Week 48 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Starry Sky

 


 Hello and welcome to week 48 of the colour creations Blog-Hop. Well we are really getting to the pointy end as there are only 2 more week to go. This week we are featuring a retiring Incolour called Starry Sky. Not one that I found myself using very much, in fact I have only just unwrapped my ink pad for this card. But anyway I wanted to use that lovely Reach for the Stars Bundle one last time as I really love this bundle and have used it a lot. I thought I would keep it pretty simple to feature the paper and dies more than anything else. So I started with a Starry Sky Card Base and added a Silver Foil layer and then the lovely DSP (Stargazing)  I cut the planet out of the DSP as well and then used the Silver Foil to the rings. I stamped the sentiment tag and punched it out using the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch. I then used my Dauber to colour the edges of the tag with Starry Sky ink, Finishing off the front with the love Iridescent Rhinestones.

 

 I also kept the inside of my card simple as well by just stamping onto Basic White card using the Starry Sky ink. I also used the dauber again around the edges so that it wasn't as bigger contrast.


 

This card would suit a male or female, but at this stage I have no idea who will be getting it. All the items used in this Project can be found in the 2023-24 Annual Catalogue. As this catalogue will be ending very soon and all of these product will be retiring. I would recommend that you get in quick if you would like them.

Week 44 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Real Red

 


Hello all, and welcome to week 44 of the colour creations Blog-Hop. This week we are featuring Real Red. This colour is part of the Brights Collection of colours and a really lovely bright red.

I have chosen to use one of the Online Exclusive product that went live this month (March 2024) Called Simply Zinnia. I started with a Real Red card back and add a Old Olive layer. I then added a Basic white layer that I embossed using the embossing folder that is part of the Zinnia Suite. then I made my frame that covers part of the basic white layer and added the DSP to give the framed look. I called this card a Framed Card. I then cut out the Zinnias from the dies as well as the leaves and added them to the front of the card. Finishing off the front using the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch, and some of the lovely shiny Sequins.

 As always I follow the layering over to the inside of my card, with Old Olive and Basic White. I stamped my sentiment and the zinnias in Real red and only coloured the leaves with Old Olive. I love the way the frame turned out. I haven't seen this design before (not saying it's not been done before) and was happy with how it all came together.

 If you would like to know more about these Online Exclusive product or the design of my card please feel free to contact me.
