Hello and welcome to my blog. This week at CASEing the Catty we’re CASEing from the Sale-A-Bration Catty again. 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 the post.
I’ve used the “get well soon” card on the left hand side of page 15, as my inspiration.
I’ve changed up the colours but kept very close to the layout.
I did struggle putting this card together. I like things nice and square and even so this card really challenged me. My card base is Basic Gray followed by a layer of Mint Macaron which has been embossed with the Splatters Embossing Folder. Next I added a layer of Splendid Day SDSP. The leaf image is Silver Heat Embossed on Basic White card stock then I’ve used a Blending Brush to add a little colour. I’ve used the Stitched Rectangle Dies to create the rectangle and the frame around my leaf image.
I’ve added a couple of strips of Splendid Day SDSP behind the leaf image. To tie in the sentiment I’ve stamped some Fresh Freesia card stock with Basic Gray ink using the Art Gallery stamp set. I’ve also added some Sparkle & Shine Sequins for a touch of bling.
Marvi has been stuck inside all day as we’ve been concreting up one side of the house. I’m sure he thought if he posed nicely I’d let him out to add his paw of approval.

I’d be a bit challenged by all those angles, too! Your card looks fantastic, especially the soft colouring over the silver embossing.
Well done for stepping outside your comfort zone Peta. Love the colour choice – again matches Marvi’s eyes. The silver embossing adds a nice touch and I like the stripes you’ve chosen to add behind the image. The embossed panel is the perfect background to set it all off.
Well you did a great job with your angles layering – and all the texture is glorious. Love the heat embossed sponged background. Very beautiful card.
