Week 21 Crushed Curry - Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello and welcome to the Art with Heart Colour Creations Blog-Hop. This week our feature colour is Crushed Curry, and yes it does look like curry powder. I thought I would do something a little different this week, it's not a card. It's a gift card or Money holder, and it hangs.

I started my project using Crushed Curry for the main card stock and added DSP from the Sentimental Christmas Suite. 

It's a cute little hanging box to hang in the Christmas tree, you could put a tag on it with the persons name if you wished. It closes using the sentiment tag at the front. Which comes from the Peaceful Season Bundle. The ribbon is the Frayed Grosgrain. I Stamped in Pretty Peacock and finished with the Drusy  Embellishments.

It's big enough to slip a gift card or some money into the box and a great idea when you don't know what to buy someone for Christmas. If you would like to know more about this design or the products used please feel free to contact me.

Week 36 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Old Olive

 

Hello and welcome to week 36 of the colour creations blog-hop. This week our feature colour is Old Olive. It's a lovely green and as you would know if following the blog green is my favourite colour. So I really didn't have much of an issue working with it. But I chose to pair it with Crushed Curry. and they are the only colours that I used.

So I started my card using a Crushed Curry card base and added the Old Olive layer. Using the DSP from the Sale-a-brations catalogue as the next layer. I then stamped all of my tools for the lovely Trusty Tools Bundle that is in the 2024 Jan-April Mini Catalogue. (so great to see a lovely male stamp set) I then coloured the handles on the Hammers and Spanners using the Old Olive blends. Stamping the Centre of the tape measures and the sentiment tabs in Old Olive. Adding a couple of silver spanners as well to finish off the front of the card along with some Iridescent Rhinestones.

This card design is called a 3 Towers card and I think that the male theme really works well on it. I'm really loving this set and have used it many times already and can see it being used even more. To finish the card I also added a writing panel to the back so you have somewhere to write your message.

This card is a larger card 7x5 inches, but I have also done this in the smaller size that also look as impressive. If you would like to know more about this design or the products used please feel free to contact me.

Week 20 2023-24 Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Crushed Curry

Hello and welcome to week 20 of the Colour Creations Blog-Hop. This week our colour if Crushed Curry and as the name implies this is a rich mustard Yellow. It's not one of my go to colours, but it's still a lovely rich colour. This week I have chosen to make a Never Ending card with a difference. I'm also using the Stargazing Suite. I love this Suite.

Okay this is my card at 1st glance it really doesn't look like much, but it will stand up and I have made this as a really large card at 8 x 8 inches. But it could very easily be sized down. I used the lovely DSP that goes with the suite along with the dies. So starting with a Crushed Curry base scored and cut my card  before added the DSP layers. when you fold this card through it's Never Ending sequence you get to see the other elements on the card.

So 1st you fold the top back and then the bottom. Now fold the sides back and you end up with a triangle shape.

From there you fold the bottom down and you get a Christmas Tree Shape, then the top back. This is where you get to see the spaceman and Ship. once you have fold the side back you and turn the card over to see the back and the writing panel. This is a little different to the regular sort of Never Ending card but I thought I would give it a go. Even though it's a flat piece of card it will stand on it's own. I cut out a few stars from the Silver Fold card to use as embellishments on the back sky areas of the card.

All of the product used in this can be found in the 2023-24 Annual Catalogue. If you would like to know more about this design or the product used, please feel free to contact me via Email, Phone or PM. So that I might help you with your purchase.

Week 3 2023-24 Colour Creations Blog-Hop Moody Mauve a 2023-25 Incolor

 

Week 3 2023-24 Colour Creations Blog-Hop

 Moody Mauve 2023-25 Incolor

Hello and welcome to week 3 of the Colour Creations Blog-Hop. We are featuring the 5 new incolors for 2023-25 over the first 5 weeks and this week we have Moody Mauve for you. To me it's a dusty pink colour pretty but unsure if I will use it much at the moment. But I'm sure as time goes on I will find myself using it a fair bit as I do like pinky colours.  I have chosen to use a carry over product for this card as I thought I could make this card to any occasion. 

So starting with a Basic White card base I added the Moody Mauve layer and then stamped the next Basic White layer using the Sending Smiles Stamp Set, I stamped the leaves using Old Olive and the flower tips using Moody Mauve. I then added some Old Olive and Crushed Curry using the Blending Brushes. I cut out the word Sending and Stamped the rest of the message onto the card directly. Finishing off the front with some of the lovely Incolor Glossy Dots.

I didn't add a sentiment to the inside of the card, that way I can use it for lots of occasions. I just stamped the same flower stem and flower and layered it onto Moody Mauve layer and then added a strip on the left-hand side to balance out the insert. All the items used in this project can be found in the 2023-24 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue, if you would like to know more about these product or would like to purchase them please feel free to contact me via email, phone or PM so that I can help you.

