We'll Walrus Be Friends CASE the Catalog

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you a card that I CASEd from the 2019 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.  CASE means Copy and Share Everything or Copy and Selectively Edit.  Casing a design is a great way to learn new techniques, and skills as well.  Casing is also a great way to improve skills.  The card that I cased came from page 83.  Here's a look at my card.

This is the image I CASEd and was inspired by.

My Version: 

I tried to make my version of this card as close as I could.  I started out with a Smoky Slate card base.  The card base in the picture above is a side folding card 5 1/2 x 8 1/2.  I created mine as a top folding card 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2.  

I then took a piece of Pool Party cut at 4 x 5 1/4 and used the High Seas 3D embossing folder and attached it to the card front.  I then used a piece of the Fluid 100 Watercolor paper and the Stitched Rectangle dies to cut out the image that will be placed on front.  I stamped all the images in Stazon Jet Black ink and let it dry.  Once it was dry I could watercolor the images.  I used a aqua painter and water colored the images using Smoky Slate, Balmy blue, Pool Party, Blueberry Bushel, Pumpkin Pie and Poppy Parade.  I just squeezed my ink pads to put ink in the top to use as a pallet.  Once I had everything colored and it had died I wrapped the Poppy Parade twine around and secured to the card front using dimensionals.  I then took about four inches or so of extra twine and tied a knot around the one that I wrapped I let a few inches hang down.  I added a knot on the other end and pulled the twine apart so it was just the threads hanging.  

I added a little of the stripped Washi tape from the Follow your art washi tape collection.  I stamped the sentiment in Basic Gray ink and created a little banner and added it to the card front with dimensionals.  I then added a piece of whisper white to the inside.  

Thanks for dropping by today, I hope that you have a wonderful day.  You can find a full list of all the supplies used in the Shopping List below.
