Stampin' Up! Mint Macaron

 

This week, week 30 in the Colour Creations blog hop we continue our journey  featuring all of the Core Stampin' Up! colours, in alphabetical order. This week's feature colour  Mint Macaron, is a member of the Subtles colour group, and as the name suggests is a pale mint green colour.

 I have been a bit time poor this week as I have had a family member in hospital and have spent my days back and forward to the hospital but thankfully by the time you read this they will be home again. Being time poor I have chosen to go with a layout I have used a similar layout to one I have used here. I have teamed Mint Macaron with White and Pale Papaya.

The background paper is from the Design a Daydream host Designer Paper and I have topped it with a piece of Basic White cardstock that has been embossed using the Stitched Greenery die and then die cut using one of the Split Card Textures dies.

The Floral Sprays are from the Framed Florets bundle and have been coloured using both Mint Macaron and Pale Papaya Stampin Blends. The sprays have been die cut using the matching dies from the Framed Florets dies.

The sentiment is from Go To Greetings and has been embossed in white on Mint Macaron cardstock and then die cut using one of the Tailor Made Tags dies.

Finally I have added a bow using the Pale Papaya Open Weave ribbon. After taking the photo I also added a couple of gems but ran out of time to photograph the card again.  So you'll just have to use your imagination. 

Next in tonight's blog hop is our lovely host Cathy Proctor. I look forward to seeing her lovely creation.

Stampin' Up! Merry Merlot

 

Welcome to week 27 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations blog hop for 2021. This week's feature colour is Merry Merlot which is surprisingly one of the Neutrals colours and as the colour suggests is a wine/burgundy colour.

 For my card this week I have taken inspiration from a piece of beautiful paper from the Beauty of the Earth Designer Paper. I have used this as the background.

 

I have then added a piece of Merry Merlot cardstock topped with a piece of Basic White cardstock that I have embossed using the Stitched Greenery die. I have then stamped the tree image from the Beauty Of Friendship using the 2 step method, using Blushing Bride and Merry Merlot.  I have then die cut this using the corresponding die. I have also stamped the tree trunk and branches using Early Espresso and also die cut it with the corresponding die. The cute little birds have also been die cut from the Beautiful Trees dies in Misty Moonlight. 

 Can you see I've added a couple of Champagne Rhinestone for the birds eyes? The sentiment is also from the Beauty of Friendship stamp set and has been stamped in Merry Merlot and die cut with one of the rectangle dies from the Beautiful Trees die set. The twine I have used is from Bakers Twine Essential Pack.

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

Stampin' Up! Cajun Craze Sympathy

 As I mentioned in my previous post for the Art With Colour Creations Showcase Blog Hop, I would have another Cajun Craze card to share with you and this is the other one I created.

 

For this card I have used the Beautiful Trees  dies to die cut the leaves from a piece of the Beauty of the Earth DSP. I have mounted the tree on a piece of Basic White cardstock that has been embossed using the Stitched Greenery die. The sentiment is from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set. I've added some Bakers Twine and then a couple of Brushed Metallic dots.
