The colours are just so serene and complimentary. I set about making a simple clean card using the Textured Notes Bundle and coordinating Designer Series Paper. I love the elements inked in Cajun Craze. A colour I do not use often enough.

The card base is Cajun Craze. A mat layer of Crumb Cake is underneath the Designer Series Paper layer. How beautiful is this DSP? I die cut a piece of Basic Beige card stock using one of the rectangular Textured Notes dies. I stamped the circular woven image in Crumb Cake ink on the left hand side of the Basic Beige piece. Then I stamped the smaller branches in Cajun Craze twice above the circular woven image and stamped the straight woven image in Cajun Craze to the right of the circular image so the sentiment piece would sit on top of it.

I stamped the large leaf image in Cajun Craze ink on Basic Beige card stock. I used my Water Painter to spread the ink on the filled in leaves. I let it dry and then fussy cut it. I wound some of the split Gold Twisted Thread around in a circle and adhered it on top of the circular woven image and adhered it to the card front using GlueDots™. I then adhered the fussy cut leaf image over the top using Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in VersaMark™ink on Cajun Craze card stock. Sprinkled with Gold Embossing Powder and set with the Heat Tool. I then trimmed it using my Trimmer. Then adhering the sentiment using Dimensionals. The final piece was adding the Tiny Bee Trinket to my card front.

I hope to have inspired you today. I also hope you will join us for one of these fun colour challenges. Have a great week!

Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop - Outside the Box

 

Hello and welcome to the Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop for June. 

This month we are CASeing the wonderful Mikaela Titheridge. Our fellow Team Member.  I love Mikaela's creations and look forward to hopping with her each month. As you can imagine there was so much inspiration to choose from when looking at Mikaela's projects. I started by looking at a bundle I wanted use, The Cheers & Sips Bundle. I love all products in this Suite for their fun and vibrant colours. I also decided to CASe one of Mikaela's Around the World on Wednesday creations.

I found the cutest card from her blog dated 15 December 2022. Using the Sweet Citrus stamp set and perfectly pairing it with the Nothings Better Than stamp set for such a sweet card. Also drink themed stamp sets! It was the best jumping off point for CASeing her card.  I had to think Outside the Box on how to use the larger elements and create a background with the coordinating products from this Suite.

I kept the base card in a yellow, Daffodil Delight. I used some Daffodil Delight ink to blend colour over the right hand side of the Daffodil Delight mat layer. Then I embossed the  right hand side of the mat layer with the cut glass embossing folder. I adhered the mat layer using Dimensionals.

I fussy cut the three glasses from the Celabratory Sip Designer Series Paper and adhered them over the top of the Embossed area of the mat layer. I tied a length of the gold ribbon in a knot and adhered it to the top of the glass on the right. Stamped the sentiment in Secret Sea ink on Basic White card stock, trimmed to size and adhered over the top of the ribbon using Dimensionals. Finishing my card with three of the Holographic Resin Dots around the glasses.

Up next on this month’s blog hop is the very talented Rochelle Laird- Smith.
