CTC#128 Favourite Kit gets a makeover

Hello again, and Welcome back for another rounf of CASEing the Catty. This week we are taking inspiration from any of the kits available. 
I'm not a big user of kits but I do love how everything is beautifully presented and super easy to assemble.


I have taken the colour theme  from Perfectly Wrapped  kit on pate 159 this week as the inspiration point for my project. (that's it on the left in the Blog header here)
The kits are all shown in pages 158-161, 


Black and White, Tangerine Tango and Emerald Envy- super strong combination! I have to admit Tangerine is not one of the ink colours I use much - or even own!, but I did have a little bit of card and paper. I'm really going to miss the Love you Lots set from the Hostess section of this catalogue- it's perfect for kids cards.
I didn't have much in Black and White either - but luckily the cards from the Project Life kits are often great backgrounds.



Thanks so much for looking,


This week Bec is next on the hop

  4. I am like you Liz, I don't use Tangerine Tango much either but it really does pop when coordinated with Emerald Envy and Basic Black. I love the little frog on the inside of your card most I think - what a cutie.

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car

#Onstage Sydney 2022 Fancy Flora Suite , Display Stamping # 1 beginner, casual, avid samples

I'm so honoured to have been asked to present the premier suite "Fancy Flora" from the new Mini Catalogue - what a treat. ( Available January 5 - May 12023 ). This is one of a series of posts showing some of the projects I created using this suite. It's a long one so grab a cuppa and enjoy my tips and tricks and first projects. Relieved the presentation is over and with my samples on the board! Firstly I had the pleasure of showing the suite- 2 stampsets, 2 sets of dies, some 6x6 DSP, Shimmer Card, Ribbon and Gems. With every new set I allow myself plenty of time to just play with it and explore the possibilities in colour and layout. In doing this I create a series of Mood boards that make it much faster when I come to use the product to quickly identify how many dies in each set, how many stamps and which ones match the dies, and which ribbons and bling I have in my stash- or in the current catalogues that match the colours of the new suite. That way I don't for
