Week 38 - Colour Creations Showcase - Pumpkin Pie

Hello all and welcome to week 38 of the Colour Creations Showcase. This week we have Pumpkin Pie as our colour. It's a beautiful rich Orange and my second favourite colour so I have found this quite easy to work with. I decided to used the Rooted in Nature stamp set and an Autumn theme for my card as we are coming into this time of the year when there are so many lovely colours on the trees.

 

I started with a Pumpkin Pie card base and added a Pear Pizzazz layer that I run through my embossing machine with the Subtle Embossing Folder, I then added a Pumpkin Pie layer on an angle before stamping a white layer with White Embossing Powder and the leaf stamp. I used Pumpkin Pie, Pear Pizzazz and Crushed Curry ink pads along with my blending brushes to colour the white card to give a lovely muted background. I then stamped my sentiment with White Embossing Powder and heat set it before cutting it out using the die from the So Sentimental bundle. I mounted this to the front of my card using dimensionals and then added 2 Pear Pizzazz and 2 Pumpkin Pie leaves and some Gold Enamel dots.

My insert I used another Pear Pizzazz layer before added the white layer of which I stamped around the edge the same leaves as for the front of the card. I then stamped my sentiment using Pumpkin Pie.  I don't know who will get this card yet but I'm sure I will know the right person when it's time.

Colour Creations Showcase - Basic Gray

Hi Everyone and welcome to week 2 of the Colour Creations Showcase, this week our colour is Basic Gray. Not an easy colour for me to work with but I was pleased with the outcome all the same.

I decided, I would start with a Basic Gray card base and then added a layer of So Saffron followed by another layer in Basic Gray. I stamped the Dandelion using Versa Mark and then added the White Embossing powder and heat set them I then used the So Saffron Blender pens to all so colour to the the dandelions. I think this lifted them I then added my ribbon and bow and mounted the layers onto dimensionals before attaching to the front of the card.

I then stamped my sentiment using the versa mark and embossing powder, before cutting them out using the die's from the so sentimental bundle I then cut out another and cut it in half and place this behind so that it gives a border.

I then layered my insert onto some So Saffron and stamped some more dandelions.
