The CASE of NO MoJo..... Again!

Well I'm in half way into week 2 of the 3 week visit of my grand kids and I'm already getting worn out!  Guess I just can't hang like I used to.  I've been going to work Tues-Thurs to get some rest. John watches them Monday & Friday. He's is so good with them.
Here is a picture of them .... aren't they cute?
They are such a joy and they all want to craft too. They also spotted the left over Kits from my card classes .... So I've spent many hours in my craft space helping them make up those kit cards for everyone they know.
With that said, I have had NO MOJO left over for originality and once again I had to defer to someone else for the creativity and CASED a few cards I needed for family members and friends.
The first one I CASEd from Mary Fish... I love the blackberry color and this card looked so pretty. She used the newer papers and a different stamp set, but still it's a CASE.
 
Here is a peek at the inside.  
 
 
 The second one I CASEd from ME! I made this card earlier this year for a work friend that took and passed a motorcycle class. Her card was done in red & black & white. She called me last Monday and said another gal from work took and passed the same class. She asked if I would duplicated my previous card,  but I did this one in pink and gray.  The background chevron is supposed to represent the tire treads of the big Harley Davison bikes.
 
The third card I CASEd from one of the designers at PTI.  PTI is another one of my FAVORITE stamp / die stops each month. The one thing I REALLY love about PTI is almost all their stamps have matching dies.  I just have to STOP purchasing monthly!
..... I am pretty sure I have a serious " I can't live without that set" problem!
Thanks for stopping by and please leave a comment. I love to hear what you think.

Hi Di,
Love the "framed" picture of you with the grandkids, very original!
Your cards are great, who cares if they're cased, copying is a compliment to the creator.
I too love the color Blackberry Bliss, seems like I'm always trying to use it(and my ink pad tells it). Really like the different pattern papers and the die cut heart with the stamped and smaller heart inside, the inside with repeated heart definitely tie it all together.
Of course the motorcycle card is so darn cute and love it in pink and your "tire treads" are the perfect filler for the background.
However, my favorite card is the lighthouse, fabulous job, love the new "wave" die as well as the sentiment, just perfect, my friend!
