Hi everyone and welcome to this weeks CASEing the Catty Challenge.
CTC 148 is all about Kits and Memories and More – from either the Annual or Holiday catalogues.
I am a big fan of the kits that Stampin’ Up! produces. They come with absolutely everything you need – minus snail adhesive – to create stunning cards. Imagine creating 20 cards with everything at your fingertips – dimensionals, ribbons or twine, embellishments, stamp set, ink spots, even a basic clear block is included in selected kits. They are fully portable and packed in a gorgeous box, so you can even take them on holidays – its like having a travelling card class!
The kits have full colour pictures, easy directions and are perfect for the beginner card maker and the more advanced alike! The bonus for the beginner is that you have everything you need to begin creating right away! No one would ever know you have just started when you produce a card from one of these kits!
They’re also a great springboard to get your creativity flowing and give you ideas for creating more cards.
I decided this week to simply make up one of the kits I had sitting around in my craft room since I purchased it – The Soft Sayings Card Kit. I fell in love with the soft, watery backgrounds and gold embellishments, on page 10 of the Annual Catalogue.
I changed a few of the cards slightly when creating, but I mostly created them as they are supposed to be. Because sometimes even those of design teams like the creating to be done for them! Lol.
It only took 1 hour to create the 20 cards in this kit. Did you know you can even purchase a refill kit to make another 20 cards! I encourage you to give one a try!
Now its time to hop on over to Judy and see what has inspired her this week!
Happy Crafting everyone! Don’t forget to hop on over and join the Challenge! Just click on the link below!

Thanks for the wrap up on this kit Mel, including how long it takes. Great to know…. and yes, sometimes we like to just sit and craft too, don’t we!
