Hi!
Happy long weekend! I hope you're getting lots of crafting time in. I've been doing a bit of a tidy up and sell off of my retired products now that the new catalogue has begun. I think tomorrow will be a play day for sure!
This week at CASEing The Catty Sunday Challenge, it's the second week of our challenge to CASE the brand new Annual Catalogue. Last week we stuck to the front cover, but this week we can CASE anything! As always, I head to the back of the catalogue and flip forwards looking for inspiration. This card, using the new Stitched Triangles Dies, caught my eye. I love the colour and the geometry of the card.
I cropped two each of three different papers in the In Good Taste DSP pack, and then cut each one in half. They were then layered over Basic Black cardstock. I then cropped around the edges using my largest Stitched Rectangle Die and adhered it to a piece of Very Vanilla cropped using the same die.
The sentiment was stamped using the Itty Bitty Birthdays set, and cropped using the Stitched Rectangle die that doesn't layer with any others. I'm pretty sure the same die was used to crop the sentiment on the original card.
I cropped a second Stitched Rectangle shape from Very Vanilla for the inside. I don't usually cut my card bases to US size, but I did this time to suit the Stitched Rectangles. It's much more pleasing to have an even border right around the edges!
That's all from me for this challenge, but you still have a week to get your entry in. You just need to be a part of our Facebook group, where you can upload your photo with a description of which project you've CASEd. Easy!
Before you go, please do finish the hop, there's lots of fabulous inspiration for you! Next up is my very good friend, Judy, with what I'm sure will be another stunning card!
Bye for now,
Tina

I don't (yet) have the Stitched Triangle Dies, so I had to look for a different shape to use, one that would tessellate nicely. The Tailored Tag punch was perfect!

A brilliant masculine card Tina. May I CASE? It's totally fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Go for it!
DeleteOh wow! I absolutely love this! Great idea to cut the tailored tag punched shapes in half and the DSP choice is just perfect. Great masculine card, or for anyone really.
ReplyDeleteWow - this looks so cool! I can’t wait to get some of this paper!
ReplyDeleteI love the tones and textures of your shapes and papers better than the original - so elegant and a perfect masculine card too! Awesome.
ReplyDeleteStunning Tina!! So much to love. Perfect choice of patterns and the stitching frames it well. I also have my eye on the triangle dies.
ReplyDeleteSoooo clever, Tina! I just love how this looks with this paper but it's a great design idea for other papers and colours, too. Also, tessellate is such an awesome word.
