CASEing the Catty #303 the Sale A Bration Catalogue- SIPP using Pretty Perennials stampset

Playing with the fabulous Pretty Perennials set and looking for ways to use it without having the dies or fussy cutting the word Happy- wish there was a die for that! I love SIPP- Stamps, Ink, Paper and Punch.

Of course the Catalogues are great places for inspiration and I was instantly captivated by the card using the postage stamp punch. I love to be able to use products I already own to extend the use of new sets. 




For this card I punched the shapes first and then stamped the flowers off the edge of each,  but you could easily do it the other way around. I felt the white postage stamps were a bit lost next to each other at first so I punched a few more black postage stamp edges and added them to the left side of each stamp. ( also a great way to use us scrapys)
And after I stamped each flower I repeated it on the inside edge to add some fun to the inside.





I love the CTC challenge group and it's nice to play along again. Be sure and check out their Facebook page and all the other inspiring creations there.

This is the card from page 17 of the brochure in the catalogue which has also been CASE'd by Bec this week and by Sandra in a recent challenge


There's some amazing stampsets and papers available as a free item from the Sale-a Bration Brochure when you spend the qualifying amount- $90 in Australia for each level 1 product.

I hope you have a creative week and remember, 
"don't just post online,
 post something pretty!"
cheers, Liz

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
