Colour Creations Inst Hop Cherry Cobbler

Hi, 

Our group of Stampin Up Demonstrators and Hobbyists, (Art of With Heart Team), are working through each colour currently available in the catalogues.  This week is No. 15, Cherry Cobbler. 

I CASEd a card from the new September - December 2026 Catalogue on Page 33.  I can see myself CASEing the card often.  I also went to Pinterest for a different colour combination.  Basic Beige, Peaceful Pine and Cherry Cobbler was the chosen combination. I used the new Tile Garden Bundle, which appears in the above catalogue.

I kept looking at this card thinking about where a sentiment could go.  After some discussion with Mum I decided to leave it off the front and put something in the middle.

Have you used Stampin Up products before. One of the reasons that I became a demonstrator/hobbyist was because I love the colour combos.  Stampin Up provides cardstock, ribbon, stamp pad, and matching designer series paper and sometimes matching glitz to enhance the cards.  If you are a 

bit pedantic with colour combinations Stampin Up is your friend. They certainly have my vote.  

The current Annual Catalogue is available on this blog. 

If you live in Australia and you would like to place an order you can receive 10% of on your next order.

If you would like the current brochure, please email me on leanne1982@netspace.net.au.

#CTC289 CASEing The Catty Sunday

Hi everyone, 

Several weeks ago CASEing The Catty Sunday Admin gave the week's challenge which was to case a Halloween project from the August - December Mini Catalogue ©2020 Stampin' Up!®

You can CASE directly or be inspired by a sketch/layout, colour combo or embellishment. 

I chose to CASE the card below. 

Below is my example. 

I created this card using Whisper White and BalmyBlue card stock. I used Free As A Bird Stamp Set with the Tuxedo Black Memento Stamp Pad.  I like less on a card.  I think less can quite often create an elegant card, such as this one.  This already be given to my best friend and her husband,

Snowflake Splendour Suite

Hi everyone,

I spent last weekend playing with Snowflake Splendour Suite.  I had an idea for a card that I could include on CASEing the Catty Sunday, but needed more thought and maybe come criticism.  I eventually phoned my mum on Video Chat, who also makes cards.

So I work on these fun folds.  I used acetate for the window between the two pieces of card stock. These cards show the versatility of the designer series paper and how each card can be so different when swapping the combination of card stock and designer series paper. 

 

 

I created this cards using the designer series paper below and teamed them with Misty Moonlight, Pacific Point, Mint Macaroon, Coastal Cabana and Whisper White Card stock.  I also used Balmy Blue.  There is also some pink glimmer paper, which I thought was current but I cannot find it now.

 

This bundle and designer series paper can be found on page 36, 37, and 38 of the Mini August to December Catalogue ©2020 Stampin' Up!®

CASEing the Catty Sunday #CTC281

Hi everyone,

There is a group on Facebook called CASEing the Catty Sunday.   Every Sunday someone from the group chooses a page or several pages from the current Stampin Up Catalogue to CASE. 

CASEing means that you can copy the card.  You can make a card using the same sketch or placement and change the colours.   You can use the same sketch and change the stamps or dies.  You can use the same colours and use a different sketch.  Really the ways that can be adapted are endless and I am still getting my head around the possibilities. 

This week's challenge is to case the punch bundles from Annual Catalogue page 168-169 ©2020 Stampin' Up!® 

I CASEd the above card.

 

I liked the layout for the card.  So I chose to use the same layout And use different flowers and colours.   Many Layered Blossoms is a new dies that I have not used yet.   I was itching to use it.  I also dies cut The flowers from several sheets of Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper found on page 148 in the Annual Catalogue.  I cut the sentiment out using the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch then I embossed ‘Happy Birthday’ using White Embossing Powder. 

Comment from CASEing the Catty Sunday:

We love Leanne Mitchell's floral card!!  We love how she used die cut flowers instead of stamped       images.  We also love the gorgeous colour combination.  

