Fun with Kits for CTC#148

Hello and Welcome to another awesome week of CASEing the Catty - where we share our inspiration from the fabulous Stampin' Up! Catalogues, and then challenge you to CASE: Copy And Share Everything our Catalogues too!!

This week we are challenged to CASE any Kits or Memories And More Collections in both catalogues.  

And, I've taken this great opportunity to open my Be Merry Kit which is an all inclusive kit creating 12 Christmas ornaments featuring Real Red and Old Olive colour schemes with a touch of gold.  

I LOVE an all inclusive kit - it's so much fun to be able to be creative without the stress of thinking!!!

The kit includes EVERYTHING to create 12 ornaments which has sparkly elements and features some gorgeous sparkly tulle which is added using a hot glue gun. 

I intend to use this kit for a class for a bunch of lovely ladies, but I don't want to use the hot glue gun in the class, so I've omitted the hot glue gun element and the tulle features around the medallion.  

The other pieces of the kit I have attached using stampin' dimensionals and mini glue dots instead of the hot glue gun.

After I'd made these sweet ornaments, I then thought that I really need to use these tulle circles somehow (waste not, want not), and so I came up with these little cards.... 

I've attached the tulle using snail adhesive and then run it through the big shot and the Winter Wonder embossing folder to really make it stick !!  I've added some punched glimmer paper circles and a stamped greeting from Oh What Fun.  The little tree on the Olive card is part of the left overs from the creation of the ornaments.

There are no leftovers from the candy cane ornament, so this Real Red card features  a string of gold mini sequins (and now that I look at the photo, it's rather skewed!! Whoops.)

Here is my collection of creations all inspired by the Be Merry Kit in the holiday catalogue.  I hope you are inspired by the amazing kits in our catalogue and that you will join in the fun with the challenge this week to CASE any kits of Memories and More projects!!  It's easy to add your project to our facebook challenge page.

And now it's time for you to continue your hop.  Make sure you keep going to see all the amazing projects from the whole design team.  You may have come from the wonderful project from Sandra, and next on the hop is the fantastic kit from Mel

Until next time,

Happy Stamping,

Love Julia   x
