Exciting news to share tonight – as of this Sunday, I’ll be joining the CASEing the Catty Design Crew!
This means a blog hop every Sunday night – where I will share a design inspired by the stamping ‘bible’ – the catalogue! And I’ll link you to creations from other fabulous CTC designers from Australia & NZ.
Before I officially start with the crew, I wanted to join in with the monthly challenge {and I think you should too!}.
The theme for CASEing the Catty #85 is Babies & Kids – pages 56-65.
This was a tough choice as I actually own all of the sets in this section!!! I guess that’s what happens when you have little people in the house and everyone around you either has kids or is making them!
This particular card is a congratulations card for friends who shared their good news on the weekend that they are pregnant. I couldn’t be happier for them and wanted to send a pretty card to mark the occasion.
I’ve used two catalogue samples for my inspiration…
The layout of this card…
And the colour scheme of the card on the left…
To create this card…
Although not specifically from the Babies & Kids section, I just adore the ‘congrats’ die from the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits. I think that’s what drew me to CASE that particular card.
So, in that theme, I changed the stacking rings stamp for a butterfly die.
I can’t wait to see you on Sunday when I share my first card as part of the CTC design team – so excited!!! Kelly x

Totally LOVE this Kelly! i’d like to CASE it in fact, please? It is going to be fun having you on the crew at CTC.
Thanks Rachel! You never need permission to CASE my creations – it’s my pleasure to share! Kelly x
Congrats on making the CTC team! Love your card to bits, layout & colours. Great idea to CASE two and combine elements.
Thanks Krissy! So glad we’re on the team together!
Simplicity at its best! A great CASE.
Thanks Bronwyn!
I love how you have combined 2 cards to create your own unique one!! (And I only have about 1 stamp set of the babies & kids section!!) So glad to have you on the Crew!!
Thanks Bec – so glad to have been included!
How did I miss seeing this? What a great CASE, I had to go back to the catalogue to even find that first card. (and given how many hours I’ve spent studying it that amazes me !!) You’ve done a great job putting them together and creating something so perfect for the occasion. – Hope the pregnancy goes oh so smoothly for your friends. Welcome to the team!! I already feel your enthusiasm glowing !
I snuck this one in before I officially started! Thanks for having me!
So pleased you’re on the Team Kelly! It’s going to be great to have your amazing creations on the Hops! This CASE is fab!
Thanks Jackie!
