Mother's Day Blog Hop for CASEing the Catty

http://caseingthecatty.blogspot.com/2016/04/ctc75-mothers-day.html 

It's good to be back in the blog hop at CASEing the Catty this week!  It's been awhile since I've joined in and I'm really pleased that I had a bit of time to craft this week and to share the card that I have made for my mum for Mother's Day.  It's a Teacup Easel Card with an 'orchid'.

Inspiration came from page 34 of the Occasion's Catalogue - 

 

CTC 75 and #tgifc52 - Mother's Day


This card is constructed in a similar way to the one I designed in 2012.  You can view the detailed tutorial HERE and then follow the mini photo tutorial below to see how I adapted it for Stampin' Up! products and accessories only.

This SU Bundle is on the retiring list so get in quick before it's sells out!

I'm also linking up my card to TGIF Challenges as their theme is Mother's Day -

Just Add Colour with a Mini Photo Wallet

Photo Wallet and Butterfly Easel Card The Colour Combo for Just Add Ink's 57th Challenge Butterfly Easel Card I designed a butterfly easel card for my latest project at UStamp with Dawn and Friends using the Punch Bunch Stamp Set . For this challenge I popped the little butterfly from the Bliss Set , added some pearls and stamped the gorgeous flourish from the same SAB stamp set to form the background pattern for both die cut butterflies. I also sponged around the edges with River Rock Ink. PS: Thanks again to Nancy Riley for choosing this card as one of her iPicks for this week! Inside the Photo Wallet This would make a Lovely Hostess Gift (especially for a scrap-booking enthusiast) Complete with Photo Mats Instructions for the Photo Wallet can be found HERE .

Spring Planter Box Card

Hi there and welcome to addINKtive designs.  Today I have a Planter Box Card to share with you.  After a bit of a craft 'slump' three challenges finally got me motivated and back into my craft room ... so a big thank you to all the DT members for their inspiration. This card is similar to the one that I made for mum for Mother's Day but I changed the measurements slightly so it's a little shorter and have included a mini tutorial at the end of this post if you would like to make one too. 1.  Colour Challenge - Global Design Project #005   The colour challenge at the Global Design Project is just perfect for spring and I really, really love the combo!  I have included some Kraft Card Stock as a neutral for the construction of the planter box.  2.  SUO Challenge - #132 Punch It Up     The second challenge that I have entered is at SU Only where the theme is to feature PUNCHES.  Here's my list of Stampin' Up! punc...

Hi there and welcome to add INK tive designs.   I'm first on the hop for our Friday night CASE-ing the Catty Blog Hop.  We are a group of Stampin' Up! ® Demonstrators who love to use the SU Catalogues for inspiration. This week we are looking at the Mother's Day  section in the Occasions Catalogue - pages 36 and 37. When this post goes live, eight of the CTC Crew will be catching up at an after party on the Gold Coast , at the last Stampin' Up! ®  South Pacific Convention as we know it.  I'm sure I will have some pics to share in another post, so stay tuned. A Planter Box Card for Mum I really, really love my mum because this card took a whole morning to make.  I combined the instructions from two demonstrators, Linda Bauwin and Rebecca Hopper , on Stampin' Connection ,   to make my Planter Box Card. Here's what inspired me on pages 36 and 37 of the Occasions Catty - The Colour Palette from the Pain...
