Tonight I am joining some fellow demonstrators on a Christmas blog hop. We aim to bring you Christmas inspiration every Monday evening right through to Mid December!
You may have found me via Caroline Manwaring's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome!
For my card today, I CASED a card from the mini catalogue. I was short on time with the kids at home, doing online schooling and juggling many other things all at the same time.
Here's the card I cased (from the July - December 2021 mini catalogue, page 8 ©2021 Stampin' Up!®.)
and my version:
I choose coloured "cookies" for my wire cooling rack and fussy cut them out as I didn't purchase the stamp gingerbread dies and placed basic rhinestone jewels in the centre of each cookie to mimic silver cachous/sprinkles. I raised the "Merriest Christmas" sticker (from the Memories and More card pack) on stampin' dimensionals for added interest. I also used watered down whisper white ink refill (and a paintbrush) to create splatters on my real red cardstock to mimic flour/icing sugar/royal icing.

I love the brightness of your card, Ros. Those cookies really pop against the Real Red background. Beautiful!

Great CASE Ros. Those ‘cake racks’ are fantastic. I love this suite and your cards are terrific.

You’ve created a lovely card Ros and love how you put your own twist for the wire rack and coloured iced cookies. Great idea with the white splatter to mimic icing sugar.

Your card is fabulous, Ros. I actually like your version better than the catalogue version. The splattered cardstock works so much better as a background than the DSP.

That is really cool Ros, I love that cooling rack! I hadn't even noticed this M&M pack, thanks for sharing, it's a great casing of the card!

Your cookies look fabulous, Ros and much nicer than the original. The border on your beautifully cut images make them look real!

Yummy, gorgeous iced ginger Christmas cookies. They look good enough to eat Ros. Love the vibrancy of Real Red on your card.
