Week 38 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Parakeet Party

 


Hello and welcome to week 38 of the colour creations blog-hop. This week our feature colour is Parakeet Party. This is one of the 2022-2024 Incolours, and it will be finishing up it's stay with us in April this year. Although green is my favourite colour I couldn't take to this one very much. So I have found it hard to work with. But I decided to team it up with Night of Navy and I really like how these two colours work together.

I used the Parakeet Party for my card base and added the night of navy layer. I then embossed a white layer using the Layered Floral 3d Folder. I placed the parakeet party ink pad onto the white card to highlight some of the raised image.  I then made my Faux Pinwheel using the DSP from the Countryside Inn pack. Picking up on the Night of Navy, and finishing off the centre with the flower form the Paper Florist die set. 

I carried over the layering on the inside of the card and did all of my stamping in Parakeet Party. The stamp set used for the sentiments is from the Pansy Patch set.

All the items used in this project can be found in the 2023-24 Annual Catalogue and the 2024 Jan-April Mini Catalogue. If you would like to know more about this design or the items used please feel free to contact me via email or text.

Week 37 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Orchid Oasis

 


Hello and welcome to week 37 of the colour creations Blog-Hop. This week our feature colour is Orchid Oasis, This is part of the 22-24 In Colour Range So it will be ending soon. But until then lets see what I have made.

I Decided to use some of the product from the Sale-a-bration range Called Jungle Pals. This is a Multi Layered Card, and I think it came together just right.

I started with an Orchid Oasis card base and added a Very Vanilla layer and the more Orchid Oasis and so on as you can see. When I got to the DSP layer I couldn't find anything that I liked to go with it so I stamped the bird with tone on tone. before going on the other layers. Finishing off the front of the card with the brushed bronze metallic dots.

Only stamping Just for you on the front and nothing on the inside makes this card easy to you for many occasions.

Just placing another of the toucan's on the inside of the card. This one I coloured in black. All these items are available during Sale-a-brations and until the end of the Annual Catalogue. So if you would like to purchase any of them you will have to get in before that all go.

Please feel free to contact me if you wish to know more about these product or the lay out used for this card.

Week 36 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Old Olive

 


Hello and welcome to week 36 of the colour creations blog-hop. This week our feature colour is Old Olive. It's a lovely green and as you would know if following the blog green is my favourite colour. So I really didn't have much of an issue working with it. But I chose to pair it with Crushed Curry. and they are the only colours that I used.

So I started my card using a Crushed Curry card base and added the Old Olive layer. Using the DSP from the Sale-a-brations catalogue as the next layer. I then stamped all of my tools for the lovely Trusty Tools Bundle that is in the 2024 Jan-April Mini Catalogue. (so great to see a lovely male stamp set) I then coloured the handles on the Hammers and Spanners using the Old Olive blends. Stamping the Centre of the tape measures and the sentiment tabs in Old Olive. Adding a couple of silver spanners as well to finish off the front of the card along with some Iridescent Rhinestones.

This card design is called a 3 Towers card and I think that the male theme really works well on it. I'm really loving this set and have used it many times already and can see it being used even more. To finish the card I also added a writing panel to the back so you have somewhere to write your message.

This card is a larger card 7x5 inches, but I have also done this in the smaller size that also look as impressive. If you would like to know more about this design or the products used please feel free to contact me.
