Hello and welcome to another week at CASEing the Catty. Today has been very exciting for me because this morning I completed my Role Specific Training for the Comm Games Volunteer Program. I’m volunteering at the Shooting (which is in Brisbane). I’m a Field of Play Team Member. I’m very lucky to be able to help out in the sport that I love. For those that don’t know me, I’ve been shooting for approx 15 years. In that time I’ve represented Queensland at State and National levels and I’ve also competed Internationally in NZ and Canada. Do you think I could have two hobbies that are more opposite? Card making and shooting, a perfect match.
This week at CASEing the Catty we are CASEing the Painted With Love section, pages 18-21. If you’ve come from Rebecca’s blog, thanks for continuing on with me.
I’ve chosen to CASE the card in the bottom left hand corner of the above image.
I made this card for my partner, Nik, for Valentine’s Day. He doesn’t believe in Valentine’s Day and he always says “why should there be a special day for love when I love you every day”, so I thought this sentiment was perfect.
The card base is Basic Black with a layer of Whisper White then I’ve added some Gold Foil Acetate. The biggest heart is die cut from Pick a Pattern DSP.
I’ve heat embossed the sentiment from Sure Do Love You in Gold. The gold heart has been embossed with the Petal Pair embossing folder. I’ve also added a Gold Mini Sequin bow behind the sentiment.
Next on the hop is Sandra. You’re going to love her creation this week.
Why not join in on the weekly Challenge? We’d love to see what you create.
Thanks for stopping by.
So stylish & elegant Peta. Great card! Kelly x
I like that acetate background, really lifts the card another notch.
