CTC #483 CASE the Colours of To Market DSP





CASE-ing The Catty Crew are a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from Australia & New Zealand who take inspiration weekly from the catalogues. The catalogues are a fantastic resource, and we love to inspire you to seek inspiration there too. 


It seemed a good idea to use this sketch for this week's colour challenge at CASE-ing the Catty because it has a number of parts to bring in the many colours in the To Market DSP. I managed to use each one: - Blackberry Bliss, Garden Green, Pecan Pie, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red.





Frosted Forest was the most recent bundle to arrive in my craft room, so it proved to be the perfect candidate. After stamping the tall tree, I used the masks and a blending brush to layer on the colours. Pecan Pie and Garden Green made their appearance here.



The natural, woody papers in Country Woods DSP really suit nature-inspired subjects like trees so I used two here. A Blackberry Bliss card base is a strong contrast with the Pumpkin Pie zig zag strip. It just left Real Red, so I dyed some white twine with a Real Red Stampin' Blend.


The bundle is an online exclusive, which mainly means you won't find it in a catalogue. It can be ordered through a demonstrator, and I am happy to help with that over the phone or click on the shopping link below to place your order.


Now it's your turn. We do request that the projects you submit have been created especially for this challenge. You can CASE directly or be inspired by a sketch/layout, colour combo or embellishment. Ask to join our Facebook group, and then add a picture of your CASE.


Next along the hop is my good friend, the talented Kathryn Mangelsdorf.



I have been an active Stampin' Up! demonstrator for 14 years, and thanks to my wonderful team, I am at Silver Elite level. One of the joys of crafting is sharing it with others, so I hold monthly classes both in my home and in the community. Do get in touch if you have questions about classes or Stampin' Up! products.



Craft & Chat Class Schedule to end of 2024

Classes are held in my craft room in South Morang, VIC. 2½ hours, $25, 3 cards & envelopes. You get to try out product, equipment and learn new techniques with guidance from me. Team members craft for free.

There is nothing nicer than meeting new friends and crafting together.
