CTC #553 - CASE The January Online Exclusives

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 inspiration from images from the On-Line Exclusives. This is a great opportunity to check out some of these products and what the Stampin' Up! design team have created with them.

I was inspired by this card from the Lovely Arrangements Bundle, I liked the overall layout of the design, but was also taken with the use of the die cutting on the front panel. I don't often think of using die cuts in this way and wanted to have a go at my own version.

I kept with the layout and floral theme, but changed up the DSP, colours and the choice of cut out die/Here is my card. I used Nature's Symphony dies to cut the background and love how the Lost Lagoon peeks through the Pretty Peacock panel. These dies coordinate with the Nature Walk DSP so I chose one of the patterns from this pack as the basis of the colour scheme for my card, adding some of the gorgeous floral images from Beautifully Adorned Ephemera Pack. Given these lovely botanical images I had to add embellishments from the Flower Accents to match the gold.

  

I hope you are inspired to join in the challenge this week, just use any of the project samples in the on-line store for the on-line exclusives (you can find a link on my side bar) to inspire your creativity, then post a picture of your project to the CTC Facebook page.

  

Time to hop on over and see what the talented Julia has created this week.

Happy Stamping
