WOO HOO! The card we are CASE-ing is the card I selected for this week's sketch challenge. As a member of the CASE-ing Tuesday Bloggers Team we get to search through the Mini Holiday Catalog and select a card that not only challenges us, but also helps inspire us.
The card I selected from the Mini Holiday Catalog can be found on page 32. I fell in love with all the colors and the unique design.
Here are the card measurements. I added a few extra layers to the circle by using the Layering Circles Dies. I also added an extra measurement that isn't noted above. I cut two DSP layers that measure 4" x 1-1/4" and placed them behind the 4" x 1" DSP layer. This made it easier to adhere to the card base.
Did any of you order the From The North Pole Paper Pumpkin Kit this month? If so, you probably saw this paper insert when you first opened your box. I love the colors that were used on the example project image for the North Pole Sacks Add-On. Sometimes you can find inspiration in places when you least expect it.
Here's a look at my card and the paper insert side by side. They are similar but not alike.
