Hi everyone and welcome to my blog.  It’s been another big week. Yesterday, myself and two of my demo friends, Lou & Megan, hosted a Craft Day Retreat at Purple Copper at Peregian Springs.  That combined with work, a medical procedure and a cold has me exhausted.  But not too tired to share this week’s CASEing the Catty project.

You may have hopped over to me from Rose, I just loved her project.  This week we are CASEing our Favourite Big Shot Project from the Holiday Catty.  Hmm……I looked through the Catty 3 times before I decided what to CASE then chose the card on page 27.

Now at first glance this card does not appear to have much Big Shot-ing (is that a word?) on it but my version does.

I used the largest Layering Oval to die cut the front of my card…..Big Shot.  I don’t have the Christmas Happiness Stamp Set but I do have Pretty Pines Thinlits.  I’ve die cut the pine leaves and pine cone rather than stamping them……Big Shot.   I’ve also  embossed the front of my card with the Quilt Top Embossing Folder so that’s heaps of Big Shot-ing.

I did a very light water colour wash in Soft Sky on some Water Colour paper and attached that to the inside of my card.  My pine cone is die cut from Copper Foil Sheet and my sentiment is heat embossed in Copper.

Next up in the crew hop is the very talented Megan.  Her project is just gorgeous.  Just click the next button to hop on over.

It’s Sunday night already, where did that week go.  Welcome to another CASEing the Catty Sunday Blog Hop.  Whether you’re starting with me or you’ve hopped over from Rachel, make sure you check out all the crew’s fabulous projects.  We are CASEing the Year of Cheer section, pages 36-47.

This is one of my favourite suites.  I love the DSP and the Washi Tape.  I’ve been inspired by the card on page 39.

I’ve used the Hometown Greetings Edgelits Dies and teamed it with Year of Cheer DSP.

I’ve used Soft Suede as my card base.  I love how Soft Suede looks with gold, the two colours were made for each other lol.

I’ve die cut my images in Gold Foil card then layered the trees in Soft Suede and the snowman’s hat in Basic Black.  The smoke coming out the chimney is gold glitter.

I’ve added some gold Washi Tape under the black strip that’s behind the sentiment.  I hope you like today’s card.

Next on our hop is Kelly.  You’re going to love her project this week.  Just click on the next button to hop on over.
