Creation Station Blog Hop - CASE the Catalogue



 Hello and welcome,

My name is Vicki Boucher, and I am from Melbourne, Australia. This is the latest hop with the design team at Creation Station, if you have come from Rachel's blog or you may have started with me. Please make sure you hop around and see everyone's amazing projects. I'll pop a link at the end of my blog.


My take on the cards I've CASEd from the Annual Catalogue 


The design team at Creation Station are presenting their projects with the theme "CASE the Catalogue" where we choose a favourite card in the catalogue and CASE it. My card or should I say cards is on page 107 of the Annual Catalogue as per photo below was chosen because of the gorgeous Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper and the layout of the detailed elements. 


Page 107 of the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue

Here's a close up of the cards from the catalogue


My three cards are the same layout as above, but I've used different paper, stamp sets, dies and colours for my CASE. I used the Country Lace Designer Series Paper I just love the colours from the paper especially Misty Moonlight, but all of the paper is just so pretty! Then I had to choose which stamp set and dies to use for my project. They are Unbounded Love Stamp Set which has a variety of sentiments, Unbounded Love Dies, Flowers of Beauty Stamp Set and Flowers of Beauty Dies they are all located on pages 52 to 55 and are part of the Unbounded Beauty Suite Collection. 

Next, was the colours to use with Misty Moonlight and they are Boho Blue, Fresh Freesia, Bubble Bath and Silver. I would use all of the colours on each of the cards and mix them around to change it up. Each of the sentiments are heat embossed with Silver Emboss Powder.


Happy Birthday Card


Out of the three cards this one would be my favourite because of the Misty Moonlight Designer Series Paper for the background and Silver Foil which is now available in the Annual Catalogue. 




I've stamped the large branch image in Fresh Freesia ink, die-cut out and then layered all of the other detailed die-cut pieces together.





With Sympathy Card



I don't do too many sympathy cards for my projects, but I like that the Unbounded Love Stamp Set has so many different greetings and you can mix and match them together. 



I used Misty Moonlight cardstock to die-cut out two of the smaller labels dies and placed them under the larger label in Basic White Cardstock. The large branch image is stamped in Boho Blue ink, die-cut out and then layered together with all of the other elements.






Hello Friend Card


For my last card I created my own sentiment using two separate stamps and making a friendly hello card. 


This time I used Boho Blue for the two smaller labels and stamped the larger branch image in Misty Moonlight ink. 




I found all three cards easy to make once you've stamped the images in the three colours, die-cut out lots of different elements and then arrange them to your card. I think it would make a lovely gift set to give to someone special for a present.
