Hi!
It's the end of the weekend - boo - so it's the for the new CASEing The Catty blog hop - yay! The blog before mine was the lovely Lauren and I'm the last stop if you started at the beginning. If not, just keep hopping - the link to the next blog will be at the end of the post.
This week we are back to CASEing the Sale-A-Bration catalogues. You can choose something from either of the two brochures. This week my eye was caught by the Christmas card in the second release brochure. Did you notice it?
The Painted Seasons suite covers all the seasons, and the concept artist has made a Christmas card for winter. Which is weird for Australia, but let's not let a little weird stop us!
I sort of reversed the card, by cropping a piece of Poppy Parade cardstock using the Rectangle Stitched Thinlits. I then popped it up over the top of a piece of the winter DSP and adhered the whole lot to my Poppy Parade base.
Keeping with the stitched theme, I cropped a circle and a long, skinny rectangle for the sentiment. The pine cones were stamped using the Painted Seasons stamp set - one in Soft Suede, the other in Crumb Cake.
This was then repeated for the inside of the card. Yay, one more Christmas card to add to the stash!
That's it from me. Don't forget our Facebook group, where you can add your card for the week's challenge. Just click on the image below.
First though, if you have't finished the hop, jump on over to see what the lovely Michelle has made this week.
Bye for now,
Tina
Love your card. These pine cones are just gorgeous. And all the stitched details look awesome together.
ReplyDeleteFabulous Christmas card, Tina. The Poppy Parade is pretty eye-popping, lol! Love the inside, too.
ReplyDeleteI love this card!! I'm going to start casing this for my Christmas cards!!
ReplyDeleteLove this, Tina. The red frame really makes it pop. I don't think that DSP pattern is too winter-y for an Aussie Christmas card, especially paired with the bright red. I especially love how much attention you've given the inside of the card. A great way to use up those little leftover strips of paper.
ReplyDeleteLovely card Tina, I hadn't noticed it was actually a Christmas card. I love how you've "reversed" the card and I love the detail on the inside too.
