Sale-a-bration and Jan-April Mini Cataogue has started!

 I want to share some cards that I made with one of this year's Sale-a-bration rewards, the Heart Shaped Bundle.


The Heart Shaped Bundle can be yours for free with any $200 purchase during Sale-a-bration.

For this card I stamped the heart shaped stamp in Shy Shamrock. The heart shaped die cut is from a sheet of Bloom Impressions DSP which is another of the SAB rewards.

The background papers are Shy Shamrock In Colour DSP and the Beautiful Bokeh DSP, from the Jan to April Mini.

The second card uses the Floral and Gingham Specialty Vellum and the Floral Delight DSP.

The heart shaped stamp was stamped in Old Olive and the Heart die cut is also from the Floral Delight DSP. The card base is Old Olive. The flowers are Daffodil Delight and Basic White and the leaves are Old Olive.

For the third card I used the Beautiful Bokeh DSP for the background and the heart shaped die cut is from the Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper. It's so sparkly and pretty! 


Again the stamped heart shape is Old Olive. The card base is Fresh Freesia and I also added a tiny bit of Petal Pink card stock as a mat and a flower.


Pleaes contact me with any questions about these projects or the Sale-a-bration Sale.

Happy stamping,
Rachel

Colour Creations Blog Hop week 36 Moody Mauve Corner in Bloom

 



Welcome to week 36 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. This week we are featuring Moody Mauve which is one of the 2023-2025 In Colours. Unfortunately that means that Moody Mauve is one of the colours that will be leaving our range in May this year.


For tonight's card I have use one of the Sale-a-bration rewards stamp sets called Corner in Bloom. You can earn this stamp set for free with any $200 purchase during Sale-a-bration.


I stamped the largest corner image in Pebbled Path ink. I coloured the image with Blends Markers in Moody Mauve, Bubble Bath and Lost Lagoon.


I made this into a square card so that I could fit the banner cut from the Birthday Celebration Die set. I embossed the banner with the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder to add a bit of texture to my card. The greeting is also from the Birthday Celebration stamp set. I first inked the words in Versamark and then straight into the Moody Mauve ink before stamping. I sprinkled with Clear Embossing powder before heating to make the greeting shiny. I double inked the lower half of each word to make it a little darker.


Before attaching the greeting banner I used a Blending Brush to app[y some Lost Lagoon ink behind the banner. The final embellishments were a bow from Moody Mauve Jute Trim and some Petunia Pop Shimmer Gems.

Now it's time to hop over and see what my talented stamping friend Cathy Proctor has to share with us.

Cathy is also the host of our Colour Creations Blog Hops and has a complete list of tonight's participants in case there is any issues with our links.

Join us again next week when we will be featuring Mossy Meadow.

Colour Creations Blog Hop week 34 Misty Moonlight One More Year

 

Happy New Stamping Year friends! 

Welcome back to the Colour Creations Blog Hops with the Art With Heart Team. We are up to week 34 which features one of my favourite and most used colours, Misty Moonlight. Misty Moonlight is a beautiful dusty blue/gray colour that works perfectly with many SU colours.

For tonight's card I have used Misty Moonlight with a new stamp set from the Jan- April Mini Catalogue called One More Year. This fun stamp set is great fun to colour and can be used for many occasions.


I stamped the cake and dog image in Memento Black ink and coloured them with my Blends Markers. The colours I used are listed below.


The greeting is stamped in Misty Moonlight ink.
I cut out both images with a circle die and the greeting with a banner, all from the Stylish Shapes Dies


The background paper is from the Country Lace DSP.

Now it's time to hop over and see what amazing Misty Moonlight creation my lovely friend Sharon Davern has to share with us.
