohhhh. I understand the frazzled and I feel for ya!! My oldest got married in Nov 2011 and the week before that I had "all planned out" let's just say the planning and reality were two different things!! Had a wonderful time though and you will tooo!
I really like your take on Joyce's card. I love the texture on yours and the fun and funky tartan polaroid frame! And those sweet flowers! Great work.
Hope all is going well with the wedding preps!
2 days?! I didn't know it was that close, how exciting!! I had the same Sewing Box Hugs flowers on my mind today...but I LOVE your cards even more! Joyce came up with a fabulous layout and I love the patterns you picked for your posies. That texture folder is amazing too...(and I so need that polaroid die cut ;)!! I hope you have a wonderful time this weekend, congratulations !! XO
Beautiful card!
Hope your sons wedding goes well - have a lovely day.
Love that cool tartan frame and the little flowers bursting out. Really love the waffle texture of the background - looks like fabric and goes so well with the theme of the card.
Enjoy the wedding and make wonderful memories !!!
