I'm just in the honeymoon phase of my love affair with Altenew Hennah Elements. This means that you get to see lots and lots of these stamps in action! This card I made for Case Study Challenge, CASEing the marvellous Pamela Ho.
I first made this card on Smokey Slate cardstock, but the silver was almost invisible, despite the card being stunning (if you looked hard enough). So I changed to PTI Soft Stone with silver embossing. Oh, I love this card! I made it for a friend who is getting married this coming week-end. Don't worry, she doesn't follow my blog. She's one of those people who throws cards away (Gives me shivers just thinking of it!). I keep giving her beautiful cards, working to tempt her to keep one. I live in hope. ;-)
My design was directly inspired by Pamela's gorgeous card.
For those of you following my chicken stories... Penny laid an egg! In fact, she has laid one egg a day since Saturday! Here are the first couple of eggs (with a store-bought egg to the right for comparison). The first one was tiny, like a bantam egg, lol!Thank-you for visiting! I hope you join us at Case Study this week!

Gorgeous Michelle - the sentiment flows beautifully with the Hennah images! So jealous of your chickens - I wish we had a big enough yard to put in a coop.
Michelle , your card is STUNNING!!!!!!! I love the way you spit the flower for the congrats. So very elegant!
How fun to have your own eggs. My friend has about 8 or more hens and the eggs are the best! Such pretty eggs too.
So cool to see the eggs. And wow! Keep showing us these amazing stamps. Gorgeous card Michelle.
You're rockin' it girl!
Just so very beautiful *sigh* I wish I hadn't spent my entire cm budget at MFT [well, maybe not =]
Altenew was sold out of my picks - but I'll be watching very closely for this one...
Love 'home grown' eggs - my niece had 10 that laid the loveliest green eggs you've ever laid eyes on =]
Beautiful with the monotone! Makes for a very elegant card~
I am so loving your cards using this wonderful stamp set! Another stunner.
There you go using that fabulous stamp set. Looks amazing embossed in silver..can you believe I don't own any silver embossing powder? what the heck.
Yay for eggs!
Very pretty card, Michelle!
Yay for fresh eggs! They are the best!
This looks fresh off the store card rack Michelle~it's fabulous!
Having the love affair along with you Michelle, hoping that stamp in back in stock soon. Love the silver embossing. Congrats Penny you are doing well!
This is one GORGEOUS card, Michelle, you've inspired me to try my hand at this challenge! Wish I had chickens but where we live doesn't allow it. I get my eggs from a nearby farm and they are THE BEST eggs I've ever tasted!
Michelle, you are making me want this stamp set - I just love the silver embossing! I bet Penny's eggs taste the best!
LOVE this card, Michelle!! How cool that you are on the CASE design team. Haven't visited that blog in a long time and was so happy to see you there! Congrats!
Oh my...those eggs looks so yummy, how fun to have a chicken! Now on to your card, it is so classy and very very romantic.
Another WOW card Michelle. Stunning embossing....not a stray speck in sight.
I love this one, too! Pinning it to CASE for the glorious day when I actually purchase this set. :)
