Another week has gone by so it’s time to show you my take on CASE-ing the Catty Challenge #4. In CTC4, the aim was to look at the Wedding section (pages 60 – 71) of the Stampin’ Up! annual catalogue and find a project to re-create. I chose the gift-card holder on page 70 to CASE. While the challenge didn’t …

The challenge site says: You can directly CASE …

Good Monday to you! Hope you had a fabulous weekend. As I said yesterday, I spent much of Sunday crafting away – making up unfinished class cards and creating some new things too. My July class card last month featured butterflies – lots of them! The stamped images came from the Kinda Eclectic stamp set and …

I really wanted to do this week’s CASE-ing the Catty challenge but couldn’t get it finished until today so apologies for the quality of the photos. This week’s challenge was to CASE a project …
