Hello and welcome to my blog. This week at CASEing the Catty we are taking a project from the Mini Catalogue and stepping it up. You may have hopped over from Rachel’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of each post.

I’ve made three versions of the “Joy” card on page 18. The first version for the beginner crafter, the second version for the casual crafter and the third version for the avid crafter.

Page 18

I’ve kept my cards very similar to the sample card, I’ve changed the card stock to Garden Green and the DSP to Poinsettia Place.

I’ve stamped the leaf image from the Peace and Joy stamp set, directly on my card base in Garden Green ink. The “Joy” is stamped in Poppy Parade and die cut with the matching Joy Dies. I’ve added some Silver Metallic Mesh Ribbon and some sequins.

For the second card I’ve added another layer of Garden Green card stock and embossed it with the Subtle Embossing folder. I’ve also added a Silver Foil layer to my “Joy” sentiment.

The third card has a Whisper White layer of card stock added and a pretty Silver Foil border behind the DSP. The “Joy” sentiment has been Silver heat embossed and layered over a Poppy Parade die cut. I’ve also added an extra “To The World” sentiment.

It’s quite easy to step up a card by adding layers, texture and a little bit of bling and shine. Which card is your favourite?

Marvi doesn’t appear to have a favourite although he was quite fascinated by the Metallic Mesh Ribbon. After I took this picture he pawed at one of the cards then hooked his claws into the mesh ribbon.

CTC295 – Case a Card On Page 1 of the Annual Catalogue

Hello and welcome to my blog. This week at CASEing the Catty we are CASEing a card from page 1 of the Annual Catalogue. You may have hopped over from Michelle’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of each post.

#CTC295

I’ve CASEd the “So Grateful” card on the left hand side of the above graphic.

#stampin_cat #ctc295 #ornatelayersdies #paintedtexture #stampinup

I’ve started with a Thick Whisper White card base then trimmed 2.5cm off the right hand side. I’ve added another piece of Whisper White, it’s been embossed with the new Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder. This embossing folder looks so good in real life. I’ve used an Ornate Layers Die on a piece of Crumb Cake card stock then adhered that over the top of my embossed card front.

I’ve used the “holly” stamp from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set to stamp my holly in Crumb Cake ink. The sentiment is White Heat Embossed on Real Red card stock. A Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon bow finishes off my card perfectly.

Mr Marvi was relaxing on the mat so I took a quick picture while he looked like he’d be in a co-operative mood. Some days it takes me forever to get a decent picture of him lol.

CTC Sunday Challenge

Hello and welcome to my blog. Can you believe it’s only 40 days until Christmas? Even with such a difficult year, where has the time gone? We have five more CASEing the Catty challenges before we take a break over Christmas. We’d love to see your creations.

This week we are CASEing the Colours of the Cards on Page 18 of the Annual Catalogue. The colours are Mint Macaron, Soft Sea Foam, Gray Granite, Blushing Bride, Petal Pink and Whisper White. You may have hopped over from Siobhan’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of each post.

#CTC294

I’m using Gray Granite, Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam and Whisper White. I hadn’t used my Blends for a while so I decided to colour a piece of Peony Garden DSP with a couple of the challenge colours.

#stampin_cat #ctc294 #peonygardendsp #ornateframes #sublends #stampinup

My Card base is Gray Granite with a layer of Petal Pink. The DSP has been coloured with Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Blends. I’ve left the leaves white and added some Wink Of Stella to the flower stamens.

I wanted the coloured DSP to be the hero of my card so I didn’t add many embellishments. Some co-ordinating Gray Granite Shimmer ribbon down one side and a Champagne Foil Ornate Frames Die cut and sentiment.

I’d been looking after Mike for a week, my friends dog, so Marvi was not a happy kitty having a dog in the house. He’s looking a bit grumpy today even though Mike went home on Thursday.
