CASE-ing the Catty – Merry Mischief Bundle

Hi there,
Welcome to CASE-ing the Catty for this week.

This week we are CASE-ing from the September 2026 Online Exclusives Release. This release has a variety of products for your holiday season crafting.

The Merry Mischief Bundle arrived in my craft room this week, so I decided to have a little fun with the cute gnomes in this set. There are many extra dies in the set to complement the sweet images as well.

The first thing I noticed was the images are a lot larger than on the cover of the stamp set and dies, so they are not as fiddly to colour as you might think. I chose the gnome with the very tall hat because it is such a fun image. I coloured him with Real Red and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. On the jacket trim and hat, I added (retired) Dazzling Diamonds glitter using a Glue Pen for sparkle and Wink of Stella on his mustache and beard.

Next up, I cropped the elements for the toadstool and added some depth to the edges with sponge daubers. Once I had both the gnome and toadstool ready, I decided on a square card and dry embossed the top section with the Swirls of Magic Embossing Folder. I found the perfect Granny Apple Green paper for the ground from the Valley in Bloom DSP. The greeting from the (retired) Jolly Holly stamp set was stamped in Secret Sea ink and popped up next to the trunk of the toadstool. I added the art panel to a Real Red mat and then onto a Basic White card base.

For the inside I have a Real Red mat for the writing panel and a strip of the same Granny Apple Green print at the bottom. Another greeting from Jolly Holly was stamped in the centre. The gnome with the gift was coloured in the same shades as on the front of the card.
