Colour INKspiration Challenge #58

Hello and welcome to my card creation as guest designer for this Colour INKspiration Challenge for #CI58

The beautiful colours for this challenge are Blushing Bride, Crumb Cake, Whisper White and Gold. 

I love the photo they had chosen for the challenge especially the pink faux fur stool.

I decided to use the Bloom & Grow Bundle which is on page 131 in the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue.

I used one of the beautiful flower images and embossed it with Gold Embossing Powder onto Shimmery White Cardstock. With my Aqua Painter I water coloured the image in Blushing Bride and Crumb Cake. This set has coordinating Dies so no fussy cutting was needed. 

The sentiment was also Gold Embossed on Whisper White Cardstock and then I die cut the greeting out with the edge scalloped dies.

My favourite die at the moment is the Stitched Lace Die it’s so beautiful and delicate with the stitching. I used the edge die to form the scalloped boarders on either side. 

I just had to create another layer for my card, so I used the Tin Tile 3D Embossing Folder with Blushing Bride Cardstock and then I layered the Lace Die on top. I wound some Solid Baker’s Twine around the Lace Die, Tin Tile Cardstock and then attached to the base of Blushing Bride Cardstock.

I added some Stampin’ Dimensionals to make the flower images and greeting pop up from the card. For the final touch I added some Wink Of Stella onto the flowers to make them sparkle. 

Thank you for joining us today on the Colour INKspiration hop.

Stampin' Up! Week 54 Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop Seaside Spray

Hello and welcome back to my blog with the lovely ladies from Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop.

Today is week 54 and we are playing along with one of the new In-Colours called Seaside Spray for 2019-2021.

This new colour is available to purchase in Ink, Cardstock, Ribbon, DSP and much more. I’ve created a card and a Mini Shipping Box this week using the new In-colour.

I wanted to use the Daisy Lane Bundle for my card. The Bundle comes with the sweetest Medium Daisy Punch and I just love too layer it up with the larger Daisy Punch. 

I’ve punched it out twice with both Daisy Punches and I used the Sponge Dauber in Seaside Spray for the centre of the flower and Whisper White Ink for the ends. I just had to add some sparkle so I used Wink Of Stella and placed a Clear Facetted Gem for the centre. This gave the Daisy a frosted look.

Have you seen the beautiful Stitched Lace Die? It’s just stunning and I wanted to add a layer of lace to my card. 

To finish off the card I added the Seaside spray gingham DSP, I embossed the sentiment in white on a thin piece of Seaside Spray Cardstock and I wrapped the Silver Metallic Thread around the Cardstock.

I love the Daisy Punch so much I wanted to create something else with Seaside Spray. The cute Mini Shipping Boxes was something I thought would complement with the new In- colour. The box would make a lovely gift for that someone special. 

I punched out six of the Medium Daisies and two of the larger Daisies in Whisper White Cardstock. I sponged the Daisies in Seaside Spray Ink with the Sponged Dauber and placed a Clear Facetted Gem in the centre of each Daisy. 

I die cut out a piece of Seaside Spray Cardstock with the Stitched Lace Die 10cm x 5.5cm and placed it on the Mini Shipping Box. I used the Scalloped Linen Ribbon, wrapped it around the box and tied it at the top. 

To finish off I placed the three Daisies on the box. I think the colours go so nicely together and I’m really happy how it’s turned out.

Stampin' Up! Week 53 Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop Terracotta Tile

Hello and welcome back to my blog with the lovely ladies from Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop.

Today is week 53 and we are playing along with one of the new In-Colours called Terracotta Tile for 2019-2021.

This new colour is available to purchase in Ink, Cardstock, Ribbon, DSP and much more. I’ve created two cards this week using this colour.

For my first card that I’ve decided to use a stamp set that is from the Stampin’ Up! beginner brochure. Sometimes the Annual Catalogue can be a bit over whelming, but with this brochure we can help you with the basics like with stamps, kits, ink and a few more additional features. If you would like this brochure I would be more than happy to send you one.

The stamp set is called Magnolia Blooms which also coordinates with the Magnolia Lane cards & more which you can make quick and simple cards if you’re pressed for time.

