Stampin' Up! Mint Macaron

 

Welcome to week 28 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations blog hop for 2021. This week's feature colour is Mint Macaron which as the name suggests is a mint green colour and is one of the Subtles colours.

 

This week I have decided to ink up the Flowers of Friendship stamp set again which has a matching punch. 

I started by stamping the image in Black Memento ink and then colouring the image using Stampin Blends in both Mint Macaron and Pale Papaya. I have then punched a couple of the flowers and popped them up with dimensionals. For the flower centres I have used some Loose Flowers Flourishes in Pale Papaya. I have then die cut this image using the Stitched So Sweetly dies. The sentiment is from the same stamp set and has also been stamped in Black Memento and also die cut with a smaller die from the same set.

For the background DSP I have used one of the reverse sides of the Hand Penned DSP and once again embossed it using the Tasteful Textile folder. I really wish that the Subtle folder hadn't been retired as it was perfect for this sort of look.  

Finally I have added some Pale Papaya ribbon, both wrapping around the panel and the bow.

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

Gorgeous Grape Wishes

 

Welcome to week 19 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations blog hop for 2021. This week's feature colour is Gorgeous Grape which is from the Brights colour group. Gorgeous Grape is a very strong purple colour.

As I find Gorgeous Grape to be a very strong purple colour I have decided to try and tone it down a bit this week and created my own background by using the  Plenty of Patterns Decorative Masks. That way I could determine the depth of the colour used. I've also chosen to stamp off the larger flowers so they aren't as bold.

To create the background I've used Gorgeous Grape and blending brushes. That way the colour can be lighter. As mentioned I've stamped off the main flowers in Gorgeous Grape and the smaller flowers are in So Saffron. The leaves have been stamped in Pear Pizzazz. Once all of the stamping was finished I have then die cut the flowers using the corresponding dies. This has then been mounted on a piece of Basic White cardstock that has been die cut using one of the Scalloped Contour dies. The sentiment is from Queen Anne's Lace and has been embossed in white on Gorgeous Grape cardstcok and then die cut using one of the Ornate Frames dies. For the flower centres I have added some of the beautiful Pastel Pearls.

Next in tonight's blog hop is the lovely Andrea Sargent. I look forward to seeing what lovely creation they share with us tonight.

Daffodil Delight Friendship

 

Welcome to week 15 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations blog hop for 2021. This week's feature colour is Daffodil Delight which is from the Brights colour group. Daffodil Delight is a bright sunny yellow colour. Last week many of the participants of the Colour Creations blog hop paired Crushed Curry with Black and White but I had had that in mind for Daffodil Delight.

For my card this week I have finally inked up the Shaded Summer stamp set which if you spend $180 this month you can earn the coordinating dies for free.

 

My starting point was a piece of DSP from the "B side"of the Hand Penned paper pack. I then stamped this with one of the images in Daffodil Delight. I've then added a piece of the beautiful Black Shimmer paper that I have die cut using one of the Basic Borders dies. I have then placed another piece of DSP on top of this also from a "B side"but this time Simply Elegant.

The centrepiece of the card though is the floral spray from the Shaded Summer stamp set and then die cut with the Saleabration die. I've coloured it using Daffodil Delight and Old Olive blends. Finally a cute bow using the Black and White Gingham and a few Matte Black dots. Oh  and finally a cute little Bumblebee trinket perched on the flower.

 The sentiment is also from the Shaded Summer stamp set and has been stamped and die cut using one of the Stitched So Sweetly dies.

Next in tonight's blog hop is the lovely Rachel Palmieri. I look forward to seeing what lovely creation they have to share with us this week.
