AWOW Blog Hop - Sketch Challenge

 

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 Chris Smith!

Chris shared some of her cards using her favourite sketches. This is her card that I used for inspiration!

I just loved her fall themed card and decided to adapt it to a Christmas card! Here is what I came up with!

I used the Elegant Pine Snowflakes Suite Collection, one of our Online Exclusives suites. The card base is Secret Sea with strips of Pretty Peacock. The flowers were die cut using our All Season Velvet 12" x 12" Specialty Paper and topped off with Faceted Snowflakes. The leaves were die cut from Old Olive.

I love how Chris had some of her leaves overhanging the card edge and trimmed off. I did the same with my flowers and leaves.

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!
