CASEing the Catty - #CTC408 Mini Catalogue Bundle Two-Tone Flora Bundle



This week at CASEing the Catty we are highlighting the Mini Catalogue Bundles from pages 76 through to 83.

You may be starting here so welcome or you may have come from Peta Stephen.

I had a card class last weekend and I made a similar card, so when I had the Two-Tone bundle out I decided to create for this week's challenge.

I started with a lovely piece of my favourite Fancy Floral Designer Series Paper and put this through the large background die, layering this on a Soft Sea Foam cardstock.  

It was then just stamping the flowers and leaves and a sentiment in shades of yellow and green, finishing it off with a twine bow and some gems.

Stamp Set:  Two-Tone Flora, Go To Greetings
Cardstock:  Soft Sea Foam, Basic White, Fancy Floral Designer Series Paper
Ink: Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Mossy Meadow, Evening Evergreen
Accessories:  Cut n Emboss Machine, Two-Tone Flora Dies,  Something Fancy Dies, Iridescent Pastel Gems, Mossy Meadow Braided Linen Trim (retired)

I have chosen to case the card on page 4 of the brochure which has two of the cutest owls.

I started with the stamping the owls in Black Memento onto Basic White and using Smokey Slate blends with a little Balmy Blue and Pumpkin Pie.

I have fussy cut the owls and then went around the owls with a little Pool Party blends to colour in the white, they are layered onto a piece of Fancy Floral Designer Series paper.  It was then cut a little piece of Basic White ribbon and Balm Blue sentiment and border to finish it off.

CASEing the Catty - #CTC405 Sale-A-Bration Sketch Fancy Flora Suite

 


Today at CASEing the Catty, we are featuring a Sale-A-Bration sketch challenge, I have been inspired to use the Fancy flora Suite Collection.

Welcome to the blog hop or you may have come from Rebecca Scurr.

A couple of strips of Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper and a couple of thin strip of Calypso Coral cardstock made my background for the four panels of the sketch to the right.

I then used the Two-Tone Flora stamp set which is a two step set and dies with matching colours from the Designer Series Paper of Soft Succulent and Orchid Oasis for the flowers which I stamped off the ink to create the two tone effect.  I then grouped them around the sentiment which comes from the Something Fancy Stamp and matching Dies and added some of the Golf Faceted Sequins.

Stamp Set:  Two-Tone Flora, Something Fancy
Cardstock:  Thick Basic White, Calypso Coral, Basic White, Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper
Ink:  Orchid Oasis
Accessories:  Cut 'n Emboss Machine, Two-Tone Flora Dies, Something Fancy Dies, Gold Faceted Adhesive Backed Sequins

CASEing the Catty - #CTC401 Case Sale-A-Bration Dainty Flowers



Happy New Year!  Welcome to 2023!

It's been awhile since I have created and participated in CASEing the Catty.  In November I accidentally smashed the screen on my laptop and was lucky enough to be able to claim it under my House and Contents insurance so I have a brand new MacBook Pro 16 inch screen and I am loving it, however with this comes with loosing Photoshop for editing my photographs and adding my watermark, so it's been a bit of a challenge getting back to blog posting.

Well enough of this talk, it's all about the Sale-A-Bration brochure this week #CTC401, you can case any of the 20 pages of inspiration.

Welcome to the blog hop or you may have come from Julia Quinn.

I have chosen to feature the card on page 7 of the brochure which is also featured to the left.

With a base of Crushed Curry cardstock I layered a wonderful piece of the Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper which is FREE with a $90 purchase from either catalogues.

I then added the sentiment in Balmy Blue and some ribbon and twine in a lovely double bow and some gold sequins.

A very quick and easy card ready to send out in a matter of minutes and I made a few different versions of this card for some birthday celebrations.

Stamp Set:  Something Fancy
Cardstock:  Crushed Curry,  Balmy Blue, Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper
Ink:  Starry Sky
Accessories:  Cut and Emboss Machine, Something Fancy Dies, Gold Faceted Adhesive-Backed Sequins, Starry Sky 1/8" Metallic Woven Ribbon, Start Sky Baker's Twine
