Cutest Crew is ADORABLE!! CTC#560


Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.


Tonight you get to enjoy our amazing CASEING the CATTY blog hop.  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 (catty!)




This week, we are CASEING a project featuring animals - and I have used the card above with its lovely combination of circles.


My project features the Cutest Crew bundle (as well as the Stitched Circles dies) which is totally adorable.  I love that great bit Hello greeting!!


I've used the stamp for the birds and also the die cut for the little birds.  I coloured some cardstock using a Summer Splash Stampin' Blend and then die cut the little birds which gave them a bit of multicoloured interest!  


I also coloured the stamped birds too.  Notice that great striped background?  That was created using the lovely Pastels Shimmer paper and one of the dies from the Cutest Crew - PERFECT!


Inside is some more coloured cute birds and another of my favourite greetings from this stamp set!!  



Up next is the extraordinary Rebecca

Cutest Crew of course!!


Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.


Tonight I'm hopping with an awesome bunch of talented Australian crafters who love sharing with you!!



And this month Mandy has challenged us to showcase the animal kingdom.  I just HAD to use those super cute kitties from the Cutest Crew bundle available THIS MONTH!!  


I've made a spanner card with opens to show layers of kittens, then flowers from the Extraordinary Flora washi tape and die, and then opens inside for the greeting.  The lovely long line of kittens worked perfectly for this type of card!!


The Extraordinary Flora details make it so easy to create the lovely garden for the kittens to frolic!!  


This is basically a standard card, and then it is cut up to the centre line on the front at 3 1/2 cm from each side (or 1 1/4 inches).  


I used the lovely Mixed Patterns DSP for my side and front centre panels with a mix of both sides of the same paper. 




Make sure you keep hopping to see lots of amazing inspiration just for you!
