CASE-ing the Squigglefly Challenge Blog

That's what the new challenge is at Squigglefly Challenge Blog- to CASE a DT card, meaning to copy it yet change it up enough to make it your own.  So I CASE'd Rhonda's Card because I liked the use of her photo corners and simple design. 
I made it mine by using a FREEBIE digi image from Squigglefly called Turtle Express.  I colored the paughing pair with my trusty Copics, giving the snail's shell a little shimmer with Liquid Pearls in Peacock.
The sentiment, "A good time to laugh is any time you can", by Linda Ellerbee, and I got it from thequotegarden.com.  The patterned paper was leftover from another project, a piece of WeRMemoryKeepers White Out collection. 
I cut my photo corners from the smallest strip of orange cardstock I could find in my stash file, which is slowly but surely dwindling down to a more manageable amount.  It's killing me but I haven't bought paper for MONTHS now.
That's it!  I didn't have to angst over design because I CASE'd it, thanks to Rhonda, who CASE'd it from a card made by another DT, Charlene.  Now it's your turn to CASE a card and play in the Squigglefly Challenge this week.  If you use a Squigglefly image, you can win a prize!!
