Hello and welcome to Week 20 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 Gray Granite in our projects it's a colour I like to use when creating a vintage style or masculine style in my projects. Gray Granite is part of the Neutrals Collection and comes in a range of Stampin' Up! products such as the Classic Stampin' Pad, Cardstock, DSP and more.

For my project I've used the Fancy Phrases and Free as a Bird Stamp Sets they mix well together. The images are stamped in black Stazon Ink onto Shimmery White Cardstock and water colouring both images using the Water Painters. Which I just love to use! The colours for the water colouring are Gray Granite, Rococo Rose and Balmy Blue.
Under the bird and flowers, I've used a medium size Stitched Nested Labels Die and sponged with a Dauber using Seaside Spray.
Gray Granite comes in a couple of different Designer Series Paper and I've used the Peony Garden DSP for my project.

There is a DSP sale on for the month of October 2020 and customers receive 15% off a selection of DSP. You can order as many as you like, so it's a great time to stock up on DSP from the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue and as well as the Mini August - December 2020 Catalogue. You can shop with me at my online store, link at the end of my blog.
I've used Gray Granite Cardstock for the card base and a panel of Whisper White to bring out the elements of white in the card. The sentiment is from the Free as a Bird Stamp Set and fussy cut out.
Thank you for visiting my blog with the Colour Creations Weekly Showcase and I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's projects.
