CASEing the Catty CTC486 -Sep-Dec Mini Catalogue

With the launch of a new catalogue last Tuesday, this week’s CTC 486 CASEing the Catty Challenge is to CASE the Stampin’ Up! September-December Mini Catalogue.

I can’t go past a sketch so I picked this card from Page 30 which uses the Nests of Winter Suite. I substituted the products with the Regal Winter suite.

My colour palette was determined by the sheet of Regal Winter Designer Series Paper I chose for my card which had rich hues of blue and purple on it.

I started by stamping the flowers and leaves, choosing 2 coordinating colours to create depth and more cohesiveness with the Designer Series Paper. The flowers were inked in Gorgeous Grape and then I added Night of Navy direct to the stamp with a Blending Brush before stamping each flower. I did the same with the leaves using Granny Apple Green and Shaded Spruce.

I clustered the flowers and leaves with some additional foliage from the Thoughtful Wishes dies. These were die cut from a Basic White Cardstock panel blended with Night of Navy, Gorgeous Grape and Smoky Slate ink. This technique provides beautiful shading on leaves and I was able to coordinate it to the leaves on the Designer Series Paper.

The patterned paper was layered onto a panel of Gorgeous Grape which had been blended with Night of Navy ink. This made the Cardstock tone better with the DSP. To resemble the white panel on the original card I added a thin strip of Silver Foil.

Behind the flowers I added a label from the Regal Flora dies which I die cut from another sheet of Regal Winter DSP. I cut this in half and offset it and arranged the flowers around it. A heat embossed sentiment in silver and some pearls complete this card.

I hope you consider adding the stunning Regal Winter suite to your collection. It includes specialty paper as well and with a range of sentiments, you will find many ways to create with it.

CASEing the Catty Challenge CTC481 – Page 25 Sketch

Hello friends, Welcome to our CASEing the Catty Challenge and this week we are CASEing this fun sketch which is on Page 25 of the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue.

I’ve created a Christmas card using the Golden Greenery bundle which is part of our Online Exclusives collection.

The suite this bundle is part of includes some beautiful Designer Series Paper which is in tones of green and I wanted to give this card a slightly softer look by changing the colours. Of course, I went with pink!

I created 2 square frames using the Stylish Shapes dies and added a piece of Graceful Greenery Vellum behind it. I love how the Vellum adds that softness while still being able to see the Bright and Beautiful Designer Series Paper behind it. From 6th – 31st August you can get this paper and several others on sale at 15% discount so make sure to hop back and check that out.

The outline of the bells were stamped in Petunia Pop, stamped off and the main image was stamped in Pretty in Pink, stamped off. I added detail onto the bells with Watercolour Pencils. I die cut some leaves from Basic White Cardstock and blended a range of colours to add some shading to them, trimming them down so they fit around they bells.

A trio of white flowers, coloured with Bubble Bath and Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends, layered together, created the flower which is on top of a bow which was also made from Bright & Beautiful DSP.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this alternate take with this bundle. Let me know what you think of it by leaving me a comment. I love hearing from you.
