Week 13 Boho Blue - Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello and welcome to Week 13 of the Colour Creations Blog-Hop. our feature colour this week is yet another blue, called Boho Blue. Another pretty colour. I have chosen an old classic style for this card and once again using the Country Flowers Bundle. This set is really getting a workout.

I have made an Easel card, this one had a raised front rather than a stopper. I started with a Boho Blue card base and added Blueberry Bushel layer before added the Countryside Inn DSP layer. I added these same layers to the riser and main image section. I then added a Basic White layer to that section as well that I had embossed using the So Swirly Embossing Folder. I then stamped my Stool, Teapot and Flowers From the country Flowers Bundle. Coloured them all and cut them out. I attached all of these with dimensionals. Adding some more of the pretty little flowers and leave to add more interest to the card.

From an angle you can see how the card stand up.

I have kept the writing panel plain and simple as the front of the card says it all. So only have layers in Blueberry Bushel and Basic White. But stamping in Boho Blue.

All the items used in this project can be found in the 2024-25 Annual Catalogue. If you would like to purchase any of these item I would love to be able to help you. Please feel free to contact me.

I wont be Hopping along next week as I will be in Singapore, But I will be back ready for week 15.

Week 12 Blueberry Bushel - Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello and Welcome, wow here we are at the 1/4 way point. That's gone quick. This week we are featuring Blueberry Bushel. This is a mid blue colour and another colour that I tend to not use to much. I have levitated back towards the Country Flowers bundle and Country Woods DSP. I do really like these and they go together so well.

I used Wild Wheat card for my base and added a Blueberry Bushel layer, before added the Country Wood DSP layers. I had a small cut off of the same paper, turned it over and place this 2/3rd the way down the front. I then stamped and coloured the Stool, Teapot & Flowers from the Country Flower Bundle. Cutting them out and placing them onto the front of the card. I used the Unbounded Love bundle to stamp my sentiment and cut out the frames for it. Finishing off the front of the card with the Incolour Resin Dots.

The inside of my card is a little different. With have both sided decorated. This card is called a Double inside Pocket card. So I started with Blueberry Bushel layers and added the DSP on the right and then folding down the left-hand corners on 2 pieces to make pockets. I then attached these to the left-hand side of the card. I then make 2 small tags to go into the pocket with the same flower on them and a little message of encouragement on them. It a little different but I think you could do this for either male or female. I finished off the inside with a smaller piece of Basic White to write my message onto. All of these items are in the currant 2024-25 Annual Catalogue. If you would like to know more about these product please feel free to contact me.

Week 9 - Basic Gray Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello and welcome to week 9 of the Colour Creations Blog-Hop. This week our feature colour is Basic Gray. Not a colour I tend to use very much, but I dad find it easy to use for this weeks project.

This card is called a Double Fronted Cascade card and I think that Basic Gray suits this card very well. I started with a Basic Gray card base and added a smoky slate layer. I then used the DSP from the Country Woods collection. As I love this bundle I also used the Country Flowers Bundle. I used a Basic White layer for the inside of my card. 

I stamped the Teapot and flowers on the inside of the card and added my message. But I also stamped the same image again and added this to the next layer. I finished off all the layers with some of the pretty flowers and leaves from the dies. I added a Sentiment to the front of the card and used the Happy Labels punch. Finishing off the flowers with the Incolour Shimmer Gems in the centres. I like this card it's simple to make yet looks so effective. If you would like to know more about this project of the Items used please feel free to contact me. All the items used can be found in the 2024-25 Annual Catalogue.

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 47 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Soft Sea Foam

 

Hello and welcome to week 47 of the colour creations Blog-Hop. Only 3 more weeks to go and we have finished this years round. Wow that time has gone so quickly. This week we have Soft Sea Foam as our feature colour this is part of the Subtles Collection. and is very pretty light green. 

This week I wanted to do a pyramage style card, but I know that it is really hard to line up all the stamped images so I came up with the idea to make my topper first and then using the deckled rectangles I cut out the layers. I then cut the same rectangles onto plain card stock and glued each piece of the layer onto each rectangle. This way I had a solid base under each piece instead of a small piece with a hole in the centre.

I hope you can understand what I'm saying. I then layered each piece on top of each other using dimensionals. I love the way it turned out.

 I used the New Country Flowers Stamp set this I got at On Stage Melbourne (this will be in the New 2024-25 Annual Catalogue. Along with the New Leaf Collection Stamp and the Frames and Flowers DSP, Also all new in the 2024-25 Annual Catalogue. 

 I coloured my Urn and leaves using Soft Sea Foam & Smoky Slate Blends mounting everything onto a Soft Sea Foam Card Base. and Stamping Tone on Tone for the Leaf Collection stamp. I used the Pebbled Path Ribbon to add some extra interest to the front of the card. Finishing off the front using the Pick a Banner Punch for my sentiment and the Adhesive Back Shiny Sequins. 

I kept the inside of my card very simple With just a Basic White layer and the words So Lucky to Know You from the same stamp set. 

You will find the ribbon and card stock used all available in the 2023-24 Annual catalogue, but all other items will be in the up and coming 2024-25 Annual catalogue. Which is due out on the 1st May 2024. I know you wont be able to wait and see all the lovely new products. But let me assure you it will be worth the wait.

If you would like to know more about these product preset or upcoming please feel free to contact me.