I stamped the flower image in Jet Black Stazon Ink on Shimmery White Cardstock. I water coloured the image in using my Aqua Painter and Terracotta Tile Ink.

I cut the Terracotta Tile Scalloped Linen Thread in half as I only wanted a thin strip to run down the side of the cardstock. I just love making a bow out of the Linen Thread winding it around my fingers a couple of times to make a bow.

The gingham DSP is from the 6x6” In Colour which has 40 sheets in total, 4 each of 2 double sided designs in 5 In Colours. You can also purchase this paper in all the other colour collections too.

Now for my next card. I’ve used the Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder and embossed a sheet of Shimmery White Cardstock. 

I water coloured the Magnolias in Terracotta Tile, Old Olive, Smoky Slate and Basic Grey. For the background I used Smoky Slate to give the flowers some dimension.

The Congratulations is from the Magnolia Blooms Stamp Set and I stamped the greeting in Basic Grey. 

Thank you for visiting my latest blog and I hope you've enjoyed how I created these two cards using Terracotta Tile.

Stampin' Up! Week 52 Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop Pretty Peacock

Hello and welcome back to my blog with the lovely ladies from Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop.

Today is week 52 and we are playing along with one of the new In-Colours called Pretty Peacock for 2019-2021.

This new colour is available to purchase in Ink, Cardstock, Ribbon, DSP and much more. 

I’ve decided to use Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Gold with the new in colour for my card this week. I just love how the gold and these colours goes so nicely together.

I was so happy to see the Magical Mermaid Stamp Set in the new Annual Catalogue for 2019-2020. I just love to water colour and emboss the mermaid. I’ve used Shimmery White Cardstock and Gold Embossed her. Then with my Aqua Painter I’ve used Pretty Peacock ink for her tail. I’ve used my Blends in Petal Pink light for the skin and Daffodil Delight for the hair.

For the background I wanted to try out the Ink blending technique on Shimmery White Cardstock. Using the Stampin’ Sponges I blended the colours together starting with Pretty Peacock. This was so much fun! Then I splatted water onto the Cardstock which has created underwater bubbles. I really loved using this technique, I might try using different colours next time.

The gold scalloped look around the edge of the cardstock is using the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch. I think it gives a nice finish to the card.

For the gold seaweed I’ve used the Dies from the Bouquet Bunch and die cut them out using Gold Foil. To finish off the card I’ve gold embossed the greeting and placed a few sequins from the Iridescent Sequin Assortment. 

Thank you for visiting my latest blog and I hope you've enjoyed how I created my Pretty Peacock card.

Stampin' Up! Week 51 Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop Rococo Rose

Hello and welcome back to my blog with the lovely ladies from Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop.

Today is week 51 and we are playing along with one of the new In-Colours called Rococo Rose for 2019-2021. This new colour is available to purchase in Ink, Cardstock, Ribbon, DSP and much more. Isn’t it just beautiful? It’s a favourite of mine and I’ve used it with Early Espresso.  

In the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue which is available from me if you don't have one yet. I've used the Free As A Bird stamp set for my card. I stamped the image on Shimmery White Cardstock with Early Espresso Ink. With my Aqua Painter I carefully water coloured the bird and flowers in Rococo Rose. I've left some of the paper exposed to give some variation of the images. I used my snips to fussy cut out the bird, flowers and leaves which didn't take me long at all.

The greeting Hugs for you is from the May issue of the Paper Pumpkin – Hugs from Shelli kit which unfortunately has now sold out in Australia. At the time when I made this card it was still available to purchase. There are some lovely greetings in the Free As A Bird stamp set which you could also use.

I die cut the large die from the Stitched Labels as this gave the card a lace feel about it. I also used the tiny heart die which is just the sweetest. Both of the dies was cut with Shimmery White Cardstock and then I lightly brushed Rococo Rose Ink with my Aqua Painter. I then layered the everything together until I was happy with the layout.

For the card base I’ve used Rococo Rose Cardstock, 6” x 6” In-colour Designer Series Paper and the beautiful ½” Scalloped Linen Ribbon which are all available in this stunning colour.

Thank you for visiting my latest blog and I hope you've enjoyed how I created this Rococo Rose card. If you would like a new catalogue please send me a message.
