Hello and welcome to the Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop for May. The 5 year celebrations continue for our crew and this month we are CASeing my lovely friend and fellow Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop member, Cheryll Miller.
I love Cheryll's creative expertise and have been huge fan of her work for many years. She is also a fellow Australian and I love catching up with her at our events. I feel very fortunate to call Cheryll a friend. There is always a lot of fun when we catch up.
there were so many wonderful projects to CASe when I looked through Cheryll's Blog. I decided to use my new Impressions Abloom Bundle and set about looking for something I could CASe. I love this card that Cheryll made and found it to be very elegant. I managed to make it work with my chosen bundle and used the Pressed Flowers Embossing Folder on the background as well as the coordinating stitched die cut oval.
I used similar colours to Cheryll's car as I love the freshness of them together. The card base is Blueberry Bushel with an Azure Afternoon mat layer. The embossed layer is Basic White as is the oval stitched piece that I glued down on top of the embossed layer.
I die cut the leaves and the blooms from Blueberry Bushel, Azure Afternoon and Old Olive card stock. They are just gorgeous die cut elements. Then I cut some leaves from Vellum. I stamped the sentiment in Blueberry Bushel ink on a piece of Basic White card stock and used Paper Snips to trim. I adhered all these pieces to the card front using glue. Then I adhered the sentiment layer on top using Dimensionals.
I tied a piece of Linen Thread in a double bow and glued it to the top of the blooms on the left hand side of the card. The final touch was three Azure Afternoon Adhesive Backed Dots.

Oh Leonie! I am so glad we are friends and get to catch up at crafting events ... the BEST! (I missed seeing you last time). And your card project is divine. It is so interesting to see what projects the AWOW designers choose to case. I love what you have done to make this project your own. Those very very cute little blue flowers make me smile. Thank you so much. Big hugs.
ReplyDeleteWow! I love that colour combo! I’ll definitely be trying those together myself. Beautiful! Thanks, Leonie!
ReplyDeletevery nice card Leonie! I love the way you've used the white overlay, changing the textures and volume to create your card. And the shades are very fresh, which I think is perfect for spring! Thanks for sharing! xx
