CTC 327: Holiday Section

 Hi!


Welcome back to this new CASEing The Catty Sunday Challenge Blog Hop. We are celebrating our seventh anniversary this evening. How exciting! I've been part of the team for around two and a half years, and have enjoyed every moment.


This week for our challenge, we are asking you to CASE  a card from the Holiday Section of the Annual Catalogue. Have you started making Christmas cards yet? I've been making them for around a month now, with the hope that I won't have to madly rush to get enough made in December.


I chose this card from page 95, as the simple design really appealed to me and I liked how the branch hung over the sides of the main panel.

I started by rotating the orientation of the card. The main panel stretched to become the long, thin strip that the sentiment sit on, and the polar bear still overhangs each side of the panel. Sort of the same, but also very different!

The DSP I have used is a cute new Sale-A-Bration option, called Penguin Playmates. You can earn it free in August and September with a $90 catalogue spend. To jazz up the images a little, I coloured the polar bear's scarf and nose with Wink Of Stella. Some trees in the background DSP also got the same treatment. It's an overcast day here, so no sun to help capture the sparkle in a photo - you'll just have to imagine!

The sentiments I've used are from a stamp set in the new Mini Catalogue, called Christmas To Remember. It's a lovely sentiment only set that I'm sure I will use a lot. The tree is fussy cut from the Penguin Playmates DSP.

That's all from me tonight, but your part in our seventh anniversary challenge is just beginning! Choose a card to CASE from the Holiday Section, and after you've made it, just upload a photo to our Facebook group. Easy!


Please do continue on with our blog hop before you dash off to get inky. Next up is my lovely friend, Rachel.


Bye for now,

Tina

  5. I like the way the DSP is subtle enough not to detract from the main character. Snap on the inspiration :)