Week 14 Colour Creations Blog - Hop Crushed Curry

 

Hello and Welcome to week 14 of the Art with Heart Team Australia Colour Creations Blog-Hop. Each week we showcase a different colour from the Stampin' Up! range, this week is Crushed Curry. This is mustard shade of yellow from the Regals Collection. I was trying to find something a little different and having so much trouble that I ended up CASING a card from another demonstrator, LeeAnn Greff so thank you LeeAnn for the inspiration for this card.

 

I started my card with a Basic White base and added a Crushed Curry layer followed by another Basic White layer.  On my white layer I place a circle and then using my blending brushes and Crushed Curry ink Pad I coloured the front of my card adding a small amount of Pumpkin Pie ink so that it resembled a setting sun sky.  I then removed the circle to leave the white circle as the moon. I then used Evening Evergreen ink to stamp my Bamboo from the Bamboo Beauty Stamp set on page 49 of the 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue.

 

With my insert I matched this with outside of the card using the same techniques. I thought that leaving the inside white it would look wrong. it's such a simple design that really does give a real punch (in my opinion). 

 

All the items used in this project can be found in the 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue, if you would like to purchase any or all of these product please give me a call, email or PM so that I might help you with your purchase.

Week 5 - Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Blackberry Bliss

 

 

Hello Everyone and welcome to week 5 of the Art with Heart Team Colour Creations Blog-Hop. We are still on the B's and this week it is Blackberry Bliss. Not really one of my favourite colours as I like brighter colours myself. 

This week I thought I would do a fun card so I have made a Faux Pinwheel card. I love the way this looks. I have used the Pansy Petals DSP for my pinwheel and mounted this onto Blackberry Bliss card stock I then place dimensionals onto the back of this section and mounted this onto a Crushed Curry layer before gluing to a Blackberry Bliss card blank. I then Stamped my Happy Birthday from the Sweet Ice Cream Stamp set. I then coloured my Basic Pearls with my Blackberry Bliss Stampin' Blends and added them to the front of the card.

With is being a really easy card to make I have also written a tutorial for this card. So keep an eye out for that in the coming days.

My insert was very basic and once again I stamped my message from the Sweet Ice Cream bundle.

With little Blackberry Bliss droplets down the side. All the items used in this project can be found in the 2021-2022 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue, if you would like to purchase all of any of these projects please give me a call, email or PM me so that I might help you with your purchase.

Week 13 Colour Creations Showcase - Crushed Curry

Week 13 - Crushed Curry

Hi Everyone and welcome to week 13 of the Colour Creations Showcase. This week our colour is Crushed Curry, this is part of the Regals Collection of colours and is a lovely Mustard Yellow colour.
I have chosen the Zany Zebra stamp set for my card as I think they are sooooo cute.

 I Started my project with a Whisper White Card base and added the Crushed curry layer along with a DSP layer from the Playing with Patterns collection I used my Dauber to smudge around the edge of the DSP with Crushed Curry ink just to blur the lines between the layers.
I then stamped the Zebra onto White card and added a splash of colour to them using the light of the blends pens in Mango Melody, Purple Posy, Night of Navy and Flirty Flamingo. Using the layering Square dies to cut them out along with the scalloped square to mount them on. I did the same for the sentiment using the Classic Label punch. then place them all on to Dimensionals. 

I used the same technique on the inside of the card and stamped a zebra with a party hat. All the items for this project are in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue, if you would like to purchase these product please give me a call, email or PM me and I will help you with your purchase.

Colour Creations - Crushed Curry

Hi Everyone, well here we are at week 14 of the Colour Creations Hop and the colour is "Crushed Curry" it's a very rich yellow colour, I not a person that uses a lot of yellow so I found this week a bit of a challenge for me.

So this is my card I used a very vanilla card base and top layer, but placed my crushed curry between the to layers up on dimensionals. I stamped my image from the "Accented Blooms" stamp set on the top layer and coloured in the flowers using my marker pens. I stamped the "Hello" greeting in crushed curry ink and place this up on dimensionals as well.

I used the very vanilla & copper ribbon from the Tea Room Ribbon combo pack because the ribbon is narrow I used 2 strips and the added a bow between them along with the "Share what you Love Artisan Pearls" I also added some pearls to the sentiment and some of the flowers.

I layered my inserts in the same manner as the front of the card and stamped the small flower top and bottom before addinf my sentiment. All items used for this project are in the current 2018-2019 Annual Catalogue, if you would like to purchase any or all of these items please give me a call all my details can be found on the blog.
