Week 8 - Balmy Blue Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello and welcome to week 8 of the Colour Creations Blog-Hop. This week our feature colour is Balmy Blue. This is a really pretty pale blue and I love it. Although I did have a few issues coming up with a design for this weeks card. But I was happy with what jumped into my head.

I started out with a Balmy Blue card base, adding a Basic White layer that I embossed using the So Swirly Embossing folder. I then used the Deckled Circles 5 smallest sizes and cut out 2 sizes in Balmy Blue and 3 sizes in the Countryside Inn DSP. Gluing them to the front of the card largest to smallest in size on an angle. I then used the lovely Heart & Hugs Bundle and stamped the hugging badgers. I know badgers are not blue but they do look so cute coloured in Balmy Blue. Add a sentiment and badgers to the front with dimensionals and colouring some basic gems with night of navy ink to finish off the front.

I did bring the theme over to the inside of the card. Sorry about the red haze that was from the sun set through the window. I stamped the hugging badger again in the bottom corner and added the hearts colouring everything in Balmy Blue.

All the items used in this project can be found in the 2024-25 Annual Catalogue or in the Online store. if you would like to know more about these products please feel free to contact me.

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.
