CTC#224 Favourite Occasions Bigshot Project - it's gotta be lace!

Kia Ora- a friendly hello from NZ!
How amazing to have been part of Onstage for 2019. Weary and heading home now but so grateful for the experiences of this week.
I did still get a project made before I left so just happy to pop it in here. Be sure and check all the other projects in the hop.



 
Believe it or not, my favourite project is almost the same as the inspo picture- but I hadn't even looked at that photo before I started playing with these amazing Doily framelits.  I had a wonderful afternoon playing and this is one of the projects that just happened! The large doily cuts out the lace holes but does not cut the perimeter of the doily shape - you need the extra thinlit in the set to do this outline piece for you. So you are then able to create an amazing effect of lace which shows up so well with a contrast piece behind it.
I have teamed Gray Granite with Lovely Lipstick and Mint Macaron for this project. The inside is fairly simple, the font is just gorgeous.

So while I had the framelits out I made a few other samples. It really is a beautiful set of thinlits to use.


One of the thinlits cuts a beautiful lacy ring- you could use this for a wreath at Christmas I think. I did stencil the crumb cake base using white craft ink for these last 2 samples.




Next on the hop this week is Lauren

Don't forget we love to see what you create , pop your creations up on our Facebook page.



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

cheers, Liz

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...
