Day 7 of the online CAS Card Making Class is entitled, Plainly White. Julie Ebersole demonstrated how to use the expanse of white space on a card to your advantage.
I made the flower accent this afternoon so tonight I decided to pop it onto a clean and simple card that demonstrated some of the techniques from day 7.
If you've been following my journey, you'll realise I have skipped a few days of class in my blog posts as I haven't had a lot of time to keep up with my 'homework' this week. The good thing is, I have access to it 'forever' and that's a relief because there are SO many more ideas and techniques that I want to play around with in the near future.
Not having done any crocheting for a few months, I went around to a friend's place and got another lesson today. I was a bit rusty but was able to get this little flower finished to pop on a card (Thanks Andrea :)
I found the pattern at Crochet and Other Stuff via Pinterest. The pattern is for a three layered flower but I only did two and used different colours.
Project Details:
Stamp Sets: Creative Elements, Precious Butterflies (both SU)
Card Stock: Confetti White (SU)
Ink: Old Olive, Marina Mist (SU)
Accessories: Moda Vera SOMBRE 100% Organic Cotton - Blue and Cream (Spotlight), 3 mm crochet hook, Mini Paper Blooms (Kaiser Craft), Dimensional
It was quite a productive day to combine two craft loves and actually use an idea from Pinterest!
PS: This was named as a CAS favourite for the week at Splitcoast Stampers. Thanks, ladies.

Plainly White
I used Confetti White Card Stock as it needed to match the off white colour in the flower.
