Always In My HeartCASE the Catalogue

You Are Always in My Heart (Always In My Heart)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, I feel like it has been such a long time since my last post.  So much as happened!  We moved into our place but there is still SO much to do!  Due to my back injury, my poor partner is doing the lions share.  We are slowly setting up the craft room but I need his help to do anything with regards to the furniture which means I didn’t have a surface on which to craft.  That has now changed and hopefully, over the next week or so we will finish off the furniture and I can finally move into the room.  And hopefully find the things I want to use like vellum, decorative masks and embossing folders!

If I haven’t crafted for a while I tend to find the mojo goes missing!  Do you have this problem?  One of the ways I combat missing mojo is to CASE the Catalogue (Copy And Share Everything).  Seeing how the designers have used different products often kickstart my own creativity.

I decided to make a card which is featured on page 10 of the January to June 2021 Mini Catalogue.  It features the lovely Always In My Heart Bundle (comprising the Always In My Heart stamp set and the coordinating Floral Heart Dies).  I really love the dies in this bundle.  Whilst I faithfully recreated the card, don’t you think it could be lovely in blues and silvers, or golds and pinks?

Here’s the card…

 

I did switch up colouring the background as I was dying to use the new Blending Brushes!  They are so lovely!  I think you are going to love them too.

My big tip for this project is to use the Adhesive Sheets, particularly for the smaller die cut flowers.  I tend to get liquid adhesive EVERYWHERE and I’m pretty heavy-handed (even when I think I am being super careful) so by adding the Adhesive Sheets before you die cut the images, they will be all ready to add straight onto your project!  So good!

This card was pretty easy to create and didn’t take much time at all.  I hope you’ll give it a go!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day!

CASE the CatalogueHandsomely SuitedMasculine

You’re the Best (Handsomely Suited) – CASE the Catalogue

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, I know a lot of us struggle making masculine themed cards.  It is so easy to make pretty, feminine cards as the range and scope of stamps are so much broader.  If you struggle then you might be a fan of the Well Suited suite.  The Handsomely Suited stamp set has masculine themed sentiments such as “Have a Happy Father’s Day Handsome”, and “To One of the World’s Greatest Dads”.   There are other more general sentiments such as “A Happy Birthday to You”, “Thank You” and “You’re the Best” which can be used with any other stamp set too.  The coordinating die set called Suit & Tie Dies is so cool!  You can actually create suit coats, or shirts and suspenders.  Want a pocket? You can add that too.  It’s so fun! (The Handsomely Suited stamps and Suit & Tie dies can be purchased as a bundle for a 10% discount).  The Well Suited suite collection also contains twine but I have not used it for this card.

The card I am sharing today is CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) from the January to June 2021 Mini Catalogue.  It is a really quick and easy card.  Could be used for any occasion.  All you need to do is stamp the bow ties on a range of different coloured papers (I used the Well Suited Designer Series Paper) and then die cut them.  Add them to a panel of patterned which you have die cut using the Stitched Rectangle dies.  Stamp the sentiment in Poppy Parade on this panel.  Add to another panel of patterned paper.  I then attached this to a Basic Black cardstock base.

Here’s the card…

 

It’s a great card, isn’t it?  I think this would be a fun one to create a few of to have in the stash.

If you are a fan of this suite, by purchasing it you automatically qualify for a Level 1 Sale-A-Bration reward.  If you wanted the Bundle and the Paper only, this too would qualify for the Level 1 Sale-A-Bration reward.  They can be purchased in my online store.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day!

Berry BlessingsCASE the CatalogueFloating & Fluttering

You Always Have a Way of Making My Day (Floating & Fluttering / Berry Blessings) – CASE the Catalogue

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, I hope you all had a wonderful day yesterday.  How are you spending Boxing Day?  Recovering?  Shopping?  Hanging out with family and friends?  I am hoping to Zoom with the extended family and also do some crafting!  *fingers crossed*

Today I am sharing a card CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) from page 7 of the Sale-A-Bration catalogue. It features the beautiful Floating & Fluttering stamp set, coordinating Fluttering die set and the Sale-A-Bration stamp set Berry Blessings. The patterned paper is called the Oh So Ombre Designer Series Paper and it too is a new Sale-A-Bration freebie choice. (All products will be available from 5 January 2021.)

Here’s the card…

 

Okay, truthfully, this card looks so much better in the catalogue.  I think that sometimes we love a card so much that when we CASE it faithfully, we don’t put our own personality and style on it.  I think I might try it again but this time do it in a more ‘Kylie’ style.  I recommend that you do the same when you CASE something and it doesn’t quite work how you think it will.

