Hi! Is it just me, or did this weekend go by super quickly? I had a busy day yesterday, sewing the backing for a quilt for my son, Alex. It's all packed up, ready to go off to the quilter now. Today I decided to have a lovely relaxing day reading on the lounge. So relaxing, the I nearly forgot to write this blog post! I've started it with 40 minutes until it is due to go live. Oops! This week the CASEing The Catty Sunday Challenge are looking at the Punch Bundles section of the Annual Catalogue, which is on pages 168 and 169. I settled on this gorgeous floral card fro the bottom of page 169. My friend, Rachel Palmieri has made a few cards lately with the Bloom and Grow bundle, which had me itching to pay with mine again. This was the perfect opportunity. I started with a Thick Whisper White card base, and used my paper trimmer to score two lines at the top and bottom of the card. I then used a blending brush to apply some Pool Party ink to the space in between, but only in the centre, under where the flowers were going to sit. The flowers were colour with Stampin' Blends, but just straight colouring. I wasn't in the mood for fancy blending, so I didn't! I used Purple Posy, Petal Pink, Highland Heather, Pear Pizzaz and So Saffron, and then went around the edge with Pool Party. I went for softer colours than I usually use, but I really liked how it turned out. A bit of Champagne Foil and some Champagne Rhinestones finished off the front. I stamped and coloured the inside of the card at the same time as I coloured the front. I realised about half way through that the alcohol ink would probably show through to the back. Thankfully my decision to use straight colours rather than blending meant that the ink didn't bleed though. Phew! Our challenge is hosted through our Facebook group. It's easy to join, and then you can add your photo to the group for the week's challenge. That's all from me tonight. I have about 50 pages left in my book, so I'm off to finish that! But I'd love for you to finish the Blog Hop, starting with the wonderful Peta. She's been in Christmas card mode! I wonder what Marvi thinks of that? Bye for now, Tina
