#CTC291 CASE a Project from pgs 71-75 Aug-Dec Catalogue

 

We have a few to choose from:


I've chosen the picture top right of pg 75:


Funnily, I've accidentally repeated my colour palette from a a couple of weeks back. I think it is because I love this DSP!!

I've started with a base of thick Whisper White cardstock and added a same size sheet of Peony Garden DSP.

Onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock, I've stamped some critters from Someone Special in Gray Granite ink, and filled the image with Petal Pink ink.. I've added a piece of Peony Garden DSP stamped with the umbrella image and punched using the Umbrella Builder Punch. The greeting is also from Under My Umbrella using Gray Granite ink.

I've cut the whole piece out using the Rectangle Stitched Dies, with a matching size cut from Petal Pink cardstock. A smaller die was used to cut a tiny rectangle which was folded to use for the tab top. I've punched a whole and threaded some Petal Pink Organdy Ribbon and tied it with Linen Thread.


Thanks for stopping past. Please continue onto Shannon's fabulous creation:

#CTC281 CASE from Annual Catalogue Punch Bundle Section

 
CASEing the Punch Bundle Section, pages 168-169:

This picture also happens to use the card I've CASEd - the top picture, which is the third card down on page 168.

I don't own the Field of Flowers punch but the card reminded me instantly of the Painted Poppies I'd used recently so I reached for that set to begin. I stamped the poppies onto Whisper White with Old Olive Ink. To resemble California wild poppies I've coloured with Dark Mango Melody and Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blends. 

The greeting from Special Someone is heat embossed with White Embossing powder onto Pumpkin Pie cardstock. I've trimmed it to 1/2" thick and instead of a banner, I've used the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch to give some interest to one side of the greeting. I've adhered this panel onto a diecut of Ornate Layers dies using Old Olive cardstock. I've trimmed it straight as per the CASEd card and popped it all on Stampin' Dimensionals. 

Next I've stamped the butterflies from Special Someone in Old Olive - the CASE used four flying critters, but I had to add an extra. To finish it all off, I've used Wink of Stella on both the butterflies and the flowers.

I've even managed to give a bit of inside love to this card using another image from Painted Poppies and the same Blends as above along with Old Olive and again finished with Wink of Stella:

This may give a better idea of the Wink of Stella effect:
