#CTC271 CASE the New Catalogue

We are CASEing the inside of the new catalogue this week, as we couldn't share images of the inside last week, so this is Week 2 of CTC271.

I've chosen the card on the bottom right of page 44:

I've diecut a heap of Stitched Nested Labels shapes from Seaside Spray cardstock as well as one in Whisper White, and made a template to hold each blank in the Stamparatus. Next, again using the Stamparatus, I lined up the greeting from Butterfly Wishes and using Granny Apple Green stamped each of the blanks - much easier than lining up the greeting each time.

I've adhered them randomly to a full card size piece of Seaside Spray cardstock and stuck that to a thick Whisper White base.

I've diecut the top layer of the flower from Many Layered Blossoms dies in Highland Heather, and the second layer from Purple Posy, along with the leaves in Granny Apple Green. A bit of fussy cutting to narrow down to the shapes I wanted, and I glued them together with Tombow. I added a background of Bumblebee In Colour 6" x 6" DSP. Next I diecut a Whisper White circle using Layering Circles and embossed it with the Subtle 3D embossing folder then glued it onto a scallop circle of Granny Apple Green adding the floral arrangement on top.

A piece of Petal Pink Organdy Striped ribbon is tucked under the scallop and the White shape has been popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals.

We hope you're able to join us this week. Use the link over on the right and post your card to our Facebook page before next Sunday evening.

Next up is our lovely Julia and she has a stunning array of cards to show us:

#CTC271 CASE the New Catalogue Cover

Just one week of CASEing the new Catalogue Cover with the crew - hope you can play along, add your photo with the link over on the right. For Week 2 - we get to go inside the covers!!

Today I'm using the new bundle of Birds & Branches stamp set and Birds & More dies which you will find on page 120.

My inspiration has been the colour palette and I don't know if it has been written anywhere, but what I've guessed is: Balmy Blue, Bermuda Bay, Blushing Bride, Bumblebee, Coastal Cabana and Rich Razzleberry. 

I stamped onto Whisper White scraps of card; a bird and eggs in Balmy Blue, another bird in Coastal Cabana, flowers in Blushing Bride, onto Bumblee cardstock a nest in Rich Razzleberry and diecut all out along with a tree branch in Bermuda Bay.

The greeting is from the retiring Stitched All Round in Coastal Cabana ink.

I've simply adhered all my pieces with multi purpose adhesive and matted with Blushing Bride onto a base of thick Whisper White.

I love the idea of limiting yourself to a set colour palette of ink and cardstock and seeing what comes out of it! 

Next up on the hop is Monique who has been playing with some new In-colours:
