CASE-ing the Catty | #ctc495 | Case a die project from either catalogue

 Hello Stamping Friends. Welcome to a super exciting CASE-ing the Catty Blog Hop. We at CASE-ing the Catty are about CASE-ing the samples from the Stampin' Up! Catalogues (Catty) with a different theme to CASE each week. To CASE is to Copy and Selectively Edit.

If you've come from Monique Fielder's blog welcome, if you have started here with me also welcome.

This week we are CASE-ing a project using dies from either the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue or the Stampin' Up! 2024 Sept-Dec Mini Catalogue. I realised after I made my box that the sample I CASE-d my project on isn't actually in either catalogue because the products used in the sample are Online Exclusives. Oops! I figured I was still CASE-ing a Stampin' Up! sample so I thought I would just go with it.

I love the layering of the original sample along with the addition of the twine and embellishments.

From the original sample it looks like it is a box, so I made a box as well. I've made a simple 'pizza' style box but rectangular instead of square. It's the perfect size to hold a few chocolates or a small gift.

The DSP used comes from the A Little Bit Festive Mix & Match Specialty DSP. I love the Night of Navy Gingham and not only is it perfect for your Christmas crafts but it's a DSP design that can be used all year round. So versatile! Under the DSP layers I've used one of the Christmas Label Dies, cut in half, made to look like it was one long die. I hadn't planned for the negative pieces of the die cut to stay in but when I pulled the die cut out of the die and they all stayed in I thought it looked awesome that way so in they stayed. This is a fantastic way to give different look to your die cuts.

I've embellished my box using the Joyful Images and Joyful Sayings Mix & match Ephemera. I've layered the ephemera and sentiment like the design on the original box. I've changed the orientation of the twine only because I liked it better horizontal instead of vertical. Personal preference.

I've finished the box off with a placement of a few of the Opal Rounds. They coordinate so perfectly.

I love that when using the Mix & Match Ephemera how quick your creation comes together, and the ephemera makes for some budget friendly crafting. 

Next up on the hop is the lovely Peta Stephen. Be sure to give her some CASE-ing the Catty Blog Hop love.
