On the CASE: Birthday Banners
Welcome to a new series – On the CASE with Ann & Nicole! My dear friend, Ann Schach, and I roomed together for a recent Stampin’ Up! OnStage event. In the wee hours of the morning, while pouring through the new Annual Catalog, we talked about joining forces and doing a blog series where we would both CASE the catalog and share our insights with our readers. We decided that because our styles are so different, that we’d be introducing something new to our followers, and chances were that we wouldn’t want to CASE the same projects.
