I’ve been inspired to CASE a CASE of a CASE Stamp Buddies card today and while I’m CASE-ing a card I may just as well make it a Christmas in July card. An old Inkadinkadoo red rubber mounted stamp was used to create my scene. The frame was die cut using Art Impressions Rectangle Double Stitched die, a Sizzix embossing folder, sentiment strip from my stash as well as a snowflake and a few other small embellishments complete my card today. But while I was playing with Christmas in July and the CASE why not make another card. So here’s card CASE #2:
This image was another red rubber mounted stamp by Penny Black. It’s a little larger than card #1 so I decided on Hero Arts Wood Frame Infinity die, Spellbinder’s poinsettia and sentiment strip again from my stash. I thought this one needed a little color. Both cards were stamped using Taylored Expressions Poppy Seed ink.
My cards today will be shared with:

Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. We could use a teeny bit of cooler weather but who’s complaining!! Take care, be safe and stay cool.
Stamp Buddies 
Wow – aren’t we the clever ones, CASEing each other and getting mileage out of stamps. You have given me some ideas for continuing on this theme as I too have some village images that would work for Christmas cards. I love both of these and adding the pop of colour to the 2nd one was a good idea. You did a lovely job with your frame choices and having some embossing behind the first one adds texture and interest.
Both cards look great! How fun that you are finding cards made by buddies to CASE.
These look great! Love the texture and embellishments you added.
Both are terrific. One with texture and one with color pop both set off by frames and of course interesting stamps
Elegant and yet masculine!! Thanks for playing along with our “Christmas in July” challenge over at Cardz 4 Guyz!! You rocked the Christmas elements with your snowy scene and then nailed the masculine element with your village in the black and white color combo!! -Deb Horst, DT #C4G326
Both cards are just BEAUTIFUL!!! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Peace On Earth challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.

What great cards! I like the poinsettia in the corner of the second one. I like how you did them both a bit differently. Those frames are lovely.
Both are beautiful. I like how you made them similar but not exactly alike. How cool to CASE a Stamp Buddies card.
