Hi there! Welcome to addINKtive designs and the CASEing the Catty Sunday Blog Hop.
CTC is a group of Stampin’ Up! ® Demonstrators from Australia and New Zealand who love to create using the Stampin’ Up! ® catalogues as inspiration.
Every Sunday night at 7pm (AEST), the CTC Crew will either directly CASE (Copy and Share Everything) or use a sketch/layout, colour combo, embellishment, just to name a few examples, as a springboard for their own creations.
This week we are CASEing projects from the Birthday Section of the brand new annual Stampin’ Up! Catalogue which covers pages 68-85.
I took inspiration from page 68 of the catty (the card with the two poodles) and incorporated a fancy fold into the design.
Birthday Memories Suite
Extra Fun with a Fancy Fold
For the fancy fold, I followed a tutorial by Janet Wakeland and modified the measurements to suit our longer card stock (metric).
1. The folded insert has wider panels (5.5 cms) and is a bit taller than the suggested size in Janet’s video tutorial.
2. Cut out a square with the Layering Squares Framelits from the card front.
3. Second layer of card stock measures 14.4cms x 10cms.
4. Turn over the DSP and frame the scalloped die evenly around the front cut out section.
5. Attach the folded insert to the inside, right side of the card.
6. Stamp the sentiment to the white cut out piece and line up with the front opening. Use the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch with the Blushing Bride cut out, punch out and attach to the back. Tie a small piece of ribbon to the opening of the tag.
7. Die cut and fussy cut the two poodles and attach to the front of the card with Dimensionals.
The CTC Crew kick start each challenge with a blog hop and you have all week to create and join in. We’d love to see you there and make sure you invite all your crafty friends to join the group.
