CASE Study #69

It's been awhile since I've been able to play over at CASE Study.  This week our muse is Amy Sheffer. 

I was so intrigued with the layers of white that I thought I'd give this a try.  Mine is not as elegant, but more playful, using this digital Patchwork Robin by Suze at DieCuts & Doodles, coloring it with my Memento markers.  I followed Amy's example exactly.  


supplies: white cardstock, Digital Image "Patchwork Robin" from DieCuts & Doodles, Memento markersSizzix embossing folder "Swirly Vines with Hearts", Nesties Labels 18, Hero Arts CL464 Sending Holiday Cheer, VersaFine onyx black ink, red pearls, rusty-red ribbon
