Week 42 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Pretty Peacock

 


Hello and welcome to the Colour Creations Blog-Hop. This week our feature colour is Pretty Peacock. I love this colour it's so nice and yet it is a dark colour. I would call this colour a sort of greeny blue. Anyway I thought I would use the Ice Cream Swirl Bundle for this weeks project. So I started with a Pretty Peacock base card and added a Basic White layer and then a DSP layer using the Bright and Beautiful Paper. I then cut out the ice cream cone in Crumb Cake and using the same colour ink darkened the edges so that it looked more rounded. I then cut out the ice cream in Bubble Bath and Basic White to give the effect of a swirl in 2 flavours. Finishing off the ice cream with some strawberries. It looks so good I would love to eat it. I attached this to the front of the card using Dimensionals. along with my sentiment.


 I carried the Strawberry theme over to the inside of the card. I so love strawberries and I coloured these using my Real Red Blends. All the sentiment stamping was done in Pretty Peacock. I must say I really am loving this set, I think I will have to do a video of this card. What do you think?


 

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 these product or my card design please feel free to contact me.
