Welcome to October 1st and the newest installment of CASEplorations. This is where we select one card from the blogosphere for your and our CASEing pleasure. We've a black and white beauty from our June monthly challenge for your CASEing pleasure this month.
Doesn't this card just demand your attention? This striking creation comes to you from Greta Hess. Surely you know Greta the Nurse, of GG Creations? You've probably seen her lovely work over at the Penny Black Saturday Challenge too. I always enjoy Greta's work because she incorporates a lot of thought and technique in her cards while keeping them clean and pleasing to look at.
Did you notice how Greta used washi tape on her card to frame the stamped image? What a great idea. Greta joined us this month, CASEing her original card and here is what she came up with. The sentiment may be the same, but this card has a totally different feel to it - light and airy.
Stop by the Greta's blog (and the DT blogs) to find out more about how they approached this CASE.
I hope you are inspired to CASE Greta and join us. Or you can CASE any of these cards or any of the DT Inspiration Projects coming up during October. If you hook up your creations in the Inspiration CASE Playground., you might be the random winner. It's open until November 5th. We'd love to see you there.

Heads up! If you used a STAMPlorations stamp (clear stamp or digi) and/or ARTplorations stencil in your project(s), make sure to link it up to our Never-ending Anything Goes Challenge too for a chance to win more stamps! (We draw a winner for every 50 entries in the linky :o)
