Around the World On Wednesday Blog Hop-June 2024- The Adventures of Benji with Submarine Life

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) organized by Angie McKenzie for the Adventures of Benji!

On the second Wednesday of each month, the AWOW team put together a thematic hop to give you some inspiration for your own crafting. The Adventures of Benji is this month’s theme.

Today’s hop is special because of Benji. Benji is Angie’s little Shih Tzu. He is her stamping and walking buddy. He is so full of personality! He will want Angie to carry him after a short walk, but he loves to run and play soccer! He also loves cheese, eggs, popcorn and anything with butter.

Angie promised Benji she would take him on a trip around the world- so here he goes!

First he is going to travel to the coast of California from where I am in Bisbee Arizona. He is going by submarine up to British Columbia Canada to visit Lori Wilcox. Hense, the inspiration for my card!

My Project for today

Before Benji could board the sub, the scene needed to be created. The Submarine Life Bundle is the perfect choice as there are many sea creatures so that Benji will have some friends to make along the way! This card has Craig the crab and Ollie the Octopus on the front panel.

On the inside panel are Gertrude the Guppy and her five little fishies- Gary, Geraldine, Glenda, George and Gregory. And don’t forget Sandy the Starfish!

Here is the template for this fun fold card. I hope you enjoyed the card and the story that went along with it!

To add a little Bling! I used the new 2024-26 In Color Shimmer Gems in Shaded Summer.

The AWOW Team

I am so glad you have joined me today in this worldwide hug that stretches all the way from Australia to Alaska across twelve different time zones. Each month this group of creative friends prepare a project for a theme. Below is an image of the whole crew and where they are from around the globe. Benji had quite the Adventure! And such a talented and wonderful group of people! You will want to visit everyone to be sure to see all the amazing projects!

We all love sharing joy with you through projects from our individual parts of the world. I hope that you will be filled with lots of inspiration from Benji’s Adventures. I know I sure was!

Around the World On Wednesday Blog Hop-May 2024- Sketch 106 Challenge with Spotlight on Nature

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) organized by Angie McKenzie. 

On the second Wednesday of each month, the AWOW team put together a thematic hop to give you some inspiration for your own crafting. Sketch 106 is this month’s challenge.

I turned the sketch around to fit my idea.

My Project for today

This card was made using the Spotlight on Nature Bundle. The stamp set is just beautiful. The dies are a series of layering circles with different borders.

I wanted to showcase the 2024-2026 In Color Designer Series Paper. For this card, each of the five new In Colors were chosen in a different pattern of the Designer Series Paper. The 2024-26 In Colors are: Pretty in Pink, Peach Pie, Shy Shamrock, Summer Splash and Petunia Pop.
