CTC#69 Love Blossoms- Blushing Pink Roses




Welcome Back for the Sunday Night Blog Hop. Welcome from Rachel's beautiful blog
This week we are CASEing the Love Blossoms section of the Catalogue which is such an amazing section of the Catalogue with loads of ideas and gorgeous products.
 I fell in love with the Rose Garden Bundle so have chosen to CASE this for you, using Blushing Bride over Pink Pirouette and layered up on Sahara Sand. The burlap ribbon is so on trend with weddings currently and it blends nicely with the soft pinks. I have to say that the Fine Tip Glue Pen was a must for this project. How did I manage without it? I have used some Embroidery Thread in the right tone as I wanted pink rather than linen on this project.



For the second card I repeated last week's tip about wrapping the Patterned Vellum around the plain card base for a softer look. The tiny sentiment is from a very old but still much loved set called Tiny Tags, but you could easily use any sentiment you liked for this layout. The fine metallic silver thread is tricky to work with but does add a lovely sparkle. I was tempted to add some Wink of Stella but was dismayed to find that I have finished one already !!!!

And just os show what you can do if you don't have the rose garden thinlits yet here is a sample using the inlaid embossing technique and the circles thinlits.



Next on the hop is  Helen, be sure and check out what she has created for us this week.



Don't forget to join the fun and add your link any time during the Month of March.


Thanks for looking, Liz

    Oh Liz, these are the most gorgeous selection of cards! Lots of inspiration for everyone with your blog. I received my Rose Garden Framelits last week, and have also had a lot of fun with them....now I feel I need to try this sweet, soft pink too!

      Thanks Rachel, I'm sure you will have lots of fun with your thinlits. It does also look fabulous white on white! - but I sold that card before I could photograph it !

      Thanks Helen, yes I use a lot of embroidery thread in my work - it has a gorgeous lustre and it comes in the perfect shade for every colour.

CTC#48 Who doesn't love new DSP

Welcome back to CASEing the Catty for this round. You may have come from Rachel's beautiful project  or you maybe starting here. There are lots of great posts to visit. This week we are using new Designer Series paper from the Holiday Catalogue - and who doesn't love a pack of new paper? The problem of course is which one to choose.... followed by the problem of actually having to CUT into a pristine pack. ....I know you all know what I mean. I have lots of photos for you today to try and show off some of the designs, but it's not easy to capture and they always look so much better in real life. I have purchased two packs - the Happy Haunting pack on page 47, which I was inspired to get purely from the background piece on the Lighthearted Leaves card on page 44. I don't celebrate Halloween, nor am I usually all that partial to Orange shades, but maybe that's changing! because I really like the designs. The pack has several papers that are specifically...

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...
