AWOW Blog Hop - Tic Tac Toe

 



Welcome to this month's Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop! We are celebrating our 5 year anniversary with a series of "team member focus" blog hops where we are CAS(e)ing a different team member each blog hop. Our team member focus this month is the fabulous Aurélie Fabre!


Our theme this month is Tic Tac Toe. We chose a line from the following and I chose texture, line and bold.


I was inspired by Aurélie Fabre's card here which has texture, lines and a bold black & white colour scheme with a touch of gold.


My card is much simpler but still has the texture from the brand new Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder, the lines from the Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder on the Basic Black strip, and the black & white colour scheme with a touch of gold!


The flower and the "hello" were die cut using the Circle of Season Dies, available to Paper Pumpkin subscribers, in Gold Foil and Basic White Cardstock. I cut three layers of the "hello" and glued them together to give it some depth.

I dragged a Memento Tuxedo Black ink pad across the Basic White layer which had been embossed with the sunflowers.


I topped off the gold flower with a Neutral Matte Dot in black!


Please enjoy hopping around below and you can click on the daisy to go to the next blog post by my very talented colleague, Teri West!

  3. This folding box is just beautiful... It would have been a shame to add too many layers. You've done well to keep it simple, effective and elegant! Thank you for choosing this project. I must admit I'm very fond of it, as it's the first series of projects I've done for this team. It's a bit like coming full circle, and I find it very moving!
    Thanks for sharing!
