Punch inspiration CTC#465

Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.

Tonight I'm joining the CASEING the CATTY blog hop to inspire you!!  To CASE is to Copy And Share Everything or to Copy And Selectively Edit and we love to CASE from our amazing Stampin' Up! catalogues.  

This week, we are CASEING a project featuring a retiring punch.  

I was inspired by this great card on page 94 of our retiring Annual Catalogue which features the retiring Inked and Tiled punch bundle.  I've cased the layout of the card and the greeting details.

My card features some gorgeous new paper from the Thoughtful Journey Suite.  The greeting has been punched using the very versatile Happy Labels punch.  

I've used the gorgeous designer paper, and the Thoughtful Journey stamp set and dies for the detailed elements.  To create the ribbon I coloured some White Diagonal Trim ribbon using my Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blends (Dark).  My final touch is some gorgeous glittery In Color Shimmer Gems.  

Inside the card features more stamping, some of the gorgeous paper and a bit of colouring.  

Make sure you keep hopping to see lots of amazing projects.
