Week 5 Art With Heart Colour Creations Weekly Showcase Blushing Bride

Hello to all the lovely stampers out there! Welcome to Week 5 with the Art With Heart Colour Creations weekly Showcase which the lovely Catherine Proctor is running our weekly blog and with a selection of other Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from the Art With Heart Team. This week we are featuring Blushing Bride and I hope we will inspire you with our creations of this beautiful colour.

Blushing Bride is from the Subtles Collection and comes in a range of Stampin' Up! products from the Classic Stampin' Pad, Cardstock, DSP and more. 

I do love pink, so mixing Blushing Bride with Rococo Rose and Gray Granite was an easy choice for me as I love this combination of colours together. I've used a new stamp set from my latest Stampin' Up! order it's called Fancy Phrases, I love the different greetings and the hand drawn stamp images in the set. The shading of the images makes colouring in easy. 

I've stamped the image in Gray Granite, using a Blender Pen, coloured Ink and a Clear Block as shown below. I can then add ink to paper by adding a little ink as I go until I'm happy with the shading. The stamped images have been fussy cut out.

Using a panel of Blushing Bride Cardstock, I've stamped the smaller flower image randomly in Blushing Bride ink onto the Cardstock and embossed the panel with the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder. This Embossing Folder gives an antique look to the card and I like to ruff up the edges with the Paper Snips.

The new Meadow Moments Embossing Folder is a smaller size, I've used a piece of Whisper White Cardstock and ran it through the Die Cutting Machine. Using a Sponge Dauber and Blushing Bride Ink, I've softly added ink to the raised up edges. 

A few more added layers to the card is a strip of Blushing Bride Subtles 6"x 6" DSP and the Flowers for every season Ribbon in Whisper White. I like to fray the edges of the ribbon for a little something different.

Adhere the layers onto the Brushing Bride card base with your preferred adhesive and for the sentiment I've added Stampin' Dimensionals. To finish off the card, I've added 3 of the Pearl Basic Jewels.
