Catty Case....Sort of

I have been pouring over the new catalog lately. Isn't amazing how you can see something new every time? I noticed this card sketch on page 13 and wanted to give it a try. Now mine doesn't have the same proportions to the catalog example. And I didn't use the same stamps sets. It's just the general idea of the card.

I added another idea that caught my eye. This one on page 97. Punching many holes along the long side of the Always Artichoke with the 1/16" circle punch. Then, going back and cutting to each punched hole. I roughed it a bit, too.

Sadly, the only current stamp used on this card is the bird, from Friends 24-7.

I have been working on many cards this week, just nothing I'm ready to show, just yet. Stay tuned!

  2. What a beautiful card Shelley!! I'm into fall colors right now and sure enjoy your layout... I know the card you worked off in the Catty! We did a similar card at Julie's card club. Perfect way to use up those scraps!! (God knows I have a ton of that!) I'm sure you do too... :) Hope your summer is going well and getting some warm temps. We have highs later this week of only 68 and this is JULY I think... LOL! What will 6 months from now bring... 68 below! Ha.. :) Sweet dreams... Michelle :)