All of the new items featured above will be available from 5 January 2021.  If you cannot wait, Demonstrators can actually obtain these products now.  All the signing up details are here, if this interests you.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day!

Happy Birthday (Pretty Perennials) – CASE the Catalogue

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, I hope you are all enjoying these sneaks peeks at new products which are heading our way next month.  Today I’ve got another peek – this time at the Pretty Perennials stamp set.  There is a coordinating die set Perennial Petals but I haven’t used the dies on this card.  The stamps and dies will be available at a bundle for a 10% discount which is always great!

I’ve CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) this card from the January to June 2021 Mini Catalogue.  I still don’t have access to all of my supplies so I have changed up colours.  The card in the catalogue used a beautiful ribbon so that too had to go by the wayside.  I think it would have really lifted the card so I am looking forward to trying it again when my craft room is furnished and unpacked.

Here’s the card...

 

It’s going to be such a fun stamp set to create with, don’t you agree?

Hello Friend (A Touch of Ink) – Sneak Peak (CASE the Catalogue)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I’m sharing another sneak peek from the upcoming Sale-A-Bration promotion.  As a Demonstrator, I am able to access these new products early – isn’t that a great perk!  I had to dive in and start using them, which is great since most of my stuff is still in storage!

The card is CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) from the new Sale-A-Bration catalogue.  If you are an existing customer of mine, I have arranged for the new catalogues to be sent to you as soon as they are available.  You are going to love them!

Back to the card – I’ve used the Sale-A-Bration paper called Flower & Field.  It has gorgeous images which are perfect for those of you who like fussy-cutting.  You can cut out the images and arrange them as you like.  The other sides have a more understated design.  It’s so pretty!

The sentiment comes from another Sale-A-Bration offer and is called A Touch of Ink.  It’s a two-step stamp set.  It’s pretty awesome!

Here’s the card…

In the catalogue, the card featured a lovely ribbon but I don’t have any with me so I substituted with a banner of So Saffron cardstock to coordinate with the Flowers & Field patterned paper.

All of the Sale-A-Bration items feature above will be available to choose for free with qualifying purchases from 5 January 2021.  If you cannot wait, Demonstrators can actually obtain these products now.  All the signing up details are here, if this interests you.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day!

Merry and Bright Christmas (Peace and Joy) – CASE the Catalogue

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, wow! I can’t believe we are almost in December! For such a crazy year, those days still keep ticking away. I’m also counting the day down as tomorrow my 14 day isolation period ends! WOOHOO!  I cannot wait!   To get us into the Christmas spirit, I thought I would share a card I CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) from the August to December 2020 Mini Catalogue.  It’s such a cool design!

The card features the Peace and Joy Bundle.   The dies are the coolest!  I love how they layer.  The best tip I have for using these dies – in particular, the top word die, is to add adhesive, in the form of Adhesive Sheets, to the cardstock before you die cut them.  It’s then really easy to make sure every part of the die cut adheres well to your card.

Here’s the card…

This is such a fun card!  You could also change it up with a different combination of colours.  I think the card has such a great visual impact!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day!

CASE the CatalogueChristmasPeace & Joy

Peace and Joy (Peace and Joy)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, one of my favourite cards in the August to December 2020 Mini Catalogue was a Christmas card featuring the Peace & Joy Bundle.  It was relatively simple but had a great impact. You can see it on page 18.  One of the first things I did when I bought the Peace & Joy Bundle was to recreate this card.

The most challenging part of this card, aside from the fussy cutting (I know some of you are not a fan of fussy cutting), was lining up the stamped image with the die-cut card base.  There are a few ways you can do this part.  I think I made it harder than it needed to be but I’ll share my process.  I cut a panel of Whisper White Cardstock which was smaller than the card base.  I positioned the Peace and Joy stamps where I thought I would be happy with them.  I then picked up both stamps on the one block.  You could also use your Stamparatus for this process.  I stamped the words in Misty Moonlight on the Whisper White panel.  After cleaning the stamps, I actually positioned the Joy dies over the stamps and tried to make then as perfectly spaced as I could.  I used removable tape to tape the dies together.  Next up, I put them onto my card base and ran them through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine.  Once that was done all I had to do was tape the stamped panel to the card base, and then finish off the card.

Here’s the card…

 

I love this card so much.  The card sample in the catalogue used the smaller die so that less white space was showing.  I decided I really loved the look of more white space.  As you play around with card designs, especially if you are CASEing (Copy And Share Everything) a card, try and do what feels right for you.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day!

