AWOW Blog Hop - Sketch Challenge

 


Welcome to this month's Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop! This month my global colleagues and I are using a sketch as inspiration for our cards. I love using sketches as a kicking off point for my cards!

Here is the sketch we're using...


...and here is my card!


I used a combination of current and upcoming new products! The main products are from the Delicate Dreams Suite Collection from the March Online Exclusives. This includes the flowered DSP (Delicate Dreams 12x12 Specialty DSP), the plaid copper DSP (Delicate Designs 12x12 Specialty DSP) sentiment stamp (Delicate Wishes Stamp Set), the die-cut leaves (cut from Soft Sea Foam & Crumb Cake) and the stamped foliage inside the card, stamped in Secret Sea ink. 

The frame is cut with the Phrases & Frames Dies using the Earthen-Toned Metallic 12x12 Specialty Paper and I used the Impressions Plate to give it some depth! You will see the dies and plate in the May - August 2026 Catalogue and online on May 5th.


The card base is an upcoming new "In Color" called Hydrangea Hue. Isn't it a gorgeous colour?


The sentiment is stamped in Secret Sea ink on a label, also from the Phrases & Frames Dies. I cut a Vellum circle using the Stylish Shapes Dies to back the label. 

I finished with 3 copper gems from the Adhesive-Backed Metallic Gems.
