Week 2, 2023-24 Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Copper Clay

 

Week 2, 2023-24 Colour Creations Blog-Hop. Copper Clay 2023-2025 Incolor.

Hello and Welcome to week 2 of the Colour Creations Blog-Hop. This week we are featuring Copper Clay another of the lovely 2023-25 Incolors. This one I like a lot. It's a beautiful brown and I can see this one being used quite a bit by me.

I thought I would try a technique I have never done before called Retiform, I must admit I was happy with this design, it really is a bit different.

 I started with a Copper Clay card base and added a Basic White layer. then I cut another layer in Basic White and using a black pen I drew in the lines that I wanted to stamp my images into. I stamped my images from the In the Moment and Beside Me Stamp sets.Colouring them all in using my marker pens. I then used a Dauber and the Copper Clay ink pad to define each area. Stamping my sentiment into the last section. I then glued this to my Basic White layer and on to the front of the card, finishing off with the Incolour Glossy Dots. 

I wanted to carry the theme over to the inside of the card so I sectioned off one corner and stamped an image here are coloured and defined as before. Also going around the edge of the whole piece of Basic White Card. I stamped my message using the Copper Clay ink. I think this is an amazingly effective design. 

 All the items used in this project are from the current 2023-24 Annual Catalogue. If you would like to know more about this design or the items used please feel free to contact me either by Email, Phone or PM. So that I might help you with information or purchase of products.

Week 5 Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Tahitian Tide

 

Hi and welcome to week 5 of the Art with Heart Team Australia Blog-Hop. If you haven't been here before we are showcasing all of the Stampin' Up! Colours in Alphabetical order. We are however starting with the new 2022-2024 In-colours and this is the Last of them. It's Called Tahitian Tide a Blue colour. This week I have chosen to case a card from the new 2022-2023 Annual catalogue, well it's my twist on it from page 113. 

 I started with a Tahitian Tide card base and added a Basic White layer. I them used the new Incolor DSP (159258), I cut it to size and then cut off a 1 inch (2.5cm) strip length ways and turned it around. This way both sides of the beautiful DSP can be seen. I then cut another piece of Basic White and stamped the one of the images from the In the Moment Stamp Set (157987) along with the sentiment. I used my Blends for colour the images and the die from the Hues of Happiness Bundle (158824) to put the holes down the side so that it looks as though it's been pulled out of a coil bound pad. I finished off the front of the card with glossy dots (158827) Even though they are Pool Party they matched pretty well with the card. 

I love the look of the spiral bound edge it's really brings your eye to the centre of the card. I did mount this layer onto Dimensionals (104430).

My insert was every simple with the same stamped image at the bottom and the sentiment stamped with Tahitian Tide ink. I think this a card I would give to someone who it feeling a little low, so at this time I don't have anyone in mind. All the items used in this project can be found in the 2022-2023 Annual Catalogue, if you would like to know more about these products or you would like to purchase them please feel free to give me a call, email or PM so that I can help you.