A Wish for EverythingCASE the CatalogueDesigner Series Paper

Wishing You a Happy Birthday (A Wish For Everything)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, Happy Halloween! What a different experience it is going to be for many this year!  Halloween isn’t a big thing in Australia, although it is gaining popularity.  Not much happens in my neighbourhood most years.  The card I am sharing isn’t one you’d necessarily pick as being Halloween but I thought it seemed a perfect option for today.  The card uses items from the Magic In This Night suite which is the main offering from Stampin’ Up! for Halloween this year.  Stampin’ Up! is also the source of inspiration for my card.  I’m CASE-ing (Copy And Share Everything) a card they shared on their Facebook page yesterday.  It immediately grabbed my attention and I wanted to share the idea with you all.

First up, you’ll need the Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper.  Find the black floral image design, grab your Paper Snips and start cutting out all the different images.  To add colour, I scribbled the Pretty Peacock Stamp ‘N Write Marker on to an Acrylic Block.  With my Water Painter, I picked up some of the ink and watercoloured some of the images.  I had initially tried to colour directly on to the paper but I found it was too dark and you lost some of the detail of the paper.  I adhered the images to the cardstock panel.  Next up, I added my sentiment.  The stamped images are from A Wish For Everything.  The die is from the coordinating die set Word Wishes.   The sequins were the finishing touch.  I used the Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins as that was all I had on hand.  I first coloured the Balmy Blue sequins with the Dark Bermuda Bay Stampin’ Blends Marker but it wasn’t quite the right colour.  I then tried colouring over this with the Pretty Peacock Stamp ‘N Write Marker.  It did work but it can wipe off so I probably wouldn’t use this in the future. I’ll stick to using Stampin’ Blends to colour sequins and rhinestones.

Here’s the card…

Isn’t it awesome? I love the dark colours with the Pretty Peacock.  It’s so different!  I think it would also look fabulous when combined with Blackberry Bliss too!  I hope you’ll give it a go!

On Sale!

You can save 15% on the Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper as well as other selected Designer Series Paper during the for one more day!  This sale ends tonight!

CASE the CatalogueChristmasComing HomeItty Bitty Christmas

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year (Coming Home / Itty Bitty Christmas) – CASE the Catalogue

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, with Christmas fast approaching it is time to start working on, or at least seriously thinking some more about Christmas cards.  These days I tend to make a few different cards before deciding on a design.  If you are stuck for ideas, take a look at our catalogues.  There are so many fabulous ideas and today I am CASE-ing (Copy And Share Everything) a card which caught my eye.

If you find yourself CASE-ing a card and wondering why your card doesn’t work or doesn’t look the same, keep in mind that in Australia we use A4 paper and decimal sizing, whereas in the USA (where the Stampin’ Up! and their catalogue originates) they use 8.5″x11″ paper and imperial sizes.  Sometimes this difference doesn’t mean much but other times it does…such as with this card.

My card uses products from the Trimming the Town Suite.  The Coming Home stamp set does not have sentiments so I needed to find a different sentiment to go with it.  In the end, I paired it with a sentiment from the Itty Bitty Christmas set. After I had die cut all the pieces and started to place them all together I realised that the larger Australian sized card base was going to be a problem.  Given I had already adhered the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper to the card base, I had to find a way to make it work.   In the end, I added another mat under the main panel.  It helped to tie everything together.

Here’s the card…

I love the Coming Home stamp set.  You can create such darling scenes.

Have you started on your Christmas cards?  Do you like to get them done to post on the 1st of December or do you end up leaving them until the last minute?

On Sale!

You can save 15% on selected Designer Series Paper including Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper during the month of October 2020.

Happy Birthday (Sunflowers / Itty Bitty Greetings) – CASE the Catalogue

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing a card CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) from one of the best places to go for inspiration – the Stampin’ Up! Catalogue.  This card features the Sunflower dies (which coordinate with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set).

My big tip for a card like this is to apply Adhesive Sheets (I think these are a must-have item for die-cutting) to the back of your cardstock before you die cut it.  It makes it so much easier to adhere the different sections together.  For the top layer of petals, I only stuck the adhesive to the centre part of the flower so that it was properly secured but could I could separate the tips of the petals for more dimension.

Here’s the card…

Isn’t this a pretty card? I think you could also change up the background patterned papers, and switch up the colours of cardstock.  You could also use the stamped image instead of the die cuts if you prefer.  I hope you’ll give it a go.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day!
