Week 39 - Colour Creations Showcase - Purple Posy

 

Hello and welcome to week 39 of the Colour Creations Showocase. This week we are showcasing the beautiful 2019-2021 Incolor called Purple Posy. It's a really lovely soft purple and I will be sad to see it retired in just a few months time. I decided I would team this up with the next shade of purple in our colour range Highland Heather, as I think they go together really well.

I started my project using a Highland Heather card base and layered with a Purple Posy and True love DSP I then added the Scalloped linen ribbon in Purple Posy as well. I then stamped my flowers from the Forever & Always bundle and using the blends in both light and dark coloured the flowers and leaves. before cutting them out. I mounted them onto the card front using dimensionals and added a touch of Wink of Stella to the flowers. I then cut out the word Love in Highland Heather and Purple Posy and mounted them together on the front of the card I stamped the work YOU using Highland Heather and added some Pastel Pearls to finish off the front of the card.

My insert is  comprised of a Purple Posy layer and a white layer that I stamped the words FOREVER & on Highland Heather I then cut out the words Always and glued them together to place on the inside I also stamped, coloured and cut out the smaller flower to glue inside. I just thought the inside of this card needed to be eye popping as well as the front. All the items used in the project can be found in the Annual 2020-2021 Catalogue or the 2021 Mini Catalogue. If you would like to purchase any of all of these products please give me a call, email or PM so that I might help you with your purchase.

Week 18 - Colour Creations Showcase - Gorgeous Grape

 Week 18 Gorgeous Grape

Hi Everyone, and welcome to week 18 of the Art with Heart Team Colour Creations Showcase. 

This week our Colour is Gorgeous Grape this is  part of the Brights Collection of colours and a lovely dark Purple. I have chosen to team mine up with Purple Posy this is one of the 2019 - 2021 In-colors and I think they look very nice together. All my Stamping is using the Gorgeous Grape ink.

I started out with a Purple Posy Card base and add the Gorgeous Grape layer and then another Purple Posy layer I also add yet another layer in the Gorgeous Grape along with Whisper White. I stamped my Poppies using the Gorgeous Grape ink and the Painted Poppies Stamp set. I used the smudgy stamp to stamp the colour of the poppies by stamping off once and then onto the images. I stamped my sentiment from the Peaceful Moments set and once again I stamped in Gorgeous Grape. I then cut this out using the die from the So Sentimental bundle. I coloured around the edge of the die cut sentiment using the Dark Highland Heather Blend pen. I also coloured some gems using the blend pen and attached the tag using dimensionals.

 

My insert was layered using the Gorgeous Grape and Purple Posy and again stamped in Gorgeous Grape. I kept the insert fairly simple and I was happy with the result.

All the items used in this project can be found in the 2020 -2021 Annual Catalogue. If you would like to purchase any or all of these product please give me a call, Email or PM me and I will help you with your purchase.

Heart of Christmas 2019 - Week 13

Hi Everyone, here we are once again with another week of lovely Christmas projects to share.
This week I have decided to make a Tealight Candle Card and I have actually made 8 of them to give out to the girls I work with. The card holds 3 Tealight Candles and I think it's just a lovely way to give a small gift as well as a card to your workmates. I'm sure you could find plenty of different things to fill it with, like sweets or money or gift card.

I made this card in so many different styles that it's hard to pick a favourite but I must say that I think the one made using Purple Posy and Gorgeous Grape would have to be one of mine. I also made the Poinsettia flower using the Rooted In Nature dies I cut 14 of the small leaves and 2 large leaves and was really pleased at the result.

Here are a few more of the cards. I hope the girls like them when I give them out in about a months time. Except for the Black and white card all the items can be found in the Stampin' Up! Annual 2019 - 2020 Catalogue and the 2019 Holiday Catalogue. If you would like to purchase any of the product from the Holiday catalogue please be aware that this catalogue ends on the 2nd January 2020 so you will have to get in quick. If I can help you with your purchase please give me a call, PM or email so that I can help you.

Colour Creations - Purple Posy

Hi Everyone, well we are at the end of our Colour Creations Blog-Hop this is very sad as I have really enjoyed the challenge of using every colour that Stampin' Up! have in there range.
And with that said we are using the Purple Posy to finish on. What a beautiful colour it is as pale and delicate. As I don't have a lot of products in this colour only card and ribbon I had a bit of a challenge to make this card but I'm very happy with the result.

 I started out with a Gorgeous Grape card base and add then Highland Heather as the 1st layer and stamped tone on tone using the Floral Essence Stamp set. I coloured the centres of the flowers with my Daffodil Delight Blender pen just to make them show up better I then place another layer of card using the Purple Posy over this and add the ribbon at the join mark. I then stamped the flower from the Floral Essence onto another strip of Purple Posy in Versa Mark and Gold Embossed before cutting them into squares again I coloured the centres of the flowers with my blender pen before using both Gorgeous Grape and Highland Heather to Aqua paint the rest of the flowers to give them some depth, I mounted them on to Gorgeous Grape square and added dimensionals to the back. To finish off the front I stamped Happy Birthday from the Wonderful Moments Stamp set and flagged the end and glued this under the bow, I added some basic rhinestones to the ribbon and wink of stella to the mount flowers.

Carrying the theme to the inside of the card I stamped the flowers again and Gold Embossed them as well as Aqua painted them I them mounted the Purple Posy on to Highland Heather to match the outside of the card.
All the products used in this project are available in the 2019-2020 Annual Catalogue, if you would like to purchase all or any of the project used here please give me a Call, Email or PM so that I can help you with your purchase.
