Foliage Framelit and the new Embossing Mats- CASEing Chad


HI again,

I'm still playing with the fabulous Foliage Frame Framelits.  If you have followed my earlier posts over the last few days you would have seen those samples. It really is a beautiful suite.

I have again used the embossing mats and the large floral framelit, and that's all from the set this time.

Today I have a few easel cards. If you follow me you'll know I do lots of Easel cards- they are a great seller at the markets and I will have a stall at the Rockhampton River Festival next month so I'm madly creating lots of cards!
I've used the gorgeous Garden Impressions Paper for these- and how ADORABLE are those new little Candle Embellishments - 12 gold and 12 silver adhesive backed candles in the pack. I'm sad because I only just discovered that the gold and silver metallic hearts and stars are retired. I think they look perfect with these.....


This little resin flower is not Stampin' Up! - using up some of the trinkets in my useful box -  but the blossoms elements which are new would work a treat I'm sure.(page 198)



The sentiments for this are from Beautiful You, and the ribbon is the gorgeous new Tea Room ribbon combo Pack.


I shared the Stampin' Up! video about using the new Embossing Mats.If you watch it until the end you'll see Chad's Card- and I have CASEd that today. Such a great way to share ideas and inspiration.






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

cheers, Liz

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...

CTC#100 Presents and Pinecones

Can you believe we are 100 posts young???? Welcome to the 100th post for CASEing the Catty. You may have arrived form Katherine's post or you maybe starting here- Welcome! Be sure to hop around all the participants this week as we take inspiration from the Presents and Pinecones. I've been short of time with lots of commitments- aren't we all too busy?? So I needed a quick card for this week's post - which is perfect as I am planning a stamp-a-stack for Christmas class. It's a very big section of the catalogue but I settled on the gorgeous card on page xxx I have a few different versions using the same layout but different colours and embellishments. Not everyone loves tying bows so I tried to make them very simple. Heat embossing is such a simple way to add instant pizazz. The sparkling emerald Envy embossing powder is fantastic but I would advise definitely using your embossing buddy to minimise the amount of stray glitter, and I would also advise ...

CI#04 Jars of Love

Welcome back for another Colour INKspiration challenge. Aren't those pansies in the inspiration picture this week just stunning - those gorgeous yellows and strong purples. These are not colours I normally gravitate to but a challenge is all about extending yourself so i'm glad to have had a go! I have recreated a selection of jars with my very favourite Jar of Love set. I have made cards like this before using very bright colours which are fun and very sweet, (and I'll post them tomorrow, so make sure you have filled in the follow by email box on the right side of this page) but today I needed to make a Sympathy card for a good friend who also loves Stampin' Up! It's a card for my work friends to give a colleague so it needed to be big enough for lots of people to sign it.  This card measures 13 x 19cm and I chose this size simply because I had some large envelopes left over from some wedding stationery- they have a little embossed heart on the flap whic...
