CASE-ing the Catty Into the Woods - CTC55

I am sharing a gift bottle tag which I made for a friend for CASE-ing the Catty this week which has the very cute Thankful Forest Friends stamp set and matching Into the Woods Designer Series Paper as we are featuring the section Into the Woods.

You may have come from Rebecca Scurr or you might be starting here, don't forget to hop to all the posts as you will be amazed at the creations this week.


I have used the above image for my inspiration with the In the Woods Designer Series Paper as a background to a Whisper White circle with the bear stamped in Chocolate Chip and then fussy cut out.  I have then used a wooden snowflake element with some gold cord and sequin trim to finish it off.

Don't you just love all the animal in this set, they are just so cute!

Stamp Set:  Thankful Forest Friends, Petite Pairs
Cardstock:  Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White, Into the Woods Designer Series Paper
Ink: Soft Suede, Old Olive

Masking Technique ... You're Got This

One of my favourite stamp sets in the Annual Catalogue is You've Got This, it has a wonderful flower for colouring, 3 sentiments and a great background stamp for all occasions.

Look what you can create a beautiful look of layers and colours easily with the masking technique.  I usually use a post it note to stick onto the image so it does not move.  Check out the video.
