WMS Soap CASE challenge

Waltzingmouse stamps is having their bi-monthly SOAP event, which is an in-between releases opportunity to play with all the new goodies from the previous month!! A great idea...

Unfortunately for me, I wasn't able to get any of the stamps from last month's release, but I can participate in the CASE challenge! Taking inspiration from one of WMS' designers, you were supposed to copy and share with everyone! :)

I took my CASE card from Anya Schrier...I've been following her blog for a little while now, and I'm a big fan! She mentions in this post that she has a hard time doing clean & simple, which I do too!!

I was doing the CASE from memory, so I actually forgot that instead of using the little basket, she put her eggs inside a Labels 18 frame, but oh well...the general idea is there. I tried, Anya, to keep it simple! ;) I don't know if I succeeded or not...

Here's Anya's lovely, clean & simple card:


And here's my version:

I have mentioned in recent posts how much I'm LOVING my new Copic markers, so I'm coloring everything I can find! ;) Here's a detail of my little basket:
