Happy Friday-Eve! Let's celebrate it with style, Maile Belles style, as we knuckle down to a new CASE Study!
Today's card is inspired by this beauty of Mailes:
Check out the original post of this card here.
I was taken by the general layout and those strips of colour. Instead of stamping my colour, I used coloured cardstock and stamped my focal point and sentiment. Simple!
- There's a little bit of theory when it comes to this design. Keep the doses of bold colours smaller than the paler colours to help balance the design. I also worked from light to dark across my panels of card.
- When stamping across strips of cardstock, it's easier if you line them up together and adhere them with a temporary adhesive to your work surface. This will reduce of the risk of any strips misbehaving and moving whilst stamping!
- Sentiments don't have to be stamped horizontally on a card. Why not experiment and try stamping a sentiment vertically? You may just like the result...!

I love the color blocking! Way to take the sketch from Maile's card and knock it out of the park!
Perfect interpretation! Love that phone in black :)
I'm visiting from Case Study to tell you how much I like your card! And now that I've read your post, I have to tell you how much I like your Tips & Tricks too!
Love this bold, bright card Aimes! Perfect colour blocking!
It's ridiculous how simple and effective the grouped colour blocks are!!! Love the vibrant modern look Aimes :0)
Great take on the CASE card. Congrats on being this week's Moxy Fabber too - so weird to see my home town mentioned on it.
