CASE-ing the Catty - Floral Impressions Slimline
May 11, 2025
Hi there
Welcome to CASE-ing the Catty for this week.
If you've come from visiting Andrea, then welcome! If you're visiting me, I appreciate you stopping by today! You can continue your journey to see the other inspiring creations from the CTC Crew by clicking on the button at the bottom of the post.
This week we are CASE-ing any project from the 2025- 2025 Annual Catalogue. This is always fun, but there are so many amazing projects to choose from. If you do not already have a Demonstrator (in Australia) and would like your own complimentary hard copy of the catalogue, then fill in your details on the Request Catalogues page (click on the link) on my blog.
I chose the project in the photo above from page 41 of the Annual Catalogue. I like slimline cards for something a little different and this layout is a great way to display pretty paper.
I've stayed close to the layout this week, but I've added in a mat for the beautiful Floral Impressions paper that I used for the strips. In fact, I used the sheet that has the flowers in vertical columns, so I cut a 3" strip across the design and then cut the flowers into strips, making little adjustments to get the section of the design I wanted. I added the strips to the Basic White mat and then adhered the panel to the Cloud Cover slimline card base.
I stamped the greeting from the Mixed Labels stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink and cropped it with the largest of the banner dies in the Stylish Shapes Dies. I wanted the embellishment to pop, but not compete with the floral background, so I cropped the pierced circle from Cloud Cover card stock and added the Queen Anne's Lace die cut cropped from Basic White. The die is from the Beautiful Motifs Dies, which has 3 large background foliage designs and some Victorian style motifs. I have layered up 3 of the die cut Queen Anne's Lace pieces to create a lovely dimensional effect. Both the greeting and embellishment were popped up at different heights. I finished with 3 tiny flowers cropped from Strawberry Slush card stock using a die from the Impressions Abloom Dies and I added a tiny rhinestone to the centres.
I hope you will try this layout with your left over strips of patterned paper.
