CASEing the Catty - #CTC586 Case the September to December Catalogue

 

On Tuesday the new Stampin' Up! catalogue was launched and CASEing the Catty as caseing the whole catalogue so you have so much inspiration this week.

Welcome to the blog hop or you may have come from Judy May.

The Neutral Noel Suite Collection is my currently my favourite and I could not go past caseing the card featured on page 17 of the catalogue.

I chose to change the background with the Pecan Pie and Crumb Cake paper from Neutral Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper which I layered onto a card base of Pecan Pie.  

I then cut out the oval die with the Vanilla Textured Canvas Specialty Paper which gives even more texture (this is only being released in the November Online Exclusives) and stamped the sentiment in the centre.  To create the wreath I cut it out twice with Mossy Meadow and Old Olive and cut a strip of the gold foliage piece of SDSP and then stamped the leaves in Mossy Meadow onto Very Vanilla cardstock and the pinecones in Pecan Pie.  

After adhering all the images I used the retired Copper Metallic Enamels Effects to create the berries to match the Pecan Pie background (instead of the Gold Adhesive Back Dots or the die cut berries).

CASEing the Catty - #CTC582 Case a Scrapbook Layout

This week at Caseing the Catty we are caseing a scrapbook layout.

Welcome to the blog hop or you may have come from Peta Stephen.

I have been busy making the Extraordinary Life Scrapbooking Workshop Kit to give to a friend of mine to add to her Wedding Album that I gave to her back in May.

It is an exact copy of the kit with only a couple of extra stickers and precut images added that was left over.  If you are just starting out these kits are fantastic as you don't need to have any additional supplies only some adhesive.

CASEing the Catty - #CTC581 Case Velvet Meadow Suite

This week at CASEing the Catty we are featuring the Velvet Meadow Suite which is on pages 32 and 33 of the May to August Catalogue.

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

What a beautiful suite this is and I love the Velvet Meadow Specialty Designer Series Paper which I could not go past using again.  

I have completed a direct case from the sample in the catalogue with a few differences.  I don't have the banner dies, so I just used my scissors to create the bottom feature of the banner.  

I also used the upcoming Notes of Collage Bundles for the foliage in Peaceful Pine, this set will be released in November in the Online Exclusives.  I stamped a little floral image in Basic Beige from the Fern & Floral stamp set and the sentiment in Berry Burst comes from the Lilly of the Valley.

Finally I added some white flower embellishments from the packet of Hues of Blues Flowers which I coloured some with a Berry Burst Blend.

Stamp Set:  Notes of College, Lily of the Valley, Fern & Flora

Cardstock:  Bubble Bath, Basic White, Velvet Meadows Specialty Designer Series Paper

Ink:  Peaceful Pine, Berry Burst

Accessories:  Cut and Emboss Machine, Notes of Collage Dies, Hues of Blue Flowers

Welcome to the blog hop or you may have come from Monique Fielder.

It's July, and it's one of my favourite times with Stampin' Up! as it's Christmas in July where I start my Christmas card collection each year and this week I am caseing one of the cards from the Pretty Poinsettia bundle.   

My card is an exact copy using the three red tones - Poppy Parade, Real Red and Cherry Cobbler in the poinsettias.  I then stamped the leaves in Garden Green and Mossy Meadow before die cutting them all out.  

Starting with a Crumb Cake card base I stamped tone on tone with the cute little flower clusters in the corners and then added the poinsettias with dimensional and added the sentiment in the centre and then poked in the leaves all around the centrepiece.
