Welcome to another week at CASEing the Catty Sunday Blog Hop, where utilse the projects within the current Stampin' Up! catalogue to inspire our own projects each week. We also invite you to join with us in the challenge each week by using this inspiration in your own creations and uploading a photo to our Facebook page.
This week we are taking our inspiration from the layouts of the projects on page 151 of the annual catalogue.
I was inspired by this image, I liked the simplicity of the card and wanted to do something a little different.
For my card I made my own background paper using the compass from Com Sail Away and white craft ink, dragging the ink across the cardstock to give a similar look to the original. I just love the seaweed from the coordinating dies and cut some in both Sahara Sand and Night of Navy. The darker one wasn't showing up very well so having seen my friend Cathy's addition of dots on the seaweed, I was inspired to do the same. I love the texture that this gives, and it does help it to stand out from the background.
I hope you are inspired to join in the challenge this week, just use the samples on page 151 to inspire your creativity, then post a picture of your project to the CTC Facebook page.
Happy Stamping
Monique
