#CTC391 CASE Mini Catalogue Bundle

 

CASE a Mini Catalogue Bundle pages 72-79

Bottom right of Page 173 was my choice this week.

I started with a piece of Abigail Rose DSP trimmed and matted with Poppy Parade cardstock and added to a base of Thick Basic White.

I used the bow from Christmas Scottie and stamped several using Parakeet Party ink and Basic White cardstock. I used the Scottie Dog punch to cut the bows out. I traced a circle onto the Abigail Rose cardstock to help get the bows relatively in order and adhered them with 7 spaced apart for my first layer then 6 more to cover the gaps as a second layer. 

The greeting was also from Christmas Scottie stamped using Starry Sky ink onto Smokey Slate cardstock and trimmed. I used this to fill the gap my last bow would have taken on the second layer. 

The little dog was one I had played with when I initally received this bundle and he was too cute to throw away. Stamped using the plaid stamp from the same stamp set and Tahitian Tide ink on Basic White cardstock. I've added a little bow from the (retired) Santa's Workshop Enamel Shapes for his collar and popped him in place using Stampin' Dimensionals.

My embellishments have been added to each bow with my old (retired) favourite Flowers for Every Season Gems. Small for the first layer of bows and large for the top layer.

I also switched orientation to landscape dictated by the piece of DSP I chose to use but am happy with the look.

Not my usual sort of colour combination either, but sometimes it's good to pop out of our comfort zones.

We hope to see you play along before next Sunday evening by creating a card from within the page range listed above in your mini catalogue and posting to our Facebook page using the link over to the right if you need.

Next on the hop we have our lovely friend Rachel:

#CTC385 CASE a Glitter Project

CASE a Glitter Project

The card on the bottom of Page 33 of the Jul-Dec Mini Catalogue called out to me for this one:

I've started by die-cutting circles using the Beautiful Shapes Dies from Texture Chic Specialty DSP and Gold & Rose Metallic Specialty Paper. 

I chose my background of Abigail Rose DSP and added a panel to a base of Thick Very Vanilla cardstock. Before adhering the Abigail Rose panel to the base I added the outside group of circles. I didn't want raised joins, and to get around that I chomped again using the same size circle die where required then butted each die cut up to the other when adhering. Once the outer circles were in place, I trimmed them and added the mat to the base card.

I then filled the inside layers given my card was a standard size and the one I cased was a slimmer card. To get around the big gap that may have been left,  I cut a larger circle from Evening Evergreen cardstock and popped the greeting from Peaceful Moments onto that. I am on a mission to use up some of my ribbon stash and for this I used a (retired) Daffodil Delight sheer ribbon behind the greeting, which was then popped onto the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.

As you can see, the Metallic Specialty paper is quite hard to photograph but those circles non Texture Chic are all the same colour.

Do you see a Glitter project you think you'd like to CASE? Please do, and play along before next Sunday evening by posting a photo of your project to our page using the link over on the right.

Next up we have Michelle and her lovely take on Christmas:
