CASEing the Catty #532 - CASE An Project Featuring Animals

CASE A Project Featuring Animals meets Hugs & Healing

Hello, Welcome to Valley Inspirations with Andrea and #532 Challenge with CASEing the Catty.

I am so glad you have dropped by. You may have come from Rebecca Scurr, as you take this week’s Blog Hop or perhaps arrived directly here; either way I am delighted you are here. At the end of my blog, I have linked to Monique Fielder so you can continue with the Blog Hop.

At CASEing the Catty we love to use the samples from the Stampin' Up! Catalogues as inspiration and each week we have a different theme to guide our CASEing. To CASE is to "Copy And Selectively Edit" or some say "Copy And Share Everything". This week we are CASE-ing projects that feature animals. The card I CASED can be found on page 95 of the 2025-2026 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue.

Here is my card adjacent to the  card I CASEd in the Annual Catalogue

I have been time poor & not well so I decided to create a simple CASE of a card on page 95 - one with a line drawing of a little dog. I couldn’t resist using a different dog as the focal point. The Hugs & Healing stamp set include really cute images and as I only recently heard about a friends illness this image seemed perfect.

I coloured this cute little dog with Stampin’ Blends combos, ie Cloud Cover, Misty Moonlight, Crumb Cake and Secret Sea plus my trusty Colour Lifter. He was then fussy cut.

The card base is Basic Beige as is the panel spanning the card with the sentiment. A Basic White card-stock panel was layered on the front then a smaller piece of dappled Basic Beige DSP (from the coming Peaceful Garden DSP) was dry embossed with the Mini Corrugated Embossing Folder. This embossing folder is now on the “Last Chance List” so if you like it act quickly before it sells out.

Finishing touches included adding some Basic Beige paw prints, a little Secret Sea splattering, Secret Sea Faux Linen Ribbon and some Secret Sea In Colour Flat Pearls.

Thank you so much for calling in on your way around the Blog Hop for CASEing the Catty Challenge #532.
