Just Jade

 

Welcome to week 23 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations blog hop for 2021. This week's feature colour is Just Jade which is one of the In Colours from the 2020-22 range and as the name suggests it is a jade green colour.

 

 

Tonight's card is all about letting the Designer Series Paper (DSP) be the feature of the card. It is also a quick card to whip up when you are time poor as I was this week, as for the first time in about 3 months we were able to venture out of Melbourne and spend sometime catching up with friends in regional Victoria, Gippsland in fact.

The starting point for this  card was die cut pieces of the Expressions In Ink DSP using one of the Rectangle Stitched dies and then mounting them on a piece of Gold Metallic Speciality Paper. I have then mounted the rectangles on a piece of Basic White cardstock that I have embossed using the Tasteful Textile folder.

This has then been mounted on a card of Just Jade. The sentiment I have used is one from In Symmetry and has been stamped in Just Jade on a piece of Basic White cardstock also die cut using a Stitched Rectangle die. Finally I've added a couple of elements from the Expression In Ink Ephemera Pack and some Genial Gems.

Next in tonight's blog hop is the talented Di Furniss. I look forward to seeing what lovely creation she has share with us tonight.

Flirty Flamingo Friend

 

Welcome to week 17 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations blog hop for 2021. This week's feature colour is Flirty Flamingo which is from the Brights colour group. Flirty Flamingo is a quite bold pink and definitely not a soft colour which I prefer.

This week I took my inspiration from a piece of the DSP from the Sweet Symmetry pack and also decided to ink up the coordinating In Symmetry stamp set for the first time. I have teamed Flirty Flamingo with Pear Pizzazz.

 This time I actually stamped the image on some Basic White cardstock and then embossed the cardstock with the Ornate Floral folder. I have then die cut this piece with one of the Stitched So Sweetly dies. Then I have mounted this on a piece of the Sweet Symmetry DSP. Some people would call this the "b"side of the paper. 

Ive added a few Rhinestones to the flower petals and flower centre. The sentiment is also from the In Symmetry stamp set and I have embossed it with White embossing powder on Flirty Flamingo cardstock. I have then die cut this using a smaller Stitiched So Sweetly die. Finally some ribbon and a bow using the White Glittered Organdy ribbon, from the current mini, which as well as some silver highlights also has some pink as well.

Next in tonight's blog hop is the lovely Tina Gillespie. I look forward to seeing what lovely creation they share with us tonight. Tina has the ability to create lovely monochromatic cards so I am interested to see her use of Flirty Flamingo.

Remember to come back again next week when our feature colour will be Garden Green one of the Regal colours..
