Hello and welcome,
My name is Vicki Boucher and I'm from Melbourne, Australia. Today, I'll be sharing with you the fifth colour of many blog hops. It's Week 5 of Colour Creations with the Art With Heart Team in Australia.
This week's colour is Wild Wheat which is part of the In Color Collection for 2023 - 2025. Stampin' Up! have created a colour which isn't normally my go to but use it with other colours that will complement it and you'll come up with an amazing project. I've used Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon, Cajun Craze and I just had to use the gorgeous More Dazzle Specialty Paper in Gold this time. Wild Wheat has a gold look about it and they go well together.
This card was inspired by a card Cindy Schuster made a long time ago using the Daisy Lane bundle for The Crafty Carrot Co and other now retired products. I really like the colours she used, so I decided to CASE it. I've used a few different tools for my card. I like to mix and match using different coloured cardstock with different dies. They are Cheerful Daisies Dies, Earthen Textures Dies and Paper Florist Dies.
The other elements I have used are a torn strip of Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper in Wild Wheat, Wild Wheat In Color Dots and Wild Wheat In Color Jute Trim which I have unraveled into three strands.
The background panel is dried embossed using Timber 3D Embossing Folder with Pretty Peacock cardstock and then I scored the embossed panel to give the impression of strips of wood.
