Stampin' Up! Bumblebee Strength

 

Welcome to Week 7 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop for 2021. This week our feature colour is one of the 2020-21 In Colours, Bumblebee. 

 

I have teamed Bumblebee with another of the In Colours from 2020-21, Cinnamon Cider and then one of the new In Colours, Evening Evergreen. I have always been a lover of all things Autumn so decided to ink up the Love of Leaves which has the matching dies, Stitched Leaves.

For the base of the card I have embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock with the 3D Bark Embossing folder. On top of this I have placed a piece of Cinnamon Cider cardstock with another piece of Basic White that has been stamped using one of the leaves stamps in Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider and Evening Evergreen. I have then added some die cut leaves using the same colour cardstock. The greeting is from Queen Anne's Lace and has been stamped on apiece of Basic White cardstock which has been die cut with one of the Hippo and Friends dies. Then finally some Bumblebee Gingham ribbon and a couple of Champagne Rhinestones.

Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase : Mango Melody

 Welcome to another week of the Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase where this week our feature colour isManggo Melody which is from the Brights colour group. This week I have 2 cards to share with you.

For my first card I have taken my inspiration from one of the pieces of DSP from the Plaid tidings paper pack which is from the current mini catalogue, as are the Stitched Leaves dies which I have used. I just love the detail that these dies have, one is for cutting the shape and a matching one for the stitched embossing. Then I have added some bling using a few of the Artistry Blooms sequins. The sentiment is stamped on one of the Stitched Nested Labels dies.

 

For my second card I have chosen to CASE the card on page 43 of the Annual Catalogue. The DSP I have used is from the Peony Garden pack and I have embossed it using the Tasteful Textile embossing folder but it's a bit hard to see in the photo. As suggested on page 43, even though the Many Medallions die cuts a larger piece, you don't have to use it all and can trim parts of it. Sometimes we overlook just how much information the Annual catalogue gives us. There are some great tips and hints on the pages.

Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop : Week 7 Cajun Craze

Welcome back to week 7 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase blog hop. This week our feature colour is Cajun Craze. Cajun Craze is a colour from the Regals colour collection and is a Terracotta type of colour. It's not a colour that I would usually gravitate towards but I have enjoyed being challenged to use it for this week's showcase.

For my first card I have chosen to feature some new products that are soon to be released in the upcoming August to December mini catalogue which features many new Christmas themed stamps, papers and embellishments. The catalogue also features some new Autumnal themed products and that is what I have chosen for my first card.

I have used the Love of Leaves stamp set which is bundled with some very beautiful Stitched Leaves dies. Can you see the stitched looking veins on the leaves. The die set also contains the stitched line die on the right hand side of my card. I have also used a piece of DSP from the upcoming mini called Plaid Tidings which contains all plaid or checked patterns. The sentiment is also from the same stamp set and I have stamped it a piece of white cardstock and cut it with the Stitched rectangle dies which continues on the stitch theme. For a bit of interest I have added one of the In Good Taste wooden elements and a bit of Braided linen trim.



For my second card this week I have chosen to a stamp set that has carried over from the previous years annual catalogue, Rooted In Nature and the matching  Natures Roots Framelits dies.

In this card I have dry embossed a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock with the Pinewood Planks embossing folder and then stamped and die cut some of the leaves from the stamp set in Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso and Garden Green. To finish the card off I have added some Linen thread and a couple of Champagne Rhinestones.
