Week 15 Cajun Craze - Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello everyone, and welcome. I'm back from a lovely weeks holiday in Singapore where the weather was just perfect. So I missed out on making a card for the Bubble Bath week, sorry about that. But here we are at week 15 with Cajun Craze. This is a funny colour to work with for me but I did enjoy making this one. Using some of the nice new products from the annual catalogue. 

I started with a Cajun Craze card base and added a Garden Green layer to the front and the some Basic White that I cut into panels and arranged haphazardly. I then had a play with the new Layers of Beauty Masks. I used Pumpkin Pie, Calypso Coral and Cajun Craze for my roses and Garden Green and Old Olive for the leaves. They turned out just lovely in these colours.

I then added a sentiment tag along the bottom of the card front, in Cajun Craze and Basic White stamping in Cajun Craze from the Country Birdhouse Stamp set. Finishing off the front of the card with the online exclusive sequins. I kept the inside of my card plain and simple as always, using a Garden Green layer and Basic white. I stamped the small flower from the Layers of Beauty bundle and the Happy Birthday from the Unbounded Love bundle. I coloured the flower using the blends so that it would match the front of the card.

All the items used in this project can be found in the 2024-25 annual catalogue and the online Exclusive section of the web site. If you would like to know more about these product of any others please feel free to contact me.

Week 15 2023-24 Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Cajun Craze

 

Hello and welcome to week 15 of the colour creations Blog-Hop, this week we are featuring the colour called Cajun Craze. This is a lovely bright rusty colour and really is a colour I like. So I wanted to make a male card and another of my Fancy folds. This one being a Multi Fold card.

 

Another 7x5inch card (17.8 x 12.7cm) So looking for something male I used the DSP called Delightfully Eclectic and I thought these look like Pretzels and would go really well with the Brewed for You bundle.  So I started with a Petal Pink Card base. I then added the Cajun Craze and pretzel layers to each section of the card. I Stamped the beer steins and glasses as well as the froth. I used the Cajun Craze ink to full the glasses so that it looked like ale. I attached them to the front of the card using dimensionals. Stamping the sentiment from the same set I punched out layers using the Happy Labels Pick a Punch. and finishing off the front with one of the 2023-25 in Colour Dots. 

I added writing panels to the back of the card and stamped some more steins and the Oh Ale Yes. This card will fold flat for posting and I think that if I had made it smaller it would have lost something along the way.  All the items used in this project are in the 2023-24 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue. If you would like to know more about these product or the card it's self, please feel free to contact me either by email, Phone or PM so that I can help you.

Week 11 Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Cajun Craze

 

Hi and Welcome to week 11 of the Colour Creation Blog-Hop. This week our colour is Cajun Craze, This colour is part of the Regals Collection. A lovely rusty brown. I have chosen to use only a 2 colour palette with week, so here is my card.

Using Cajun Craze for my base card I paired it with Garden Green. I used only one Bundle and that is the Artistically Inked. I stamped the Background to form my own DSP giving a marbled effect. I then stamped the flower and leaves to add to the front of the card. along with the sentiment. Finishing off the with the Iridescent Gems. This is what is called a Faux Stepper Card as the card is not cut form the step, it is placed over the top.

My insert is as always very plain with just the sentiment and a small amount of the marbled effect on one side. I'm nut sure who will be getting this card as the present time.

All the items used in this project can be found in the 2022-2023 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue. If you would like to know more about this fold or the items used please feel free to give me a Call, Email or PM so that I can help you.

Week 8 Colour Creations Blog-Hop Cajun Craze

 

Hello Everyone and welcome to week 8 of the Art with Heart Colour Creations Blog-hop. This week our feature colour is Cajun Craze a real rusty brown colour and one I really struggle with. Not my favourite colour by any means, but it's nice to get out of your comfort zone and use colours your fond of. 

So here we are I started my card using a Very Vanilla base and added Early Espresso before layering with In Good Taste DSP. I then used the dies from the Stitched Leaves set that also coordinates with the Love of Leaves Stamp Set to cut my leaves in Cajun Craze card. I cut out 5 leaves in all and place 4 of them on the front of the card that I attached with dimensionals. I then stamped my sentiment from the Love of Leaves stamp set and again mounted this with dimensionals, I finished the front by colouring 3 basic pearls using the Dark Cajun Craze Blends pen.

The inside of my card was also layered using Early Espresso and then another Very Vanilla layer. I stamped my sentiment using Cajun Craze ink and then added the last leaf that I had cut out to the top left-hand corner of the insert. All the items used in the project can be found in the 2021-2022 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue, if you would like to purchase any or all of these items please feel free to give me a Call, Email or PM so that I might help you with your purchase.

Week 7 Colour Creations Showcase - Cajun Craze

Week 7 - Cajun Craze

 

Hello and welcome to week 7 of the "Art with Heart" Colour Creations Showcase. This week our colour is Cajun Craze, this is a very rich golden brown colour and part of the Regals collection.

This week I thought I would do something a little different so I decided to create a small gift box and matching Thank You card.

 

Using only Cajun Craze and Very Vanilla card stock. My little box is 4 x 3 inches (7.6 x 10.2)cm in size and the card is the same size. I used the dies from the So Sentimental bundle along with the dies from the Ornate Garden bundle to create the box and Card. and finished the top of the box off with a little white ribbon that I coloured using the Ivory Blender pen. the champagne Rhinestones just set off the top of the card as well as show where to open the box.

 

Once you open the box you can see that it will hold 4 small chocolate just nicely. I think this would make a lovely little gift set for someone who you wish to thank or is feeling a little under the weather. 

All the items used in this project can be found in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue (except for the Chocolate) if you would like to purchase these product please give me a call email or PM me so that I might help you with your purchase.
