Hi everyone and welcome to CASEing Kelly Blog Hop. A little introduction. A year ago,
Kelly Latevola started this special series CASEing Genius where she featured paper crafters that inspired her and create a card based on the featured crafter's projects.
She featured me back in November 2014 and you can see her post on CASEing me
HERE. Kelly has always been so supportive and I love her generous spirit. So, today, as her CASEing Genius series is celebrating its 1st anniversary, Marika Rahtu & Nina Marie has kindly organized this blog hop as a thank you and a surprise for Kelly.
Each of us chose 3 of Kelly's cards and then we got to create a card based on the chosen 3 cards. Here's Kelly's cards that I love:
Hm... You know, how much I love critters, right? This card totally scream cuteness and her coloring is just fantastic!
As someone who loves clean and simple style, this card totally caught my eyes. The colors, the crisp design... perfection.
And, this one, I just think the coloring is so amazing. Her bright coloring of the owl & the leaves totally make this card pop.
The CASE:
So, for my card, I am inspired by Kelly's CAS style on these cards along with the bright coloring and make this bright, cheerful card that. The layout of the card with a border on the left reflect the design from card #2.
The use of white space is reflection of Kelly's card 1 and 2. And, the rest I think you could see it's totally inspired by card #3. This card is CAS, yet it also filled with so much color & brightness that I think capture the signature style of Kelly's cards.
Kelly, congratulations on CASEing Genius 1st anniversary! Here's to many more and thank you for all the amazing inspirations. From here please hop on to
