Awow Blog Hop – Tic-Tac -Toe Challenge

Hello and welcome to the Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop and especially to my little corner of the world in Melbourne. On the second Wednesday of each month a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from Around the World share inspiration focused on a theme and take you on a trip around the world.

We continue our 5th anniversary celebrations as we CASE our fellow team members. For our fourth month, we are CAS(e)ing our French team member, Aurélie Fabre. I’ve always admired Aurelie’s beautiful work which is elegant with lots of layers and texture and incorporates a range of techniques – especially colouring techniques which I love.

To add a further twist to our hop we also have a Tic-Tac-Toe grid to incorporate into our CASEd project. I selected Circle, Line and Repeat but you will probably notice elements from other squares that have popped onto my card.

I started with the rectangle die cut using the Textured Notes Dies which replaced the tag. This was die cut from the Turtle-y Awesome Designer Series Paper which has repeated lines. That covered 2 of my categories of repeat and lines. Aurelie’s projects generally have some background stamping or technique on it and I depicted this by stamping some leaves from the Textured Notes stamp set in Soft Sea Foam ink. Technically, these were repeatedly stamped as well!

I added 1 larger and 2 smaller circles from the Unbounded Beauty Dies and embellished each one. On the largest, I added several die cut leaves from the Gallery Blooms Dies. On top, I added a bee hive which was fussy cut from the Turtle-y Cute Designer Series Paper.

Aurelie also adds beautifully placed metallic features on her card and I just couldn’t resist adding some of the Metallic Textures Rub-Ons which are a favourite of mine. Some Bee Trinkets and Linen Thread complete my CASE.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by my blog and I hope you have been inspired by my creation. Please continue on our hop to see Cheryll Miller’s stunning project by clicking on the Next Blog button below.
