Around the World On Wednesday Blog Hop-July 2025- Tic Tac Toe and CASE with Gallery Blooms

Hello and welcome! I am Theresa McEntee, creator of Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts. Today I have the pleasure of participating in the Blog Hop with Around the World on Wednesday (AWOW).


2025 marks a special milestone. We are celebrating 5 fabulous years of creative inspiration together! In order to honor the occasion, we are CASEing (Copy and Selectively Editing) one of our talented members each month. This month we are happy to focus on Aurélie Fabre.

The AWOW team put together a thematic hop to give you some inspiration for your own crafting. Tic Tac Toe is this month’s theme.

I chose shadow, circle and texture from the Tic Tac Toe. Aurélie’s style is know for texture, techniques and layers. This made creating a card to CASE hers loads of fun!

My Project for today

This card was made using the Gallery Blooms stamp set and Dies. I used the Stampin’ Blends in: Secret Sea, Cloud Cover, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Pecan Pie, Calypso Coral and Peach Pie.

The leaves and flowers are die cut with the Gallery Bloom Dies from the Beautiful Gallery DSP.

The Pecan Pie cardstock circle is die cut with the Spotlight on Nature Dies.

The vintage-style is created by using a Sponge Dauber to apply Pecan Pie Ink to the edges of the DSP on each panel.

Hello, my name is Theresa. I have 4 children and a wonderful husband of 32 years. I am a retired Family Physician. I love having time now to create and craft, so much so that I became a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. I have been a demonstrator more than 8 years and am having a blast! Not only do I get to craft, I meet new friends from all over the world! Crafting gives me something positive to do and to share with others. I love to have my monthly Zoom Card Making Classes so others can craft with me. I have so much fun creating the cards for others to make! My blog was initially geared toward the beginner stamper in order to help others get started stamping on their own at home. If you need information to get started, look for my first blogs. My more recent posts have been cards and projects for Blog Hops and challenges. Stop by to see my projects and those of folks from around the world! Add more creativity to your life today!

  1. What a delightful project Theresa …. I hadn’t seen this card of Aurélies, but I love it. And it is just as gorgeous with the Beautiful Gallery bundle!

  2. HOLY moly!!! This project is STUNNING. It might be the win of the hop (although I haven’t hopped through all the way yet). WOW Theresa!!

  3. Oh. My. GOSH! This is stunning. And inspiring. I am usually the last one to try some of these fun folds but I think I’ll put this one on the to do list for a coming stamp session.

  4. Exactly!
    My project was in metric but it easily fits in Imperial (4“ for the three panels and 2” for the secondary folds). Anyway, I love what you’ve done with Gallery Bloom and I think the set lends itself very well to this type of card!
    As someone who doesn’t follow folded cards, I find it amusing that it was precisely this type of card that inspired you. In any case, thank you so much, it gives me ideas xx

  5. WOW! Just WOW! Great fold but your attention to detail and the way you’ve lovingly built up the floral clusters is just magnificent. 🙂
