The Spring Summer Collection Catalogue may not say "Idea Book" on the cover anymore, but it really is a fantastic resource for ideas.  Not only does it have over 300 different samples that you can copy from but it has the recipes in the back that you can use to copy.  CASE=copy and steal/share everything.  There is no shame in copying an idea…we all have limited amounts of time and we still want to be creative.  So here’s my CASE from the catalogue.

I just love the set "All in the Family" and I love the sample on page 73 so I copied it exactly, using the recipe in the back of the book.

Here’s my copied version.

And here’s my modified "boy" version. 

Here’s two other samples using the same design and colour scheme as the one in the catalogue.  They both use "Sale-a-bration" stamp sets: Friendship Blooms & Birthday Whimsy. ( Both are stamps that you can earn for free in the next month..see all details here.)

And finally here’s my own version of this card with a different stamp set (called Embrace Life) and a different colour scheme, but the SAME design idea as the original card. I’m also using the Porcelain Prints Designer papers, Blue Bayou & Wild Wasabi in-colours and white Tafetta Ribbon.  Cool eh??
