CTC 47 – Oh What Fun Tag Kit Cards
Welcome! I’m so excited to be a brand new member of the CASE-ing the Catty Crew. These guys deliver gorgeous creations in the form of a blog hop every Friday, and use the pages of the Stampin’ Up! catalogues for inspiration. CASEing = Copy & Share Everything.
You may have arrived from Elizabeth‘s blog or directly from the CASE-ing the Catty website.
For my regular readers, I have no doubt you will love hopping around the loop each week and seeing all the great ideas. What a perfect way to start the weekend!
Let’s Kit Together
This week’s theme is ‘Let’s Kit Together’, and we’re looking at the ready-to-go kits on pages 4 – 7 of the new Holiday Catalogue for inspiration. This gave me the perfect excuse to get up close with the Oh What Fun Tag Project Kit.
There are enough supplies in this kit to make three each of 10 different tags.
I had an idea that I’d like to convert some of the tags to full cards. And this is what I ended up with.
I used a variety of different Christmas stamp sets for the greetings.
Isn’t it great how different fonts really change the ‘feel’ of a card? From traditional to casual, formal to relaxed. True confessions: I do have a secret ‘thing’ for fonts.
Here are some of the cards up close (you can always click on the images to enlarge).
I used the Crumb Cake Note Cards & Envelopes as the card base. What a quick and easy way to make a stack of cards.
And the card front is embossed with the new Softly Falling embossing folder.
A few extra embellishments like red foil sheets (above) and silver satin ribbon (below) add to the fun.
The note cards and envelopes are perfect for this project, and I love that they are pre-scored and ready to go. A perfect match for these kits.
So what do you think? I’m loving this kit – for tags and cards.
Thanks to the CTC Crew for inviting me to play along.
And now I’m thrilled to bits to hand you on to the next blogger on our hop… the a-maz-ing Jessica Williams. Yes, she really is amazing!
Happy stamping,

Aren’t those tags such a good inspiration starter? I like what you did with yours too, Simone, the crumb cake is a good base colour.
