Highland Heather

 

Welcome to week 22 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations blog hop for 2021. This week's feature colour is Highland Heather which is from the Subtles colour group.

For some weeks now I have had a piece of Basic White cardstock that I had embossed using the Pretty Flowers embossing folder sitting on my craft desk so I thought it was time to incorporate it into a card. I also then decided it was time to open up a couple of dies that were still to be opened. Sparkle of the Season and Iconic dies.

 

I have die cut the wreath using Soft Sea Foam and the flowers are from the Iconic die which a set of all different elements. The flowers have been die cut using Highland Heather. In the case of the flowers there are 3 different sizes and I have just layered them all and popped a Pastel pearl in the flower centre.

The sentiment is from Best Year and has been die cut with yet another die, a Scalloped Contour die. Finally a few more Pastel Pearls and bow using Grosgrain Ribbon. 

Although I really love all purple colours I have to say that I found this weeks Colour Creation Showcase challenging. Maybe just a bit of lockdown fatigue setting in! Finally though we get to start to return to some form of normal this week. 

Next in tonight's blog hop is my lovely upline Christine Blain . I look forward to seeing what lovely creation she has share with us tonight. Christine has the innate ability to be a wonderful enabler.

Perfectly Plaid Christmas

 

Welcome to another year of the Art With Heart Heart of Christmas. This year we have decided to go back to weekly blogs as well as reverting to the blog hop format. The host for this week's blog hop is the lovely Sharon Davern.

As this has been scheduled for just after the brand new July to December mini was available for Demonstrators to order from I have had to rely on products from the Annual catalogue.

Perfectly Plaid is a stamp set that has been available for a couple of years now but is still a great one to use for Christmas. This year I have decided to pair if with some of the new Tidings Of Christmas DSP which features a couple of the new In Colours for 2021, Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent.

 

 

For the background I have used the Evergreen Forest embossing folder which features Pine trees just like the ones I have punched out using the Pine Tree punch. As mentioned I have used a piece of the Tidings of Christmas DSP which i have die cut using one of the Basic Borders dies to make it look like rolling hills. The sentiment is from the Best Year stamp set which has sentiments for all sorts of occasions. This has been stamped on Basic White and then die cut using one of the dies from the Scalloped Contours dies. The beautiful ribbon is the new Soft Succulent Open Weave ribbon. Then for a bit of bling I've added some Red Rhinestones.

Next on tonight's blog hop is Tina Gillespie. Click on the button below and it should take you to her blog where you can see her lovely Christmas creation. If the button link is not working or you would like to see the entire list of participants go to Sharon Davern's blog.

Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop Week 6 : Bumblebee

Welcome back to week 6 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase blog hop. This week our feature colour is Bumblebee. Bumblebee is a colour from the new In Colours for 2020-22 Colour Collection and it is a lovely yellow colour. 


For my Colour Creations Showcase I have chosen to feature some of the new coordinating Designer Series Paper and a new stamp set of sentiments.

There is actually not much stamping on this card, just the sentiment! I have chosen 2 coordinating Designer Series Papers from the Flowers For Every Season Pack and teamed them with some Very Vanilla, Bumblebee and Just Jade cardstock. Just Jade is another of the In Colours that were released recently. Around the centre of the card I have wrapped some Open Weave Vanilla ribbon, from the Forever Greenery trim pack and topped it with some beautiful Bumblebee Gingham ribbon. The flowers I have popped on are actually from the Flowers For Every Season Memories and More Cards. In the centre of the flowers I have adhered some of the new In Colour enamel dots just to accentuate the flowers a bit.Finally a cute little Bumblebee Gingham bow to finish it off! It's just a nice and quick card to put together with some lovely coordinating products.


As always if you would like to know more about anything Stampin Up!, would like me to pop a brand new catalogue in the mail to you, or would like to order any of the beautiful products then please contact me via the Facebook tab up the top.
