CASEing Kelly Blog Hop

Tuesday, October 27, 2015

Hello everyone,

You should be coming to my blog from Deepti Malik. After visiting me, hop over to Elizabeth Campau next! The blog hop list is at the bottom of this post along with the list of sponsors. If you want to check out Kelly's blog, please go over and see all her beautiful cards.

I am here celebrating Kelly. She is the CASEing Genius when it comes to caseing cards. In Kelly’s CASEing Genius blog, she takes THREE cards from a designer and makes ONE card inspired by the three cards. A bunch of us are crafters who love making cards we want to say “thank you” Kelly for all your generosity, talent and kindheartedness. I have to say I was a little intimidated when I was looking at your cards. I was thinking to myself, "how can I case Kelly's cards". Well I came up with a design and pretty happy with it. I have just started playing around with watercolor and it is fun and I loved all of your inspiration.

Here are a few of the cards that inspired me to make my card.

I loved the lines of watercolor on this card and I loved how the word blended into the colors.

Here I liked the watercolor with the distressed ink to look like bubbles.

A card is not finished unless it has sequins on it.

And here is my card that I made! This is an A2 card. I loved the rainbow colors so I used several colors on my card. The bubbles on the second card inspired the stitched circles that I popped up. I added some sequins to match the colors and finished the card with a script birthday sentiment similar to the sentiments Kelly used. Very clean and simple.
