Around the World on Wednesday – March Blues Challenge

March 13, 2024 by Mikaela Titheridge 5 Comments

Today we go Around the World on Wednesday with a March Blues Challenge. This month we share everything Blue and I turn my hand to the Lovely & Sweet Bundle.

Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop including Mikaela Titheridge, UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

If you have arrived here from Aurélie, then I’m sure you’re feeling far from Blue. The wonderful inspiration you’ll have seen will have, I’m sure, lifted your spirits. I hope to inspire you further.

Shown in earthy tones in the catalogue, the Lovely & Sweet Stamp Set would be a great challenge to be seen in other colours.

Handmade Thank you Card made using March Blues and Lovely and Sweet by Stampin' Up!

Taking a Basic White Matting layer, I stamped a large sentiment, from the Kindest Expressions stamp set, centrally in Night of Navy. The same colour ink was used to randomly stamp the line drawn images of flowers around the outer edge of the mat layer. Other random images were stamped giving greater interest to this card front.

Handmade Thank you card using Lovely and Sweet by Stampin' Up!

Blending various shades of blue around the edge with a blending brush, helped pull together the mat layer to the card base. A Baker’s Twine bow was added to help complete this simple little card.

I hope you have enjoyed my share today and I hope you’ll hop around the world on Wednesday to see what the rest of the team have to share.

Next up on our hop around the world is my dear friend Annette. Be sure to pay her blog a visit.

Thank you for hopping by today. Enjoy!

    Nice Mikaela card! It’s amazing to think that there are three different blues on this card! And I love the mix of textured stamps! Bravo !

I may have been quieter than normal with my crafti I may have been quieter than normal with my crafting but I recently designed a series of cards for Die Cutting Essentials Magazine using the Fern & Flora Bundle by Stampin' Up!

I adore the botanical feel of these dies and what you can create with them. This wreath card screams whispy fresh air combined with richness, I just loved creating it. Would you welcome a botanical card like this for your birthday?
