Hey everyone! Welcome to another CASE-ing Tuesday! Hard to believe it’s the last Tuesday of September. I hope your week is off to a good start. If this is the first time stopping by my little world, welcome and please be sure to join my email list to keep up on all the scrappy news around here. Have you seen what we are casing (copy and hare everything) this week over at the CASE-ing Tuesday Facebook Group? If not, here’s a look at the sample and sketch:


I am so glad we have sketches, it really helps when you have so many layers. But, as you can see, I changed mine up quite a bit.

For my take this week I decided to use the Ornamental Christmas bundle with the Modern Christmas Specialty DSP. Such an elegant suite of products! And that two-pack of twine in black and gold and white and gold is the perfect touch! I started with a 4 1/4″ x 11″ Thick Basic White card base and trimmed my sheet of DSP to 4″ x 5 1/4″. I decided to use the Christmas trees instead of all the stitched squares for the layers. I stamped them in Real Red ink, die cut them and added them to the DSP with dimensionals. I then added my twined by wrapping it around three times and tucking the ends into Stampin’ Seal Adhesive that I had applied to the back of the DSP. I then attached it all to the card front. Next, I trimmed my scrap of Basic White to the measurements given, stamped a portion of the sentiment in Tuxedo Black ink, and then added it to a 2 1/4″ x 3/4″ piece of Gold Foil and then added both to a 2 1/2″ x 1″ piece of Basic Black. I added more Seal to the back and dimensionals to add it to the card. I added the extra Seal to catch the twine between the dimensionals. For my bling, I colored some of our rhinestones with my Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blends Marker and sprinkled them on.

For the inside, I stamped the rest of the sentiment from the front and the Merry Christmas, also in Tuxedo Black and added a 3/4″ x 5 1/2″ strip of the DSP.

And don’t forget to decorate your envelope! I stamped another of the trees on the front of the envelope to tie it all together.

Don’t you just love that foiled DSP?!? The entire pack is absolutely stunning!!
Now it’s your turn! Create your take on this week’s sample and share it with us over at the CT Facebook. You can create it just like the sample or sketch or change it up like I did. That’s the fun part of casing – you get to create it your way with your style. We would love to have you join us and share your creation!
Thank you so much for stopping by today. If you’d like to add any of the product I used today to your stash, just head over to my online store to shop. I hope you have a great week and if you get a chance to get inky, even better!
