Welcome to this week’s CASEing the Catty Blog Hop. This week our inspiration comes from the Festive Farmhouse section, pages 12-17 of the 2018 Holiday Catalogue. You may have arrived here from Monique’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.
The 2018 Holiday Catalogue has been live for a few days now. What’s your favourite suite? There’s lots to love in the Festive Farmhouse Suite.
I’ve used the “Merry Christmas ” card in the top right hand corner of page 12 as my inspiration this week. Here’s a closer look.
I don’t actually have any of the products used in this sample so here is my version of this card using what I have. That’s what’s so great about CASEing the Catty, you can use what you’ve got to re-create the samples.
My card base is Tranquil Tide with a layer of Grey Granite which has been embossed with the Simple Stripes Embossing Folder. I’ve got some Copper Foil peeking out from behind the Grey Granite. Next I’ve layered two pieces of the gorgeous new Tranquil Tide 1/4″ Velvet Ribbon.
I have several layers behind my sentiment. First I fussy cut the wreath image from Petal Promenade DSP, a Stitched Shape Square in Gray Granite, a square of Joyous Noel Specialty DSP, a Stitched Label Circle in Tranquil Tide, a sliver of Tranquil Tide Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper then the sentiment from Peaceful Noel stamped in Tranquil Tide. I’ve also added a tiny bow of Glimmer Paper die cut from Bouquet Bunch Framelits.
My assistant, Marvi, was not wanting to help today. He really wanted me to rub his tummy instead.

Oh Marvi, I’ll give you a pat!! I love all the details of your card, it’s stunning.
Doesn’t the tranquil tide and gray granite look amazing together! And all those layers! Yum. Fantastic. Case. I’d love to case your card if that’s ok!?
You’re more than welcome to CASE this Julia.
What a beautiful CASE Peta, using what you have is what we’re all about, and gee you’ve done a fine job with substituting other elements. So many beautiful layers, Love the 2 pieces of ribbon side by side and the hand cut holly wreath is amazing. Very festive.
Snap on the card choice Peta, but so different. Love your fresh choice of colours. Stunning card but obviously doesn’t appeal to Marvi lol!
Love all the details in your card, Peta and the colour combo us divine! What a lovely spotty and fluffy tummy Marvi has! He’s a big boy!
Love your colour combination Peta, such a pretty card x
I love the shot of your card next to the cat. It’s brilliant and hilarious!
