CASEING - What is CASEing?

Hello Stampers,

Have you ever heard the acronym CASE when surfing Facebook, Pinterest or Youtube?
Maybe you have even seen or heard it at a class or workshop.  OK, let me clarify what it means
for you and how you can use it.

CASE

Copy

And

Share

Everything

That’s it, CASEing is simply just finding a card design that you like in a catalogue or online
and copying it either directly or using aspects of the card to create your own.  The most important
thing to remember when CASEing a card is to ALWAYS give credit to the original artist if using
the design for anything other personal use.

You may have noticed the beautiful cards displayed in all the Stampin’ Up! catalogues, on their
website and blog, etc.  The purpose of this is to showcase the stamps, inks, cardstock and any
accessories used to create the cards, but also to give crafters ideas to jump-start their creativity
and make stamping easy to replicate.

Stampin’ Up! encourages this so much that throughout all the catalogues, you will find projects
designer with the “You Can Make It” heading with all the products used to create the card.
They also showcase CASEing each quarter in the demonstrator exclusive magazine,
Stampin’ Success.
(I also Cased this from Victoria Hevener from America,  because I thought it was a very good explanation of CASEing.)


Here are my CASEings....

This card was CASEd from the Occasions Catalogue page 28.

My next card wasCASEd from the 2018-2019 Annual Catalogue page 23.  There is a slight change here as I didn’t have the green DSP, so I improvised and used the stamp from Incredible Like You and Granny Green Ink.

So... if you haven’t CASEd yet, do it.   Just be sure to give credit to the artist (if taken from Pinterest, etc.)

It will give you a new spark of creativity when you have that creative brain dead episode. Even us demonstrators get brain dead at times.
