Week 30 Higland Heather - Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2024-25

 

Hello and welcome to week 30 of the Colour Creations Blog-hop. We are an Australian team of stamper who enjoy creating and highlighting a different colour from the Stampin' Up! range each week. This week our collour is called Highland Heather, it a lovely light purple colour and I do like it very much. I have chosen to use the Attention Shoppers bundle with it this week and it went together just as I had imagined it.

I started with a Highland Heather card base and added a Blackberry Bliss layer and then the DSP from the To Market Suite. I then cut out 2 deckled circles one in Highland Heather and the other in Silver Mirror card, different sizes. I also cut out the shopping trolley in Silver and Early Espresso. I stamped 6 of the Shopping bags and coloured them in an array of different colours, piling them into the trolley.

I also stamped my message and embossed with silver embossing powder. I then mounted the trolley onto the front of the card using dimensionals. I didn't add any bling to the front of the card as I thought it would get lost among the silver mirror card.

With my insert I used another layer of Blackberry Bliss and then Basic White. Stamping my sentiment in Highland Heather and then another shopping bag that I coloured. This bundle is really great for those shopaholic's out there. All the items used in this project can be found in the 2024-25 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue.

Week 43 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Pumpkin Pie

 

Hello and welcome to the Colour Creations Blog-Hop. we are now getting to the pointy end of the colours with only 7 more weeks to go after this. Our feature colour this week is Pumpkin Pie, a really lovely Orange and part of the Brights collection of colours. So with that in mind I decided I would use some of the lovely Stargazing DSP and the Reach for the Stars Bundle for this weeks project.

I started by using Pumpkin Pie for my card base making a cutaway front card design. I added Basic Black for my 1st layer and then the Stargazing DSP layer to both pieces of the front. I then stamped using my Versa Mark ink and Silver embossed my sentiment onto the DSP and then the astronaut on Black card embossed in silver mounting them with dimensionals. Finishing off the front with a few silver stars.

As the front of the card is cut away you can see some of the inside, so I added the Basic Black and Basic White layers to the inside. Stamping in Black Memento. I kept the inside very plain as I didn't want any stamping to be seen from the outside of the card.

This is such a simple design and yet very effective. I love the way this one turned out as well. All the items used in this weeks project can be found in the 2023-24 Annual Catalogue. If you would like to know more about this card design or the product that I used please feel free to contact me via email or PM.

Week 35 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Night of Navy

 

Hi Everyone and welcome to week 35 of the colour creations blog hop. This week our feature colour is Night of Navy. I do like this colour but I did find it a little hard to come up with a design for this week.  I ended up using the same design as I have for my YOUTUBE channel (this will go live on Sunday 14th) This is a Swing Arm Card. I have made this before but I wanted to revisit it.

Here it is, I started with a Night of Navy card base and added a Basic White layer. Using the DSP from the Rock & Roll pack, as I thought this looked like some paint. I also used the Trusty Tools Bundle for the sentiment tag and paint brushes for the front of the card. I made my swing are using the deckled Circles. Finishing off the front with iridescent rhinestones.

The right-hand arm swings open so that you can open the card. When doing the inside of the card I used the Rock Star stamp set as I thought the words looked as though they had been painted. I did my insert stamping in Night of Navy. Using the nuts and bolts in the corners.

A lovely male card, I'm loving the fact that there are a few more male sets in the new Jan-April Mini Catalogue. If you would like to know more about these product or the card design, please feel free to contact me.

Week 34 of the Colour creations Blog-Hop 2023-24 - Mossy Meadow

Hello, welcome back, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas holiday break. So we are carrying on from where we left off last year. Meaning Week 34 is Mossy Meadow week. Being a big fan of green I really didn't have much trouble coming up with this weeks project. I decided to use the New Rock Star Suite collection from the new mini Catalogue that goes live tomorrow. I was so happy to see some really male product in this new catalogue.
 

So I started with a Mossy Meadow card base and added a Soft Sea Foam layer and the lovely Rock & Roll DSP. This DSP is in black and white so I coloured all the guitars. I then added the large plectrum cut out of Mossy Meadow card stock. I then heat embossed the microphone and sentiment tag with Silver Embossing Powder. Placing them onto the front of the card using dimensionals. Then finishing off the front using the Adhesive backed Lighting and Stars.

I used the same layering on the inside of the card and stamped from the Rock Star Bundle in Mossy Meadow. I added the lighting to add a little more interest to the inside of the card. I had the idea for this card in my head before I had even got my order, so I was really happy that it came together just how I wanted it.

These new product can be found on page 55 of the new Jan-April 2024 Mini Catalogue. If you would like to know more about these product or would like to purchase them please feel free to contact me.
