Many Happy Tomorrows CTC#242


Welcome back to another week of CASE-ing The Catty. The crew is made up of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all parts of Australia and New Zealand.You are at the blog of Rachel Palmieri, Independent Stampin' Up!® demonstrator. I run classes at my home studio in South Morang, Victoria, share Stampin' Up!® products and tools at parties for my customers, coach my lovely team and create cards and the occasional 3D project. This week we are CASE-ing Woven Threads colours, and layouts from pages 12-14.



Last week I covered a notebook using this paper, but still decided it was the perfect way to go again for this challenge. After all, what easier way to use the colours of Woven Threads DSP, than by using the paper? The inspiration for both my card and box originated from 3 of these boxes, each wrapped in a different strip of DSP, stacked and tied with a variety of ribbons and trims. 


Still channelling the patchworker within, we have strips on the card, repeated (not quite the same order) on the box. I haven't been as lavish with the various ribbons, but the mini Braided Linen Trim suits the washed-out hues of Woven Threads DSP.



Colorful Seasons stamps & Seasonal Layers dies were still on my table from my mid-week project for Colour INKspirations so I used flowers and a large sentiment from this combo, along with a label and sentiment from Parcels & Petals for the box.



Seaside Spray may be a little too light to use as an ink for stamping sentiments perhaps. More braided linen trim made it onto the inside of the card above a strip of DSP.



Now you are heading to my friend (and sometime travel-buddy) Tina in South Australia. Her card in a single colour is a beauty!


We would love you to CASE from pages 12-14 and share it here on our Facebook page,

Ferdinand's In Love CTC#240


Welcome back to another week of CASE-ing The Catty. The crew is made up of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all parts of Australia and New Zealand.You are at the blog of Rachel Palmieri, Independent Stampin' Up!® demonstrator. I run classes at my home studio in South Morang, Victoria, share Stampin' Up!® products and tools at parties for my customers, coach my lovely team and create cards and the occasional 3D project. This week we are looking for inspiration in Everyday Occasions, which takes in pages 12-71. There's bound to be a huge variety of projects shared from this enormous section.



I've CASE-d the card top left, from page 32.
Over The Moon called me again! I started with another sketch and stamp set, but in the end reverted to this favourite.The composition of the artwork is almost the same but the colourway has been changed up, along with the orientation.



The sentiment from the Parcels & Petals stamp set, back on page 27 struck me as being very appropriate for this little scene. The heart is diecut before stamping with the sentiment, and finally diecutting it all with a Rectangle Stitched Shape.



Seaside Spray is such a pretty, soft blue which I've used generously - on the piece behind, corrugated with the embossing folder of the same name, right through to Ferdinand's gumboots. Even the tips of the daisy he's holding have been coloured with Seaside Spray.




My grandson Oliver spent last Friday with me, and he also used the same stamps to create some cards. I think he did a pretty good job for a 5 year old.


Following me is the fabulous Judy May, who will have an-extra-special project to share.



Please join us by CASE-ing pages 12-71, and sharing here on our Facebook page.

Bloom & Grow FMS#392 PP#445



Today I noticed some challenges which seemed to 'call' to me, and instead of getting on with my chores, I snuck off to my craft room! There is nothing like a bit of crafting in a sun-filled studio (it's winter in Australia, so sunshine is a bonus) to start the day off right.


Bloom & Grow is a favourite of mine, lovely clear images, so easy to colour with Stampin' Blends. There wasn't an ideal sentiment in that set for this particular card, so I picked a stamp I received this week, Parcels & Petals and used this sweet sentiment.



This sketch from Freshly Made Sketches provided a perfect layout, and the colour palette from The Paper Players challenge suited the flower image. You can join their challenges too or just check them out, by clicking the links.





Have a happy crafty day!
