Varied Vases CASE the Catalog

Hello! Hello! I have been one very busy girl lately! So much to do; so little time! I am getting ready to do a three hour card making event at my church’s annual Women’s Retreat! My friend, Barb, and I are preparing 15 different card designs; 10 packets of each design! We have had months to prepare but I do think procrastination is my middle name! Is there a pill I can take for that???

All cardmakers, me included, run out of design ideas. We get what I call Crafter’s Block! Or you want to make cards but don’t have time or energy to come up with an idea. I was watching a video by Jackie Bolhuis at http://KlompenStampers.com and she was talking about where she gets inspiration…the Stampin’ Up! Catalog! Well, duh! Why didn’t I think of that?!!! There are sooo many great ideas in every Stampin’ Up! Catalog!!! So I turned to page 13 of the 2018-2019 Annual Stampin’ Up! Catalog and made this card…

As you can see, my creative juices started running while I was making the card:) The vases on this card are stamped but wait till you see the next card…

The In Color Designer Series Paper really made this card fun! See how I stamped the vases then punched out with the coordinating punch? By the way, when you purchase the Varied Vases stamp set and the Vases Builder Punch as a Bundle, you save 10%.

I needed a card for a cousin who loves orchids so made this card…

The above card is very similar to the last card but I used a different orientation and check out the sentiment!!! Because these are Photopolymer stamps, you can bend them so I bent the stamp to fit the space! Love it!!!

As you can see, I decorated all the envelopes (no naked envelopes for me) and I even put a cute flower inside…

I want to encourage you to pick a card design in the catalog to CASE (Copy And Share Everything) and see where it takes you! This is especially fun if you have a stamp set in mind you want to use but have no idea what to do with it!

Thanks for stopping by! On Thursday I have another CASEing idea for you! See you then!
