#CTC283 CASE the Colours of Trimming the Tree DSP

We are CASEing the colours of Trimming the Tree DSP this week - Early Espresso, Misty Moonlight, Old Olive, Pool Party, Poppy Parade and Whisper White


I've used all the colours, but also CASEd the card on the top right of page 12:


I've used a base of thick Whisper White and added a mat of Poppy Parade. I've stamped the holly image from Gift Wrapped in Pool Party ink onto a top layer of Pool Party cardstock. I've trimmed Misty Moonlight cardstock into inch wide stripes and embossed them with the Old World Paper 3D Embossing folder and adhered them to the card. Next I've used Bird & More dies to cut some foliage from Old Olive and added it to the embossed panel.

I've Clear Embossed the bow image by stamping onto Versamark and then into Poppy Parade ink before stamping on Whisper White cardstock, covering the image with Clear Embossing powder and heat setting. I liked the effect so did the same with the greeting from the same set using the Versamark then Early Espresso and clear embossing. The bow has been punched out with the Gift Bow Builder punch and the greeting with the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch before adding them both to the card. I've used the clear Flowers for All Seasons gems to finish but in a different way than the CASEd card.


This angle may show the detail better:

  4. What a cute present/card! I adore the red striped bow. Using the Old World Paper EF on the "ribbon" pieces really makes it look like crinkled ribbon - so clever!
