Hello and welcome to my blog. I hope you’ve had a great week, mine has been busy as usual. Marvi had to get his vaccinations on Friday and he also had another weight in. He’s been on a “diet” for years but nothing seems to work. Six months ago I changed his dry food to a diet dry food and finally he’s lost some weight. He’s now at 6.6kg, down from 7.4kg. Woohoo!!!
This week at CASEing the Catty we are CASEing any project from the Annual Catty and giving it a Mini Catty Twist. 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 chosen the “Just Wanted To Say Hello” card on page 48 of the Annual Catalogue.
I’ve kept fairly close to the original layout but changed up the colours. I don’t make many Christmas cards in traditional colours of green and red but I have today.
I’ve used Thick Whisper White for my card base then added a layer of Merry Merlot. I’ve embossed the next layer with one of the Wrapped In Texture Embossing Folders. I’ve die cut some Gold Foil Sheet with the Ornate Layers Dies and Gold Heat Embossed my sentiment then used the Stitched Rectangles to die cut it.
I’ve used the North Pole Wonder Dies to die cut the leaves in Merry Merlot and Garden Green.
Mr Marvi didn’t enjoy his first ride in Ralph the Range Rover, he cried all the way to the vets. I’ve tried to take a flattering photo of him showing how slim he’s looking.
It’s time to hop over and see Siobhan’s wonderful creation. Just click on the next button below.
Thanks for stopping by.
How have I not seen that embossing folder!! I love your take of this card! And well done Marvi on your weightloss!!
I love your version. I love all the different textures and that it is mainly white with just the touches of others colours. The gold ornate frame looks great for the sentiment
Yay for Marvi’s weight loss, and yay for your gorgeous card! I prefer your version of the card, all the crisp white is lovely.