Congratulations, Leanne!

We would really love to see your creations so don't forget to join in with the current challenge, where we are casing our favourite bundle from the 2020 August - December Mini Catalogue.

CASEing the Catty Sunday #CTC280

 Hi everyone,

This week we were asked to CASE something on the cover of the Mini Catalogue that has just been released. That means that you can copy anything on the front cover.  You can copy any of the cards and put your own twist on the card. For example, your own colours, different stamps, or maybe adding some embossing.  When I surfed the blogs that are part of this challenge, one of them created a card using the whole page as a concept.  That is another concept that I had not thought of.

Below is the card that I have used as an example. 

Below is the card that I created.  I knew what I wanted on the card, namely the green foliage in different colours and several sprigs of yellow (wattle).  I played a little with different designer series paper from the Forever Greenery suite. 

I created this card using Just Jade card base, Whisper White, So Saffron and Pretty Peacock card stock and Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper which can be found in the Annual Catalogue on page 109 ©2020 Stampin' Up!®.  I also used Garden Green, Shaded Spruce and Just Jade stamp pads. There is also some Pretty Peacock embellishments.  The white shape that the foliage is placed on, is part of Tasteful Label Dies which can be found on page 179.

This is Rebecca’s response on following Monday after the entries closed for the week:

We had 6 fabulous entries for our last challenge, casing the cover of the August - December 2020 Mini Catalogue.

We love Leanne Mitchell's wattle card.  We love how she has cased the layout with a completely different stamp set.  And of course, we love the Aussie colour combo!!

Congratulations, Leanne. 

We would really love to see your creations so don't forget to join in with the current challenge, where we are casing the punch bundles on pages 168-169 of the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue.

CASEing the Catty Sunday Challenge #279

Hi everyone,

Every Sunday a new CASEing the Catty is released.  Some one chooses a card in one the current Stampin Up catalogues and people can copy it in some way.  You can change the stamps, or the colours, or the sentiments. However the layout of the card stays the same. 

 

 

This is the card that was chosen to CASE.  It is in the Annual Catalogue on page 72 ©2020 Stampin' Up!®. 

Here is a sketch of the card to be CASEd.   This shows the important part that needs to remain the same on a CASEd card. 

  Here is my example.  I created this card using Beautiful Friendship Stamps Set found on page 115 in the Annual catalogue.  I loved the hydrangeas, they are my go to flower.  I also used the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch and the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.  However I made the dies narrower that normal. I used Tasteful Touches for the sentiment.  I also used Subtle 3D Embossing Folder.

When I finished this, I posted to the Facebook page.  However, I felt that it was still very bland.  So as usually I messaged my mum a photo.  She agreed but it was a bit late.  I had a little of the stamped hydrangea so I played with it. 

The card above is what I came up with.  I think the Soft Sea Foam Designer Series Paper makes all the difference.  However I think this is last years Designer Paper Series.

 

Have you used Stampin Up products before. One of the reasons that I became a hobbyist was because I love the colour combos.  Stampin Up provides cardstock, ribbon, stamp pad, and matching designer series paper and sometimes matching glitz to enhance the cards.  If you are a bit pedantic with colour combinations Stampin Up is your friend.

CASEing the Catty

Hi everyone,

I found time last week to enter CASEing The Catty.   My dad turned 90 last week, hence I needed a card.  

I CASEd the card showing on page 41 of the Occasions Catalogue.  

 

I created the card by using Night of Navy, Crumb Cake Cardstock and Gentleman Designer Paper Series.  I used Large Numbers Framelits, and Banner Triple Punch. The Happy Birthday stamp came from Your Inspiring Stamp Set. I created the Navy Happy Birthday by stamping on  the VersaMark Pad then stamping on Night of Navy Stamp Pad then onto the cardstock. I used the Heating Tool which created the glossy look.

 

I hope you like this card.  I am very happy with the card.   My dad liked it too.
