Can You CASE it Friday - Come Sail Away

Friday, 8 November 2019

Today I've CASE'd (Copy and Share Everything) a card from the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue featuring the Sailing Home Bundle. This has been my featured bundle this week with my Colour Challenge blog post on Sunday and the card I designed on Tuesday blog post.

Today my card is CASE'd from the front page of the Annual Catalogue. I changed the size to a standard card , but other than that it's pretty close to the original.

I love how the Concept Artist at Stampin' Up! stamped the sentiment and then cut out the individual words!

Cut Designer Series Paper 4" x 5 1/4" and adhere to cardbase using Snail.
Cut rectangle using the 3 3/16" x 1 11/16" Stitched Rectangle die from Designer Series Paper.

Today's card features Toile Christmas. I CASE'd (copy and share everything) a card from page 6 of the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalogue.

Here's the card I CASE'd.

Here's my card:

I changed the size of the card to 5 1/2" x 4 1/4", but otherwise the card hasn't been changed from the version in the Catalogue. CASE'ing of cards is a great way to get inspiration. The cards featured in the Stampin' Up! catalogues are designed by the amazing Concept Artists at Stampin' Up! You can copy them exactly as they are or copy the layout and make some changes to the Designer Series Paper, ribbon, etc.

Instructions

Cut Crumb Cake cardstock 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and fold in half to form card base.
Cut Designer Series Paper 4" x 5 1/4".
Adhere to card base using Snail
Cut out 4 leaves using Gold Glimmer Paper
Stamp sentiment using Whisper White Craft Ink. Let dry and then cut out using banner die.
Adhere leaves to centre of the card using Snail
Adhere banner over top of bottom of leaves using Dimensionals.

Please be sure to use the current Host Code XET262HE to receive a free gift from me. When you place a $50 order (before shipping and taxes) using the Host Code, I'll send you four cards and instructions by mail as a thank you. If your order is over $200, please do not use the Hostess Code as you'll qualify for Stampin' Rewards, but I'll still send you the 4 free cards!

Happy Stamping!
