#CTC243 CASE a Card and Make it a 3D Project

This will get the grey matter thinking a bit, but hopefully the crew projects will help get you started.

I've sort of gone with this card on the bottom right of page 36, using DSP for my background, and magnolia flowers. 

I also went with the trending idea of upcycling! I've taken a Queen Anne Chocolate box and gently opened it out and adhered my Pressed Petals Specialty DSP to the lid before reconstructing. 

Inside the base of the box has a piece of Crumb Cake trimmed to fit:

Some more Pressed Petals Specialty DSP (with a linen look to it) was used to fit underneath the box and around the sides:

I started with the plain Blushing Bride cardstock flower with a Merry Merlot detailed shape adhered over top placed on the top left. The rest of the magnolias are made from Blushing Bride, diecut with the Magnolia Memory Dies then sponged around the edges and behind the upper petals with Merry Merlot ink. Stamens from Daffodil Delight, all pieces were 'pulled' into shape with the help of my bone folder and adhered in place. A few leaves from Mossy Meadow and a bow of Night of Navy/Sahara Sand Baker's Twine.

Plenty of room on the inside for a gift and greeting card as well.

Time now to check out what our lovely Judy has to share:

#CTC239 A Layout from pg 103 & Change the Theme

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
