CTC #340 - CASE A Bundle

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 our inspiration from the Bundles on pages 65 to 71 of the Holiday Mini Catalogue. 

 

I was inspired by this image from page 65, I really like this DSP so this card caught my eye, but so did the image above it from the Frosted Gingerbread Bundle so I decided to combine the two and use Gingerbread & Peppermint products to create a card using this sketch. 

I thought the little peppermint lollies in the DSP were perfect to add to the sentiment layered over DSP, I did use as the background a piece from the returning favourite, Heartwarming Hugs DSP.  I can almost taste the peppermint looking at this cute card, and it was simple and easy to create, just perfect for a Christmas Card.

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 Julia has created this week.

CTC #339 - CASE Painted Christmas Suite

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 our inspiration from the Painted Christmas Suite from the Holiday Catalogue, pages 16 to 23.

 

I was inspired by this image from page 19, these little bags were part of my first order and I haven't used them enough so wanted to re-create this project.

I kept to the general layout but used different elements to create my version. I used papers from the Tidings of Christmas DSP from the Annual Catalogue, have I mentioned how much I love these? The sentiment is from Merriest Moments, and I added some gold elements from Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack. I absolutely love organza ribbon and so couldn't help adding some Evening Evergreen 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon from the Annual Catalogue. 

As well as being a great layout for the front of a card, this little bag would be cute to gift some home made treats or even with an insert to give a gift card.

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.

CTC #338 - CASE The Sketch on Page 34

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 our inspiration from the card on page 34 of the Mini Catalogue.

 

Here it is broken down to its simplest form.

I am loving the Tidings of Christmas Suite in the Annual Catalogue, pages 88 and 89. The DSP has a Nordic feel to the sheets and as soon as I saw the images in the stamp set I fell in love with them. This was the first thing on my wish list from this catalogue.  This is one of my favourite sheets of DSP from the pack, and for this challenge I have paired it with a sentiment from the Merriest Moments bundle cut with one of the Tasteful Label's dies. The addition of some Champaign Basic Jewels adds just a pop of sparkle. 

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.
