Welcome to another week at CASEing the Catty, this week we are re-visiting the Christmas section of the Annual Catalogue. I just love Christmas, and have just held my Christmas in July class so I am feeling very very Christmassy right now.
I took my inspiration from the image above, the cute gift box with the wreath.
Instead of a box, I used the inspiration image to create this card. I used layers of the biggest "swirl" from Swirly Birds Thinlets to create the wreath and give it more dimension and depth. The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Sentiments, I learned this weekend that the Thoughtful Banners stamp set has a little border for the new Classic Label which works perfectly with Teeny Tiny Sentiments and gives them a lovely finish.
Time for you to join in the fun, by taking inspiration from the Christmas section of the catalogue and uploading a picture of your creation to the above link to our monthly challenge page.

Oh my goodness. I didn't even see this gift box. I love what you have done there in creating a card using non Christmas stamp sets! The paper is gorgeous too.
ReplyDeleteI love your wreath Monique, have thought that would be a great use for the swirl Thinlits so it's nice to see it put together. Neat trick with combining the two stamp sets. Teeny Tiny Sentiments is still a fave! Thanks for the inspiration
ReplyDeleteLove the opportunities that CASE-ing gives to highlight these un-noticed background delights. Thebox translated beautifully into your card, Monique.
ReplyDeleteOooh, I love the way you've created your wreath. Very clever!
ReplyDeleteGee Monique I didn't even notice that box! I love your card, and my all time favourite thing is wreaths! I especially love yours and how you have used the Swirly Bird dies, must case your case lol!
ReplyDeleteStunning card Monique. I had overlooked this DSP, but I think I'm going to have to get some for Christmas classes! Kelly x
ReplyDeleteLovely Christmas wreath Monique! Very clever. The two colours give the wreath a wonderful sense of depth.
ReplyDeleteGreat card, love the idea of using the Swirly Bird die as a wreath.
