WCC16 --- A CASE from the new Occasions Catalogue

Welcome to another Watercooler Challenge.  This time our challenge is to CASE a project from the new Occasions Catalogue.  You will find the original from which I took my inspiration on page 7.

I like having a base for my card and so, instead of the Adventure Bound Designer Paper going all the way to the edges of the front, I chose to use a base of Smoky Slate on which to mount it.  I also decided that it would look better to sponge around the perimeter of the Designer Paper and so I used black ink for that purpose.

You'll also see that my lumberjack is wearing a Tangerine Twist shirt and has a light brown beard rather than a reddish one.  I've also used one of the Essentials Wooden Basics Elements instead of a button.


I had fun creating my project for the challenge.  I invite you to join us by using our InLinkz to submit your own CASE of the Occasions Catalogue.

  2. Heidi, love this card. Cutting out the lumberjack would be more than I could manage. He is gorgeous!

    1. Thank you very much, Jackie. I have a habit of fussy-cutting a lot for my cards and this guy wasn't very difficult compared to the "shudder" fern I cut out for my blog hop project.

    1. Thanks so much, Susan. I got the set even though I don't usually get a lot of Valentine sets. Ken used to be in management in Forestry back in British Columbia. He's changed careers here in Alberta but this set will give me a few years of fun cards for him. I've already mixed and matched the set with others (the saw is great fun!)

    2. Great Card, I need to borrow this set from my daughter and try making a few cards with it.
