CASE-ing the Catty - Mini Catalogue
August 15, 2021
Hi there
Welcome back to another week of CASE-ing the Catty!
If you've come from visiting Peta & Marvi, 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 buttons at the bottom of the post.
The 2021 July - December Mini Catalogue is now LIVE and you can earn fabulous FREE products with a qualifying ($90AUD order) during Sale-a-bration (3 August - 30 September 2021). This week the Crew is taking inspiration from the Mini Catalogue.
I've chosen the card above for my inspiration, which uses the Words of Cheer Bundle on page 20 of the catalogue. I've added some extra layers and detail to my card.
I started with a Shaded Spruce 13cm (5 1/8") square card base and added a layer of the striped design from the Tidings of Christmas DSP pack. For the focus panel, I have a square of Whisper White and I heat embossed the greeting from Words of Cheer in gold first and then dry embossed it with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing folder. Before adding it to the Shaded Spruce mat, I wrapped some retired gold trim twice around the panel and finished with a bow.
I stamped the floral image from Words of Cheer in Evening Evergreen ink and coloured it with Stampin' Blends before cropping with the coordinating die from the Christmas Cheer Dies. I popped it on the centre panel and added the swirls from the Stitched Stars Dies and some extra pieces of foliage from the Christmas Cheer Dies. I finished with Gold Glitter Enamel Dots in the centre of the flowers. I love these because they add sparkle but are fairly flat.
For the inside, I cut a square writing panel with the Stitched Rectangles Dies, cutting twice to get the square. I partially stamped the floral image in the corner and coloured it with Stampin' Blends.

Your card is so elegant, Judy! I've just received this stamp set, and now I can't wait to play with it.

Your extras really do the trick with this card, it's lovely. The border in particular, frames it beautifully.
