Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop - Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge

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

Each month a wonderful group of creatives get together to share projects with a theme. Below is an image of the crew and where we live around the world.

This month was are creating using Tic-Tac-Toe whilst CASeing one of our fellow team members. We are CASeing the amazing Aurélie Fabre.

I started my project by selecting the Suite I wanted to use.  The Painterly Pears suite had just arrived and I was eager to use it. 

 I perused Aurélies' amazing work and found the image below. It was the perfect project for this CASe. 

Don't you love her stunning card!

I went with Metallic, Line and Bright from the image above.

My card base and matt layer are Basic White card stock. I used Darling Duckling ink and a Blending Brush to create colour behind the die cut pieces on the matt layer. I adhered this to the card base using glue.

I die cut three pears, their stems and three of the pink flower sprays. I die cut some of the small flowers in Basic White card stock and some leaves in Mossy Meadow card stock. I arranged them on the card front and used glue to adhere to the matt layer.

The sentiment was Heat Embossed in White on Mossy Meadow card stock and cut out using the die from the bundle. A length of the beautiful Mossy Meadow & Gold ribbon was cut to go under the sentiment and adhered to the bottom right using Dimensionals. The final touch was adhering six of the Old Olive Sparkle Dots around the central image.
