Welcome to another week of the Art
With Heart Colour Creations Showcase where this week our feature colour
is Gray Granite, which belongs to the Neutrals group of colours. This week I have 2 cards to share with you but both are using the same colour
combination of Gray Granite, Soft Sea Foam and Petal Pink.
My first card features the beautiful Prized Peony bundle and the gorgeous large flower stamp and the matching die. I have chosen to colour the Peony with Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Stampin blends. The Peony has been mounted on Whisper White cardstock that has been both embossed using the Dainty diamonds folder and then die cut using one of the Ornate Layers dies. This has then been mounted on a piece of DSP from the Peony Garden DSP pack.
The sentiment is from the Fancy Phrases stamp set which has been punched using one of the Banners Pick a Punch from the current Mini catalogue. Finally some beautiful Organdy Striped ribbon and cute little butterfly using one of the Butterfly Beauty dies.
For my second card I have used another piece of the DSP from the Peony Garden pack and chosen to colour it using the same colours of Stampin Blends as used in the above card. I do find colouring so relaxing which is so important in these trying times.
Once again I have used some of the beautiful Organdy Striped ribbon but also mounted the sentiment panel on a Square Vellum Dollie. The sentiment is also from the Prized Peony stamp set. It's a bit hard to see from the photograph but the coloured DSP has also been embossed using the Subtle embossing folder.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful stamping and colouring on both cards Theresa! Thank you for participating in the Colour Creations showcase this week xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards! I love the large peony, and the DSP, on your first card ... actually, I love all the "bits" you used. I keep forgetting about the square vellum doilies, that work so beautifully with the Peony Garden suite; love how the doily works behind your sentiment on the second card. x
