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 Selectively Edit) 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 Artistic Expression section of the new annual Stampin’ Up! Catalogue which covers pages 132-181. I took inspiration from page 158 of the 2017/18 Annual Catalogue –

Wood Textures Suite –

… and made a new version of a z-fold card –

This one has a Farmer’s Market Theme, a shortened pop-out crate full of flowers and an overhanging roof! I wanted to close a couple of tabs in my brain that have been left open for a long time … LOL. Thank goodness for school holidays.

It took a while to construct but I got there in the end … and yes … I’ve figured out all the tricky bits to make it easy and have written a tutorial if you’d like to purchase one. It would be a fun project to share at your next stamp class or camp.

I made this as a get well card for a cousin of mine who is quite sick in hospital; it will last much longer than a bunch flowers and handmade is heart made.

 

Bird’s eye view – panels open to show roof extension.

Fits into a standard (C6) card size envelope.

The roof will stay upright if you want to open the card out further –

Thanks for hopping by!
