Hello and welcome to my blog. This week we have a Sketch Challenge at CASEing The Catty. We’re using the sketch of the balloon card on page 18 of the Annual Catalogue. You may have hopped over from Rebecca’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of the post.

I needed to make a birthday card for my partner who has a significant birthday coming up next week so I’ve used this sketch challenge to make his birthday card.

My card base is Basic Gray follow by a layer of Earthen Elegance DSP. I think the pattern on this DSP works perfectly with the motorbike. I’ve added some texture to the Basic White layer with the Metal Plate 3D embossing folder. The motorbike is die cut using the Legendary Ride Dies, I’ve used Basic Black, Basic Gray and two different shades of metallic silver from the Silver Foil Specialty Pack.

The sentiment is from the Charming Sentiments stamp set and is die cut with the co-ordinating Sentiment Silhouettes dies. I’ve also added some retired Adhesive Backed Studs.

Mr Marvi was outside in the morning sun so I took a quick picture. He’s really been feeling the cold here lately and has been very snuggly. We’re not used to overnight temperatures of 5, 6, and 7 degrees here in Queensland. Brrrrrr

Hello and welcome to my blog. We’re CASEing from the Love, Thanks & Support section of the Annual Catalogue, pages 62-77. You may have hopped over from Rebecca’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of the post.

I’ve chosen to CASE the card in the top right hand corner of page 73 using the Elegant Border Dies, which are an Online Exclusive product purchase.

I’ve kept very similar to the sample card layout however I’ve changed the colours.

My card base is Misty Moonlight followed by a layer of Delightfully Eclectic DSP. I’ve die cut the Elegant Borders using Lemon Lolly cardstock. The leaf is stamped in Bubble Bath ink on Basic White cardstock.

The sentiment is from the Charming Sentiment stamp set and is stamped in Misty Moonlight. I’ve actually used the tall pot die from Earthen Textures Dies to die cut the sentiment. To finish off my card I’ve added some Misty Moonlight 3/8″ Inner Braid Ribbon and a few sequins.

This is what Marvi thought of my card this week. I had just woken him up from a nap so that could also be why he’s yawning.

I’ve CASEd the card in the top right hand corner of the above graphic.

My card base is Pebbled Path follow by a layer of Earthen Elegance DSP which has a lovely ombre Pretty Peacock pattern. I’ve used the Sending Smiles stamp set and matching dies for the flowers and flower stems, using Pebbled Path, Lemon Lolly and Boho Blue ink.

The sentiment is from the Go To Greetings stamp set and is stamped in Boho Blue. I’ve added some retired For Everything Fancy Sequins for a touch of bling.

Marvi was on hand for a quick photo. Some weeks it takes a while to get a good photo of him but this week we did it in one take lol. I’m taking that as a sign he likes my card.
