CTC #346 - CASE A Card & Give it a Christmas Twist

Welcome to another week at CASEing the Catty Sunday Blog Hop, where utilise 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 any of the card projects and giving them a Christmas twist, this gives a wide range of options and I am excited to see what everyone creates. 

 

I was inspired by this image from page 18 showcasing the Days to Remember stamp set. I bought this some time ago but am a little embarrassed to say that until this project it hadn't seen ink!  

This stamp set has a clever stamp that has been designed so that you can choose seven columns of numbers it will equal the dates of any month. Not only that but it was designed so that seven columns is the exact width of one of our stamp pads!

I kept to the same general layout as the original but chose December for my month and highlighted the 25th of course.  Adding die cuts from the Frosted Gingerbread Bundle as the embellishing features.  The sentiment is from a retired stamp set, but it was the best one I had to fit the space.  Some added rhinestones and copper twine from my stash finish off the project and give it a bit of sparkle.  This is a great layout to use for someone's birthday, mother's day, father's day or anniversary.

I hope you are inspired to join in the challenge this week, just use any of the samples in the new Annual Catalogue to inspire your creativity, then post a picture of your project to the CTC Facebook page.

    

Time to hop on over and see what Tina has created this week.

Happy Stamping
