Project Life is one of my favorite go to things and I love that SU has incorporated more and more of it into thier product line. I use it for way more than just scrapbooking and for this week's Casing the Catty  was inspired to use it a a different a new way. 

I created a Advent Calendar using a one card from the Hello December Card Set and Accessory pack found on pages 36-38.

I die cut out all the Trees using the Perfect Pines Framelits and used the fun DSP Home For Christmas. 

I plan in adding Photos of the Holiday season through out the month of December to add to the whole  theme. I can than easily transfer this into a scrapbook for a memory at the end of the holiday season. 

I also love that I was able to use the frame from that adorable kit too. 

make sure to check out the next blogger Alison to see their beautiful work.

This is such a pretty and simple wreath. It took me only about thirty minutes to but the leaves on. It took  longer to figure out what colors I wanted to use in the stamping.

This week is all about Artistic Expression for CTC. Honestly I don't have much from this section yet but I do have one set which was a prize when the last catalog came out. 

I won Work of Art and well I wasn't to sure about it. I likely would not have purchased with a first impression look through the catty but after I had it awhile and started playing with it, It has become one I have changed my mind about. I have seen wonderful things done with it over the last year since it has been introduced. So today, I decided to use it for my card and of course CASE.

The card I cased is from page this section.

PRODUCTS I USED:

Work of Ar 13411

Whisper White Card Stock

Basic Black Card stock

Delightful Dijon Ink 138327

Bermuda Bay 132925

Cherry on Top Washi

Some left over string from a Paper Pumpkin Project

I changed up the colors and used the Schoolhouse DSP and Cardstock pack (Daffodil Delight, Pool Party, and Tangerine Tango).  I love these new idea of having coordinating packs of card stock with the DSP. It makes it so much easier. 

I also used a tad of the Cherry on Top Washi tap in the corner. 

I think this would be a cute card for Back to School which starts here in Texas in less than three weeks (Yes I am counting the days till the kids go back.)

Gift giving is one of my favorite things to do and we are celebrating on the hop this week for CTC!

This was so quick and easy and cased from pg 60 of the catty. I used a small jar I had on hand and wrapped Cherry on Top washi tape around it. I than punched out from the Cherry on Top DSP pack using the Decorative Label and stamped from Sprinkles on Top. So simple to make and a cute gift to give. I need to get some funny jelly beans to put in it though!

This week is all about the kids section of the Catty for CTC!

One of my favorite sets last year that was new was Sea Life. I loved it and did so much with it. I even imported it so my ecutter would cut it out handmade some cute backpacks for the kids. They loved them so much so I can totality see this being a kid's set. 

I used the following being inspired from Page 46

Hello Honey ink and card stock

Pumpkin Pie ink

Bermuda Bay ink and card stock

Sea Life and Crazy About you sets.

This week is all about the Love and Sympathy section in the catty for Casing the Catty. 

One of my favorite sets of all time and is still going strong in the Catty is Thoughts and Prayers on Page 26. I cased a version of the card there using the following:

Mint Macaron Cardstock and Ink

Tip Top Taupe Ink

Whisper White Cardstock

I also used the honeycomb embossing in folder to give it some texture. 

This was a super simple card and I know anyone would appreciate it.

This week's hop at CTC is all about the Catty Section of Thanks. 

I just got my new stuff in and of course I got some new paper which is the new Stack Cherry on Top along with the Cardstack Pack that comes with it. 

I love how it coordinates together and I can see many uses for that. 

I also used a new In Color of Watermelon Wonder and my new stamp set Sprinkles on Top. I loved the little donuts in it. 

Another fun new thing which I won from my Demo Stamp group was the Expressions Natural Elements which are 3D greetings- how cute are those. 

Onward to the next blog: Julia!

Blog Roll

Welcome to this week's CTC  blog hop which features ideas from the new Birthday section. I am way way behind on everything. School just let out here in Texas and we are in week 1 of summer vacation. I have decided organization is on the menu so I cleaned the kids room top to bottom this week as well as their playroom. I am so behind that I just made my first SU order last week from the new catty which is so unlike me but I have had zero time to actually sit down and decide what goodies I wanted. 

So when I decided to jump on board for this hop, I decided to use a new one from last catty that is returning this catty- Age Awareness as well as Crazy about You (which are two of my favs and so happy they stuck around). 

I took some Hello Honey paper as well as ink to use as the base of the card. Other colors used where Garden green and Blackberry Bliss. You would think I was a first time stamper with how much Blackberry bliss is all over my hands and desk. I am going to chalk it up to still working on motor skills in my left hand (even though the doc cleared me weeks ago and told me I was recovered). 

I think this such simple and pretty card that was inspired off of some Pinterest ideas that were out there.

Hopefully you have checked out everyone's great designs this week. There is so many wonderful ideas out there and I need time to play more with all of it!

Blog Hop Roll Call:

Father's day is right around the corner so this week's blog hop is all about CASing out of the Father's Day section of the Occasions catty and I specifically used the cute card on page 40 which used the Work of Art set and the Anchor. 

I used the same idea but used the cute Bug from Let's Get Away (I specifically bought that set for the bug) and used the April Paper Pumpkin set to make this fun card which is my hubby. I also used a variety of oranges like only orange (retired), calypso coral, and tangelo twist. I just went through my stamping spots and used them. 

Here is why:

His vintage '66 bug and yes it has a stache on it!
