CASE-ing the Catty - More Wishes
November 19, 2023
Hi there
Welcome to CASE-ing the Catty this week.
If you've come from visiting Michelle, 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 Punch project from the 2023 September-December Mini Catalogue.
I made it all the way to the Bundle Index on page 72 to find the project above for my inspiration. It uses the Sparkling Snowflakes Tag Topper Punch to create the greeting label.
I'm still on a quest to use up my holiday papers, so I pulled out the sheet with the presents design from the Beary Christmas DSP for my all-over background. I added the panel to a Very Vanilla Thick card base with a narrow border to provide a little contrast to the busy design.
I've created a banner for my greeting with the MERRY from the More Wishes stamp set stamped 3 times in Real Red, Old Olive and Balmy Blue using the hinged stamping technique on the Stamparatus to get a perfect line up. I tied the bow around the top and popped up the banner on the card and then popped up the fussy cut 'christmas' over the top.
For the inside, I have a Balmy Blue mat with a strip of the presents paper at the bottom and the writing panel above. I also fussy cut the tree from the edge of another sheet of the Beary Christmas DSP. I had an 'oops' moment when I realised I had put a white writing panel instead of Very Vanilla, but I don't think matters; I quite like the contrast.
I'm very happy to have another two Christmas cards in my stash! This is a simple layout that is perfect for mass producing and using busy background paper. Just pick the colours from the paper and get stamping!
