All Wrapped Up Colour Inspiration CTC#590


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 the lovely and interesting colours of the All Wrapped Up designer paper.


My project features the lovely new Stitched Blooms bundle that was used in the Virtual Cardmaking Retreat and is also in our Online Exclusive collection coming in November.


My card base is one of the fabulous Festive Flecks cards and envelopes which are printed and coordinate together.  I have folded the card into a Z fold so that all of the printed gorgeousness is on show rather than being on the front and back of the card.  The Z fold was created by folding the card inside out and then folding the front flap back to see all the colour.

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 our blog hop is all about Treat Packagaing!!  - Time to share the sweetness of giving!!  


The Advent Boxes are just PERFECT to decorate and share!!  The come in a pack of 24 stampable boxes which is just over $1 each!!!


I have wrapped some lovely Wood Wonders designer paper around the sides of the assembled box, and then cut a piece the exact size for the lid of the box so that you can still open the box and not break the cute wrapping.


I do love a monochrome theme, so I've used Pecan Pie for my ink and cardstock and this coordinates perfectly with the Kraft cardstock used for the box.  The label with the greeting was mounted onto a punched shape using the Rounded Rectangle punch - and I could have used the same punch to round the corners of the label too!  


I've used the sweet little lolly for the decorative detail on my blox and stamped and coloured  and cut them all using Golden Glow ink.  I love the effect of the lovely Neutral Jute tied through the centre!  


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

Home for Christmas scrapping inspiration CTC#589


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 scrapbooking layout as our starting point for inspiration!!



I've used one of the layouts from the Home for Christmas Scrapbooking workshop kit to get me started.


My card is very simple and only slightly different to the scraplayout.  I've cut a couple of trees from the gorgeous Timeless Metallic paper, fussy cut one from the Home for Christmas DSP and used a sticker from the Home for Christmas sticker sheet (along with the cute little stars)


I do love the fabulous scallop edge die!!  It has so much potential for flexiblity!!  


Inside the card, I've added more strips of paper and another little tree!
