Stampin Dreams Blog Hop - CASEing the Catty



Welcome back everyone 😊 
Today I am taking part in the monthly Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop. 
You are currently visiting Kim Oliver from Australia. 
All of participants are CASEing projects from the beautiful new 2017-2018 Catalogue.

This is the card from the catalogue which I have chosen to CASE and can be found on pg 176



It uses the fabulous Embossing Paste and  the Pattern Party Decorative Masks along with the Feather Together stamp set.

And here is my CASE:

A True Gentleman

Basics of the card.
The card base is Thick whisper white and the layer is Elegant Eggplant.
The embossing paste has been coloured with Elegant Eggplant and Dapper Denim. 
The feathers were stamped using differing layers and stamping off before stamping onto the card stock in Elegant Eggplant.  
I overlaid the focal with Vellum just to soften the impact of the purple colour and make the sentiment stand out.
I also heat embossed the paste in silver to add sparkle and movement in direct light.

The Dapper Denim twine was added along with the metallic sequins just to add some textural elements and interest points.
The inside was created using the Elegant Eggplant and Whisper White in layers. T
o carry the theme through to the inside I stamped a single feather inside, using the same technique as the front.
