Donna is an absolute stamping inspiration. She creates with the highest quality—has a real eye for design. She is a stamper who inspires me to push my own abilities and grow. She is also an incredible person and friend to all. I am so proud to call her my friend. And I’m incredibly blessed when she sends me her creations!

She was kind enough to send me one of her most prized cards and I highly value that gesture. In fact, I want to honor Donna by doing a CASE of her creation, so here it is!

You can see Donna’s original here. It is absolutely stunning and she actually won that Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge!! I’m so proud of her!!!

I am using The Pink Elephant Challenge #39 for this card. It’s a color challenge using the colors brown, yellow, neutral and a color of your choice.

I used BoBunny ‘Tis the Season designer paper. Who knew you could use a Christmas paper for something other than Christmas!! I also used Sunflower and Island Mist Double Dot paper and a brown Bazzill base (I don’t remember which color!).

The images and ribbon are Stampin’ Up! I stamped the front in Versamark Onyx ink and embossed (ala Donna again!) with clear powder. I stamped the interior with Jet Black Stazon.

Thank you again, Donna, for the card and for the endless inspiration you provide!
