#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.

#CTC374 CASE Favourite Retiring Mini Bundle



CASE your Favourite Mini Catalogue Retiring Bundle:

This time I've chosen a bundle that is retiring although both the stamps and dies appear in the new Annual Catalogue. You'll find it on Pg 80 - the Hello Beautiful Bundle.


I've used a base of Pool Party. Onto a piece of scrap card I've laid strips of Texture Chic Specialty DSP along with a strip of Basic White then attached the panel to the base. 

The greeting from Go To Greetings is stamped in Soft Succulent onto the Basic White panel. I've cut a banner using a strip of Vellum Layering Designs and one of the diamond shape dies from Beautiful Shapes Dies cut the banner tail. Two hexagon dies on Petal Pink cardstock cut the hexagon frame and it was attached over the banner and greeting. To finish I've added a few Basic White hydrangeas cut using the Hydrangea Dies. 


This Specialty DSP is going to be a new favourite of mine I think. Looks so much better in real life!


We hope to see you play along with the challenge this week. Post the photo of your CASE of your Favourite Retiring Mini Bundle to our Facebook page using the link over on the right before next Sunday evening.

Next on the hop we have Kathryn and her fabulous card for a handy person:
