Hello and welcome to my blog. This week at CASEing the Catty we are CASEing from the new Jan – April 2026 Mini Catalogue. You may have hopped over from Julia’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of the post.
The Gears & Textures Bundle stood out to me and was the first thing on my Wishlist so I’ve CASEd a card on page 53 which uses this bundle.
The Gears & Textures Bundle creates mechanical-inspired cards with raw, urban style. It features industrial textures and distressed effects and bold dies for gears, chains, and wire.
My card base is Basic Gray followed by a layer of Irresistible Designs SDSP which I’ve added some Smoky Slate ink to with a Blending Brush. I’ve stamped a couple of the images directly onto this layer as well. The gears are die cut in Gold Foil Sheet and also stamped in Night of Navy and Misty Moonlight.
The flowers and leaves are also from the Irresistible Designs SDSP with Lemon Lolly and Misty Moonlight ink added with a Blending Brush. My favourite part of this card are the Phillips Head Screws which are die cut from Basic Black and Silver Foil Sheet. The sentiment is from the Banner Sayings stamp set.
Marvi was telling me he needed some more food. He’d already had his breakfast and his dry food however he thought he needed more. It was his 13th Birthday on Friday and he was totally spoiled with fresh fish and prawns for dinner.
It’s time to hop over and see Monique’s wonderful creation. Just click on the next button below.

A wonderful card Peta. I love this bundle and your description of the card – beautifully said. There is so much to love about your card – the different layers and papers ++. The filament globes a great too.
Great card! Love using Irresistable Designs with it. Marvi is the best creativity displayer ever! Opinionated, though.
Happy 13th Birthday, Marvi!!!
What a great card, Peta! I love all the textural elements! My favorite is the light bulb, but the screw heads are also amazing!
I may have to get this set, although I’m not making masculine cards for my sons-in-law anymore. They could care less about cards. I am still making cards for my husband, even tho he doesn’t care either.
Men!
Have a great week!! I’ll send some of our 80 degrees with sun your way!
Hello, love the card & love your kitty.
I know what card to make for a friend.
Many Blessings, Bev
