This week the crew are CASEing a layout on page 52 of the Holiday Catalogue:
I have randomly selected the top left of this layout. The little coffin boxes reminded me of the Tailored Tag punch and that's where I began.
I chose the Mosaic Mood Specialty DSP. I used a strip and cut it in half then adhered it to a base of thick Whisper White cardstock. I've punched 7 Tailored Tags from a different sheet of the same DSP and sponged the edges with Soft Suede. My gears were cut from the Garage Gears dies and backed with Whisper White cardstock and sponged around the edges and over the white to grunge it up. The car from Geared Up Garage was stamped in Black Memento Ink onto Crushed Curry cardstock and diecut from the same set of dies as mentioned earlier. The car was adhered to the cogs, and the whole piece was raised with Stampin' Dimensionals. The greeting was to balance my card and in lieu of the ribbon used in the original, Memento Black with a set of cogs behind.
Sorry, couldn't help showing off one of my beautiful peony roses. My garden has been calling even though the weather has not played in my favour until this long Labour weekend in NZ. My body is now reminding me I am getting older lol.
Time now to see what our lovely Tina has to show you. Feel free to play along posting your photo to our Facebook page using the link over to the right:
A few choices on page 103 for your layout, once you decide you just switch the theme.
I've gone with the card on the bottom right:
I've made a bolder colour choice than the greys in the photo. Onto a base card of Crushed Curry is a full size panel of Mosaic Mood Specialty DSP. On a separate piece of Crushed Curry I've inked the Butterfly Wishes image that matches the Butterfly Duet punch with Mango Melody.and stamped all over. To dull down the impact a little, I've added a mat of Crumb Cake. I liked the position of the layer onto the background so have replicated that as well. Next is a 2 1/2" circle of Pressed Petals DSP. The butterfly is in the same Mango Melody ink but onto whisper white card, punched out then added using a Stampin' Dimensional. The words are from Good Morning Magnolia and cut apart to get the message I wanted. Finished off with rhinestones.
Please continue on the hop and visit the lovely Judy May. After that make a card, take a photo and paste to our Facebook page using the link over on the right - you have until next Sunday evening, don't forget to add #CTC239
This week the crew are CASEing any layout from the Occasions Catalogue.
I've chosen the image top right of page 38
I have a base of Thick Whisper White layered with a mat of Whisper White embossed with the Country Floral 3D TIEF. The 3 panels of DSP are a sneak peek of Mosaic Mood Specialty DSP all On Stage attendees received.
I have broken the fibres on a scrap of Pumpkin Pie cardstock and separated it to use the inside for some fluffy texture. The greeting from Better With You stamped in Sahara Sand, trimmed and adhered to that piece. The bird from the same set has been stamped with Sahara Sand and coloured with Stampin' Blends then fussy cut. Foliage Frame Framelits will be sadly missed by me #getthemwhileyoucan, and were used for the white and pumpkin diecut elements. All these were popped onto a trimmed BlackBerry Bliss diecut from Springtime Impressions and raised with Stampin' Dimensionals. My final case was the three butterflies with mine coming from the Butterfly Beauty dies which will carryover (yay!) using BlackBerry Bliss cardstock
Time to hop over and check out what the lovely Judy has for us this week:
