Week 5 - Summer Splash Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello All, and welcome to week 5 of the colour creations Blog-Hop. Our feature colour this week is the last of the new 2024-26 Incolor group of colours. It's called Summer Splash, this is a really pretty sea green colour and I love it.  I wanted to do something simple yet affective and this is what I came up with.

 Starting with a Summer Splash card base I added a Basic White layer that I embossed using the So Swirly Folder (I'm loving this folder as well). Then I added a DSP layer for the Incolour pack in Summer Splash. I used the striped side. I added the Burlap Ribbon from the Latte Love Suite across the centre. I added a small banner to the left-hand side that I stamped my message onto. Then I stamped the Shopping bags from the Attention Shoppers Bundle onto the DSP and also onto Basic White. I cut out the bags from the DSP and coloured to top section of the white bags and then glued the DSP versions over the top. I attached these to the front of my card and finished off with the lovely matching Shimmer gems.

Keeping the inside of my card simple I stamped a Basic White piece of card with my message and 2 pot plants from the same bundle. All my stamping was done with Memento and Summer Splash ink and my colouring with blends in Old Olive, Summer Splash, Cajun Craze, Fresh Freesia, Poppy Parade, & Flirty Flamingo. This is a really happy card.  All the items used in this project can be found in the 2024-25 Annual Catalogue or in the online exclusives.

Week 4 - Shy Shamrock Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello and welcome to week 4 for the Art with Heart Colour Creations Blog-Hop. If you are new here. our group feature all the colours of the Stampin' Up! Rainbow, in alphabetical order (except for the New incolours) These are featured first.  So here we are with Shy Shamrock. This is a very pretty green. But I did struggle a little to come up with a card for this week.

So for me I started with a Shy Shamrock card base and added a Mossy Meadow layer. Then I stamped the Leaf Collection stamp onto Basic White with Shy Shamrock ink. I then stamped the same stamp onto some more Basic White in Mossy Meadow and then fussy cut out some of the leaves. I layered these on top and added a sentiment from the Unbounded Love Bundle Using the frame dies I cut out the 1st in Mossy Meadow and the other in Basic White. Stamping in Shy Shamrock. I finished off the front of the card with a Bakers Twine bow and the very pretty 2024-26 Incolour Shimmer Gems .

I wanted to jazz up the inside of my card a little more than I usually do, so I stamped the teapot and fern from the Country Flowers Bundle and used the Shy Shamrock and Crumb Cake blends to colour in with. Then Sentiment on the inside is from the same set. I layered this onto another piece of Mossy Meadow to co-ordinate with the front of the card.

All the items used in this project can be found in the New 2024-25 Annual Catalogue. If you would like to know more about these product please feel free to contact me.

Week 3 - Pretty in Pink Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello and welcome to week 3 of the colour creations Blog-Hop. This week we are featuring Pretty in Pink. This is one of the 2024-26 Incolors and I think this is a really lovely pink. I have chosen to make a card for the Tradie Ladies, and am so happy with how it turned out. 

 I started with a Pretty in Pink card base, and added a Misty Moonlight layer followed by the DSP called Country Woods. I then cut out the peg board from the Trusty Tools bundle and cut this into sections and layered onto so more Misty Moonlight card stock. I then stamped some of the tools from the same set and coloured them with my Pretty in Pink Blends. using the dies to cut them out I then arranged the peg board and tools some glued flat to the card and other on dimensionals. I finished off the front of the card with a sentiment from the same set and the new Incolor Resin Dots.

For the insert I layered my Basic white onto Misty Moonlight card after stamping. I stamped the Paint Brush top and bottom of the page and coloured with Pretty in Pink ink. I stamped my sentiment from the Unbounded Love stamp set. 

All the items used in my project this week can be found in the 2024-25 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue. If you would like to know more about these product please feel free to contact me so that I might help you.

Week 2 - Petunia Pop Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello and welcome, Sorry I couldn't join you all last week for the start, as I was away. But here I am with week 2. So this week we are featuring another of the 2024-2026 Incolor range called Petunia Pop. I love this colour I can see me using it quite a bit.

For me I wanted to do a project that would also feature the new Bundle called Hearts & Hugs. This is such a cute bundle. So I used the arms stretched hamster.

This is called a Pull Tab card. such a lovely idea. Starting with a Petunia Pop Card base I then added a Melon Mambo layer. I then cut a slit into my DSP so that I could make the pull tab. Then attaching my image to the end of the tab, and ribbon to the other end. placing dimensionals on the back of the DSP so that the tab will move.

Once you pull the tab you can see the message underneath. I am loving this style of card and have made a few already for my Facebook group and YOUTUBE channel. I couldn't believe how easy it was to make. 

 


I followed the theme over to the inside of the card with another Hamster leaving plenty of room for writing a message as well. I coloured both the Hamster using Crumb Cake blends. This is what I would call a happy card.

All the items used in this project can be found in the New 2024-25 Annual Catalogue that went live on the 1st May 2024. I'm looking forward to being able to show more of the new product and some of the carrying over product over the coming weeks - Months. If you would like to know more about these product or my card design please feel free to contact me.
