Stampin' Up! Australia - A Happy Thing - Sale-A-Bration - CASE-ing the Catty #20

Hi

Welcome to this week's CASE-ing the Catty!

 

Today the challenge is all about CASE-ing from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue and to use Blendabilities and Framelits. 

CASE stands for Copy and Share Everything.  This whole challenge blog is about using the current Stampin' Up! Catalogues to help you create.  Sometimes crafters need a springboard to just get started and the catalogues are certainly a demonstrator or customer's best resource.

So check out the Blendabilities and Framelits in the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue and find a project that you would like to try.  

There are lots of ideas but here's a few to help you get started -

• CASE a sketch or layout
• Try a colour combo 
• CASE an embellishment and use it on your own project

Most importantly, have FUN!

Guidelines -

• Create a new project for the current challenge.
• Mention CTC Challenges in your blog post and link back here so others can join in on the fun.  Please ensure that you link up your blog post, not your whole blog.
• Mostly SUO (Stampin' Up! ® Only) products (retired or current) to be used in your projects for CTC Challenges.
• Have fun and inspire others!

I was inspired by the image from page 18 of the Sale-A-Bration catalogue, and also by the sketch at The Paper Players. Less is More also have the theme of 'Wings' this week so that was a good reason to use the beautiful bird from A Happy Thing.

My bird is actually an Eastern Yellow Robin which is a bird indigenous to Australia along the eastern coast where I live. Isn't he delightful!!?

Stampin' Up! Australia - The Artful Stampers Blog Hop #21

Hi

Welcome to this week's Artful Stampers Blog Hop!

I seriously lost my creative mojo this weekend (I blame the low pressure system/Cyclone Marcia), so the best I could come up with was this card:

It's actually not as bad as I thought it would be....on reflection, it has a modern, masculine feel to it. I absolutely LOVE the Adventure Bound Designer Series Paper Stack - such great patterns for bold cards for men. I also broke out the Bow Builder Punch which has been woefully neglected on my table for a few weeks. You can create a cute bow like this in about 5 seconds. All you need are some Glue Dots, a piece of patterned paper and the Bow Builder Punch. #adorable 

Here were our colours:

Here was my sketch (Freshly Made Sketches):

Here was my theme (Seize the Birthday):

I hope you like my card. If you have been inspired by it and would like to support my creative business, all the supplies may be found by clicking through the links below which will take you to my store.

Stampin' Up! Australia - Color Coach Card #90 - Stampin' Up! Blendabilities

Old Olive #2

#ColorCoachJourney 

Hi

I was excited to see on the Color Coach card for Old Olive that all three colours....Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, and Pumpkin Pie, have Blendabilities! I immediately started to think about which stamp sets would look beautiful with these colours and the exclusive Hostess Set I Like You sprang to mind! It is so pretty. 

I was inspired by the sketch at Pals Paper Arts this week as the circles were the perfect platforms for my little flower images. 

I hope you like my card.  If you have been inspired by it and would like to support my creative business, all the supplies may be found by clicking through the links below which will take you to my store.
