CASE-ing the Catty - Layers of Beauty Bundle
June 09, 2024
Hi there
Welcome to CASE-ing the Catty for 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 the Bundles on pages 57 - 73 of the 2024-25 Annual Catalogue.
The Layers of Beauty Bundle captured me from the time I saw it at OnStage in March. I love roses and the masks that are included in the bundle make it so easy to look amazing at colouring without much effort! The sample above is very lush with two full images displayed on the card and the outline has been heat embossed in white.
I've gone in the other direction with my card. I've stamped the floral image in Basic Gray as it isn't as bold as Memento Tuxedo Black and used Highland Heather to create the 3 layers of shading. The smaller flowers are coloured with Lemon Lolly and Pumpkin Pie for the centre and the leaves are Granny Apple Green. You can of course use different colours together, but I think a single colour gives a very natural, elegant look.
After cropping the image with the coordinating die, I cut it into 2 pieces and placed them against the top and bottom edge of a Basic White panel that I dry embossed with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. I added the panel to a Highland Heather Mat with a narrow border and wrapped the Silver & White Sheer Ribbon around the panel and finished with a bow on the left. The finished panel was popped up with Dimensionals on a Thick Basic White card base. The greeting from the Layering Leaves Stamp set was heat embossed in white and cropped with a circle die from the Spotlight on Nature Dies and popped up over the ribbon. I finished with a little Silver Glimmer heart cropped with the retired Well Written Dies and a trio of Purple Shimmer Gems.
For the inside, I have a Highland Heather mat for the writing panel and I partially stamped the large rose in the corner and coloured it with the masks.
