CASEing the Catty - #CTC261 Sale-A-Bration Sending Your Thoughts & Sequins


It's the second week of CASEing the Sale-A-Bration brochure at CASEing the Catty.

You maybe starting the blog hop here, so welcome or you may have come from Lauren Meiklejohn.

Yesterday was my first card class for the year and I was launching the Mini Catalogue and Sale-A-Bration promotion and I featured the Metallic Baker's Twine and Sequins Combo Pack and below are my class ladies adhering all those sequins on.



I cased the card to the left which is featured on page 7 of the brochure, I used the Whisper White note cards and envelopes and a thin piece of each of the cardstock and then added the sentiment from the Sending You Thoughts stamps on the banner and inside the card.

With some tombow glue and lots of patience it was then time to add all the sequins, tone on tone and then finally I added a little Metallic Thread and a strip of Designer Series Paper on the inside of the card.

Stamp Set:  Sending You Thoughts
Cardstock:  Whisper White Note Cards and Envelopes, Whisper White, Calypso Coral, So Saffron, Bermuda Bay, Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper
Ink: Bermuda Bay
Accessories:  So Saffron Metallic Thread, Calypso Coral, So Saffron, Bermuda Bay Sequins, Stitched Nested Labels Dies




Love the sequins - tone on tone

CASEing the Catty - #CTC260 Peaceful Poppies




Welcome to 2020 and the first time I have created for they year.  This week at CASEing the Catty, we are showcasing the Mini Catalogue.

You maybe starting the blog hop here, so welcome or you may have come from Peta Stephens.

Wow, what a challenging 3 weeks since Friday, 20 December in the fire effected community of Woodside, Adelaide Hills.  I evacuated on the Friday morning and it was Saturday afternoon when I found out that my home was still standing but the fire had reached to within 400 metres from my home.  I was oh so lucky but 86 homes were destroyed through the Cuddle Creek fire alone and now we have been continually effected by the Kangaroo Island fires and to the wider Australia with over 1,200 homes burnt.

It's just such a difficult time but the community has come together to help each other, it still makes me tear up when I am touched by my family and friends offers of help towards the Adelaide Hills recovery.  I wanted to thank these very generous people by sending them a card. I wanted a quick and simple one that I could generate many times over and the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper made my life oh so easy.

I CASEd the card to the left, and made it simple by not including the velum poppies and leaves and placed the beautiful sentiment "Thinking of you with all my heart" at the bottom of the card and added a few of the Metallic Sequins from the Sale-A-Bration promotion.

Stamp Set:  Peaceful Moments
Cardstock:  Blackberry Bliss, Whisper White, Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper
Ink:  Blackberry Bliss, Rich Razzleberry
Accessories:  Whisper White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon, Painted Labels Dies, Metallic Sequins
