Hello and welcome to my blog. Happy Easter, I hope you’ve had a wonderful Easter break and had a chance to spend time with your family and loved ones. The Easter Bunny visited my house and left some lovely chocolatey surprises.

We’re CASEing from the Bundle section of the Mini Catty, pages 67-73. You may have hopped over from Rebecca’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of the post.

I’ve chosen to CASE the Enduring Beauty Bundle on page 68 of the Mini Catty.

I’ve changed the orientation of my card from portrait to landscape and I didn’t use the outline flower stamp because I wanted to give the image a softer look.

I’ve used an old favourite colour, Pretty In Pink, which is returning as a new In Colour in the 2024 Annual Catalogue. This is my first time using the Enduring Beauty Decorative Masks, they are so easy to use. Although there’s five decorative masks in the set I’ve only used two ink colours for the flowers, Pretty In Pink and Soft Sea Foam.

I’ve also added a few Soft Sea Foam leaf die cuts behind the flowers. There’s two other new products on my card. 2024-2026 In Colour DSP and 2024-2026 In Colour Shimmer Gems. The sentiment is from the Go To Greetings stamp set.

Marvi was not very co-operative for a photo this week. He was more interested in food and although I told him he’d get extra treats if he posed nicely, this was the best photo I could get.

Hello and welcome to my blog. I missed the challenge last week as I was in Melbourne for the Stampin’ Up! On Stage event. It was such a fun event but it’s back to reality this week, back to work and back to CASEing the Catty’s blog hop.

We have a sketch challenge from the Mini Catalogue, using the ice cream card layout on page 70. 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 the post.

I’m using a new Online Exclusive stamp set this week. It’s called Pets & More, I think the little kitty looks a bit like Marvi haha.

My card base is Early Espresso followed by a layer of Country Woods DSP, a brand new DSP from the 2024 Annual Catalogue. I’ve created the borders with the Deckled Rectangles Dies and the Everyday Details Dies.

The cute little fish and food bowl are stamped in Balmy Blue. The sentiment is from the Gorgeously Made stamp set and is White Heat Embossed.

Marvi wasn’t at all excited about being featured on my card. He did manage to open his eyes but he didn’t move from his napping position.

Hello and welcome to my blog. This week at CASEing the Catty we are CASEing A Project, from either catalogue, and Stepping It Up. You may have hopped over from Kathryn’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of the post.

I’ve chosen to CASE the “time for cake” card from page 30 of the Mini catalogue.

This card uses ink on an embossing folder for the colour and texture on four of the circles. Instead of ink I’ve “Stepped It Up” with some Forever Love Specialty DSP.

My card base is Pretty Peacock. The circles have been die cut using the Everyday Details Dies. The feature circle is in Very Vanilla and I’ve fussy cut a flower from the SDSP.

The sentiment has been Gold Heat Embossed and I’ve added a few Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems.

Marvi is looking very handsome this week. I only had to take one photo, some weeks it’s a real struggle. I’m looking after Mike, the dog, for a couple of weeks while his humans are away on holidays and Marvi has been on his best behaviour.

I’m last on the hop this week so if you didn’t start at the beginning of the hop just click on the next button below and it will take you back to the start to Julia’s wonderful creation.
