Week 9 2023-24 Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Pecan Pie

 

Hello and welcome to week 9 of the Art with Heart Colour Creations blog-hop. This week we are featuring the lovely Pecan Pie Colour which is a lovely rich brown colour, and part of the Neutrals Collection of colours. I really didn't know what I was going to create for this week and then I came across a lovely Bridge card that folds flat for posting and I thought I would give this one a try.

I really wanted to use the Little Monkey Bundle so I thought I would doing it with this style of card. I started with a Pecan Pie card base and added a Crumb Cake layer and the DSP from the Bright & Beautiful papers I chose the Blue paper as I thought it looked like the sky and it would go well with the monkeys fling through the air. So I stamped some branches onto Basic White and coloured them using my marker pens and I also stamped some onto the DSP colouring them as well. I cut out the 4 branches and added 3 to the front of the card across the bridge. I also cut out some of the bananas as well so that they are hanging in the trees. Finishing off with a sentiment tag from the stylish shapes dies and hanging a couple of monkeys from the trees.

from the side of the card you can see that the bridge section is a concertina fold so it will spring out once the card is removed from the envelope. I did also add some iridescent rhinestones to the finish off the front of the card. I also carried my theme over to the inside of the card. With another Monkey hanging from a branch. along with the words Little Monkey. I coloured all of my Monkeys with Pecan Pie and Crumb Cake. They are really very cute.

Week 8 2023-24 Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Lemon Lolly

 

 

Hello and welcome to week 8 of the Art with Heart Colour Creations Blog-Hop. This week our feature colour is another of the new colours called Lemon Lolly. What a beautiful bright Yellow and a really happy colour. Lemon Lolly is part of the Subtles collection. I have chosen a tri fold card to highlight this lovely colour today.

I started with a Lemon Lolly card base and added Granny Apple Green for a layer and then the DSP from the Bright a Beautiful papers. Even thought in the catalogue it doesn't list Lemon Lolly it does on the packaging of the DSP.  I used the Sweet Citrus Bundle for the fruit on the front and inside stamping the rind of the fruit using Lemon Line Twist and Lemon Lolly for the Flesh of the fruit. Finishing off the front of the card using the Stylish Shapes Dies for the tag and iridescent Rhinestones.

I also added more fruit to the inside of the card to carry the theme over. This is a really lovely Happy card, and I love the colour combo that I used.

I used the other side of the DSP for the middle section of the card. All the items used in this project can be found in the current 2023-24 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue.

Week 7 2023-24 Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Bubble Bath

 

Hello and welcome to week 7 of the Art with Heart Colour Creations Blog-Hop. This week we a featuring the lovely colour called Bubble Bath. This is a very pretty pink and I love it. I wanted to try a fancy fold that I hadn't made before so here it is.

 It doesn't look much when the card is closed, but when you open it all the magic is on the inside. So I started with a Bubble Bath card base and added Fresh Freesia layers before adding the DSP called Bright and Beautiful. I added a closer to the front with a magnet and stamped using the Artistically Inked Set. Finishing off with the beautiful Bubble Bath Ribbon and Iridescent Rhinestones.

 But as I said the magic happens when you open the card. You have a lovely little shopping bag on the inside that will hold a gift card or cash. You could also add a small gift as long as it's not to bulky. So I made my shopping bag from White copy paper and stamped it from the same stamp set. I added 2 ribbon handles using the same Sheer Ribbon in Bubble Bath. I also added layer to the right-hand side front and small piece on the left-hand side. I then stamped my Basic white layer for my writing panel.

 All the items used in this project can be found in the current 2023-24 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue. If you would like to know more about this fancy fold card or the products used please feel free to contact me via Phone, Email or PM.
