CASE-ing the Catty - Bee Mine Suite
November 12, 2023
Hi there
Welcome to CASE-ing the Catty this week.
If you've come from visiting Rebecca, 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 taking inspiration from a project in the Garden Walk section of the 2023 September-December Mini Catalogue.
I've used the sample above from page 54 of the Mini Catalogue for the inspiration for my card, today.
Yesterday, we had the Stampin' Up! OnStage At Home event to celebrate the 35th Anniversary of the company. We also had our first look at the forthcoming 2024 January-April Mini Catalogue and Sale-a-bration brochure. We watched some great presentations on a selection of the new suites that are coming and got to craft along with the new Bee Mine Suite Collection. I used the opportunity to create today's card with some of the products from the suite. I started with a Pool Party card base and added the pretty floral paper from the Bee Mine Designer Series Paper with a narrow border of the coordinating striped paper that is on the reverse side.
I don't have the Modern Oval Punch, so I used the rounded rectangle from the Nested Essentials Dies to crop the Sweet Sorbet design with the bee trails. I adhered it to another cut from Basic White to make it more robust to pop up over the Pool Party ribbon. The greeting from the Textured Floral stamp set seemed very appropriate, so I stamped it in Sweet Sorbet ink and cropped it with a decorative die from the All That Dies set. The cute bees were fussy cut from another sheet of the designer paper and I popped them up around the greeting. I finished with a Petal Pink heart from the coordinating Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers.
For the inside, I have carried through the same layout as the front with the writing panel trimmed with a narrow border of the striped designer paper and some of the floral paper at the bottom. I added a different fussy cut bee in the top right corner.
