One Year Later - and a Challenge!

One year ago today, MASKerade started its journey through blogland. And what a year it's been!! It's been so much fun - the card making, the learning (both computer and camera), the design team work and best of all, all the new friends. I thank each and every one of you, whether you've been here once or come every day - it's been wonderful meeting you, being inspired by you and being encouraged by you (and even planning some little surprises together from time to time!).

So in honour of this very auspicious occasion, I've decided to host a little challenge. Take the first card you ever posted to your blog (or flickr, or splitcoaststampers - wherever) and CASE it. If you think it's perfect the way it is and it can't be made any better (I didn't have this problem!), you can choose any of your old cards that you do think could be changed or improved.

Here's the very first card I posted on January 20, 2012. It was for Susan's One Layer Wednesday challenge - who knew then that this year I would actually be one of the hostesses of this challenge.

This pretty pink, starry birthday card will be sent to my niece who lives just outside London, in the UK. I used the Martha Stewart 'anywhere' star punch and a Printworks sentiment.

I hope you'll help me celebrate! Head back into those archives and dig out your "inspiration" for this challenge. No CAS or One-layer requirements. Whatever you like!  Post the original and your remake and link up to the right.
