CTC#223 Classic Garage goes feminine

Welcome back for another week CASEing the Catty. This is a very exciting week for demonstrators as its almost ONstage (which is bigger than Christmas to a 5 year old in my book). The big event is in Auckland and I'm so fortunate to be going along and joining lots of other amazing demonstrators to share ideas and techniques and laughter. I'll have some amazing news and info about the coming catalogue to share after the event.....


But on to this week's card. The Classic Garage suite has been hugely popular because there are relatively few sets that lend themselves so well to Masculine cards. But this set is packed with very flexible images and great colours.
The Paper, stampset and embellishments in this set are all amazing. But would you believe I have still gone with a feminine twist on this set?



The gorgeous classic cars are very easy to fussy cut and you get a lot of cars from one sheet of paper. I did make a few masculine cards but was really happy with how this matched some feminine paper. The cute little key just sets it off.



I always like to decorate the inside with some of the leftover strips of DSP just to finish it off.

Next on the hop this week is the beautiful, and beautifully talented Julia

Don't forget we love to see what you create using the pages for this suite as inspiration. Take a photo of your project and share it with us all on our Facebook page.


I'm off to enjoy the kiwi hospitality - and maybe some wine from the Napier region!!! 

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

cheers, Liz

    Liz, I love the feminine twist on your cards and the key embellishments are just too cute.

    These are so different to everything else I've seen made with this suite and I love that. You've softened them but certainly not lost any of the cool factor.

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,...

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.

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...
