Welcome to another CASEing the Catty Blog Hop.  This week our inspiration is to CASE from the All My Love section of the 2019 Occasions Catalogue Pages 4-9.  You may have arrived here from Elizabeth’s gorgeous creation, thanks for continuing on with me.  Make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of each post.

I couldn’t go past the “You Are Loved” card from our graphic above.  Here’s a closer look.

I love this card so much I haven’t changed much at all from the original version.

I’ve used a card base of Thick Whisper White card stock and layered that with two more pieces of Whisper White.  The bottom layer has been stamped in Lovely Lipstick and Granny Apple Green using the Forever Lovely stamp set.  I used my Stamparatus to help line up the stamping to the die cut.

The top layer of card stock has been die cut with the Lovely Flowers Edgelits Dies and it fits over my stamped flowers perfectly.  I’ve adhered some small die cut flowers in Soft Sea Foam and attached a Metallic Gold Pearl to their centre.  The sentiment is from the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set and is heat embossed with Gold Embossing Powder.  I’ve also added some Lovely Lipstick 1/8″ Grosgrain Ribbon behind the sentiment.

My assistant, Marvi, celebrated his 6th Birthday on Wednesday.  He still loves to sleep in the little basket he had as a kitten.

Hello and welcome to my blog.  I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and New Year.  It’s going to be another great year at CASEing the Catty.  We’ve got new graphics, new crew members and a brand new Occasions and Sale-a-bration Catalogue.  We’re kicking off the New Year by CASEing from the Sale-a-bration Catalogue.

You may be starting with me or you may have hopped over from Siobhan’s gorgeous creation.  Make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of each post.

There’s so many gorgeous samples in the Sale-a-bration Catalogue.  I decided to CASE the “Hello Friend” card on page 9.

I’ve changed up the colours but left the layout fairly similar.

I’ve used the opposite side of the Botanical Butterfly DSP than the sample card.  It’s adhered to a Basic Black card base.  I’ve added a border from the Delightfully Detailed Laser Cut Specialty Paper along the top and bottom of my DSP, just to make it stand out a bit better.  Then I’ve added a layer of Vellum Card Stock which has been die cut with the new Rectangle Stitched Framelits.

I’ve stamped 4 butterflies from the Butterfly Gala stamp set and coloured selected parts of the wings with my Pineapple Punch and Granny Apple Green Markers.  The sentiment is from the Well Said Bundle.  I attached a piece of Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet to my card stock before I die cut the word “wishes”.  This Bundle was the first thing on my wish list and I can see I’m going to get lots of use out of it.
