CASE the Catalogue Lasting Lily Sale-A-Bration

CASE the Catalogue: Wishing You Well (Lasting Lily)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, are you ready for another CASE the Catalogue card? If you have never heard of this term it means, Copy And Share Everything. It’s a fantastic way to inspire or challenge yourself to try something a little different. All you need to remember to do is give credit to the original artist. Today’s card is a fairly faithful recreation of a card featured in the Sale-A-Bration catalogue. A few things inspired me – the colour palette (I never use yellows as the main feature of my cards), the use of the gingham paper, and the way lilies pop out of the centre circle.

The stamps used to create this card are from the Lasting Lily stamp set. This is a beautiful set which is perfect for those harder times in life as there are many Sympathy type sentiments.

Here’s the card…

Truthfully, if I was to make this card again there are a number of things I would do differently. I’d like to pop up the entire gingham panel and maybe even pop up all three lilies (for this card, I popped up the biggest lily). I’d move the sentiment strip lower down so it wasn’t so centred in the middle of the card. And this, right here, is another benefit of CASE-ing – you learn things you like and want to try again with new projects.

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

CASE the Catalogue Lasting Lily Sale-A-Bration

Wishing You Well (Lasting Lily)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing another two cards CASEd from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue. The cards featured the Lasting Lily stamp set which is a limited edition, Sale-A-Bration stamp set. This means it could be yours for free when you place a qualifying order. I think it would make a great addition to any stamp collection.

The catalogue featured two colourways – one with Daffodil Delight for the petals and the other card featured Pool Party for the petals. I loved them both so I had to make them both. When you are CASE-ing projects, don’t worry if you don’t have the same supplies – just go with what you have. Sometimes you might just be inspired by the overall design, or colour palette and other times you might more faithfully recreate it. Just try and put your own spin on the card – you’ll love it more! I certainly didn’t have the same supplies but I really like how the cards finished up.

Here’s the first card…

Here’s the second card…

Aren’t they pretty? The one thing which I really wanted to point out to you is that I stamped the sentiment in Old Olive on the Pool Party Cardstock. I tend to favour stamping on Whisper White cardstock or do white embossing on Basic Black cardstock. Doesn’t this look really lovely though? I think I am going to have to try this again more in the future! I hope you’ll give it a try too!

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

Amazing Life Birthdays Botanical Butterfly DSP Sale-A-Bration

Happy Birthday (Botanical Butterflies DSP)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, I recently shared two cards inspired by a project on page 9 of the first Sale-A-Bration catalogue. The catalogue sample featured a clear acetate box filled with Coastal Cabana cards and secured by a belly band of the super cute butterflies which had been cut out from the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper. It was so pretty.

At the time I mentioned how I thought you could select any colour from the patterned paper to use as your base card and then make a set of cards. I thought they’d look so lovely. One of my friends suggested I should do this and so today I am sharing another couple of cards based on the original design. This project illustrates so perfectly one of the things I love about Stampin’ Up! – the way everything coordinates so beautifully! It really takes out half the guesswork, especially if you don’t feel confident with your colours.

The first card features Grapefruit Grove.

Here’s the card…

Isn’t it lovely! Next up was Highland Heather.

Here’s the Card…

Aren’t they beautiful! The only change I made with this card is that I used the Subtle embossing folder to add some more texture to the base card. I totally love this look and now I have a cute set of cards to gift!

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

Lasting Lily Sale-A-Bration Thank you

Thank You for your endless love and support (Lasting Lily)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, as we draw nearer to the end of Sale-A-Bration, I thought I would share a card using the beautiful Lasting Lily stamp set. This is a stamp set which could be yours with a qualifying purchase during Sale-A-Bration. It is a lovely stamp set and is perfect for Sympathy cards. I find those types of cards very difficult to make. A stamp set like this makes it much easier. The lilies themselves are beautiful and the sentiments are so lovely.

I decided to make a brighter thank you card with this stamp set. I will definitely pick my recipient as I know some people have very strong opinions regarding the lily. One member of my family refuses to have lilies in his house and refers to them as the death lilies.

I actually started by embossing Old Olive cardstock with the Layered Leaves embossing folder. I hadn’t used this folder in a while and I don’t know why not as it is fantastic! I then stamped up my images and cut them out. There are coordinating dies which would have made this a lot easier! Next up I added a layer of vellum and then positioned the lilies. I stamped the sentiment and die cut it with the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies and adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I didn’t have any coordinating ribbon so I took the Whisper White Sheer Ribbon and coloured it with the Dark Lovely Lipstick Stampin’ Blends Marker. I added this bow to the flowers. Lastly, I added some of the Pearl Basic Jewels to finish off the card.

Here’s the Card…

The more I look at this card the more I think it look beautiful when made with a Very Vanilla background and then some soft shades like Petal Pink or Blushing Bride for the petals and Soft Sea Foam for the stems. Hmmm….might have to give it a go.

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

Amazing Life Botanical Butterfly DSP Butterfly Gala CASE the Catalogue Sale-A-Bration

I believe in you (Botanical Butterflies DSP / Amazing Life)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, you’ve often heard me talk about how fantastic the catalogue is for providing inspiration. I think the samples are AMAZING! Sometimes the sample I love is a 3D project and I rarely do them. So instead of thinking I can’t (or won’t) make that project, I think about how I might be able to convert it to a card. Sometimes that is a very easy process – like today’s cards. Other times, it is a little more complicated.

I was inspired by a project on page 9 of the first Sale-A-Bration catalogue. It features a clear acetate box filled with Coastal Cabana cards and secured by a belly band of the super cute butterflies which had been cut out from the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper. It looks good.

Here’s the Inspiration Piece…

I had to give it a try. The fiddliest part is cutting out the butterflies but even that doesn’t take too long. I didn’t worry about saving the antenna either. I stamped them on later using the Butterfly Gala stamp set. You could also draw them on with a black marker if you wanted. I used Wink of Stella to add a bit more sparkle to the butterflies. It really gave them a lift!

Here’s the Card…

After making the above card, I had to make another one but this time chose Pool Party as my base. So pretty.

Here’s the Card…

Seriously, isn’t this the cutest! I think you could pick out any of the colours in the patterned paper and use that as your base. Pick up a spool of the Whisper White 1/8″ Sheer Ribbon and you can colour it to match any of the backgrounds you like. So effective!

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

Botanical Butterfly DSP Butterfly Gala Sale-A-Bration Technique

A Little Note (Botanical Butterfly DSP / Butterfly Gala)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, I’ve shared a couple of cards showcasing the Spotlight Technique featuring the Botanical Butterfly DSP recently. It is such a fun technique and the Botanical Butterfly DSP is perfect to create cards which WOW!

Take a sheet of the black and white illustrated paper from the Botanical Butterfly DSP. Select the area which you want to spotlight. Once you have identified it, use a post-it note to hold the die in place. Trim the paper to fit the black card base. This panel is then run through the Big Shot to cut out the rectangle you are going to spotlight.

I coloured in the panel with my Stampin’ Blends (you can any colouring medium you prefer).

Once the panel is coloured, mat it on black cardstock. I added some Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the panel and then positioned it in place on the card being careful to align it perfectly.

Here’s the Card…

And here is a look at the trio of cards featuring the Spotlight Technique…

Don’t the cards look fantastic? I LOVE this technique. I also think this would make a great gift set. The Botanical Butterfly DSP is only available as a FREE item with qualifying orders during Sale-A-Bration. Sale-A-Bration ends at the end of the month. So, please, don’t delay if you like this paper, or indeed, any of the Sale-A-Bration freebies.

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