CTC 197 Joyous Noel chistmas project

HI all, just a quick post today - where does the day go???
I was inspired by the gorgeous Feathers and Frost suite and the beautiful images on page 30 of the holiday catalogue.
I have played with it before and I love it and you'll see some of those samples here and here.

For this card I heat embossed the leaf image in white on Crumb cake and used the Call me Clover ink to colour in the leaves, and a white gel pen to colour in the berries. A few layers of coordinating Call Me Clover paper and card and there you have it.
The beautiful little birdie doesn't appear until the inside. I coloured these using the Stampin Blends- super fast!!! (Just what we need at Christmas). For the sentiment I had fun using the Christmas Traditions Punch Box and coordinating punch. You'll find this treasure tucked away on page 2 of the catalogue. It's kind of easy to miss as you head straight in for the major sets but it's very easy to use. And it comes with the Real Red and Call Me Clover Ink spots too. I'll have more samples using this coming up soon.

You can see I snuck in a little branch for him to sit on - easily punched using the sprig punch! I am so loving this punch.
I added a few white mini pearls to the front. 
There's lots to love in this section of the book. What will you make to share with us on our Facebook page?
Next on the hop this week is Judy. Her projects are always so detailed and precise.
and before me this week is the fabulous Julia
Don't forget we love to see what you create using the same inspiration pictures. Upload a picture of your project to our Facebook page.

I 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...

GDP #277 a gorgeous colour combination with Pretty Perennials

The Pretty Perennials Stampset is gorgeous to use on its own but the floral dies really do add a little something special. My card this week matches the colour challenge at the Global Design Project. I have stamped directly onto the Oh so Ombre DSP which is a free Sale A Bration item with a qualifying purchase for the rest of this month. I love the tone on tone stamping for added depth. I have gone over the Happy with Wink of Stella but it's not easy to photograph. The teeny heart is a teeny leftover of some retired Blushing Bride Glimmer paper and I have also incorporated other retired embellishments like the library clip and crystal button - I do love to use them up. Pink and florals - a perfect match. Here's what I used. Product List Pretty Perennials Photopolymer Stamp Set [ 154435 ] $31.00 Pretty Perennials Bundle [ 156234 ] $78.25 Oh So Ombre 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 Cm) Designer Series Paper [ 155225 ] $0.00 Roco...

New In colour 2025-2027 cards and the FABULOUS Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape.

Don't you love it when a single product creates enough elements to decorate a bunch of cards at one time? The Extraordinary Flora Washi tape is one of those products. I created these for my upcoming Catalogue Launch. I put the Washi onto Basic Beige to cut these flowers and love how it coordinates with the Basic Beige card base. To create these cards I trimmed 2.5cm from the front edge and adhered a 3.5cm strip of DSP to the inside of the card to give an added layer. These were easy to put together. Darling Duckling Secret Sea Strawberry Slush Timid Tiger Cloud Clover June 3 - 30 Stampin Up has an amazing offer where you can get 50% off any second product from a suite. So for example if you were to purchase the Extraordinary Flora Die you would be able to buy the tape at 50% off. Please reach out if you want more information on this great deal. You can see all the available suites in my online store. I am loving all the new colours.  I hope you have a creative week and remember,...
