Art With Heart Colour Creations - week 27 Mint Macaron

 

Welcome to week 27 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations  Showcase featuring Mint Macaron, which is one of our Subtle colours. I have paired Mint Macaron with Real Red and Whisper White to create a couple of Christmas cards.  

I have used a two different snowman images from two different stamp sets.

The first card uses the Don't Stop Believing stamp set. The Mint Macaron background is embossed with the Dainty Diamonds embossing folder and mounted on a Real Red card base.

I stamped the melted snowman image and the greeting on Whisper White and cut it out with one of the Layered Square Dies. The tiny bit of colouring on this image was done using Blends Markers. The colours I used are listed below.

The ribbon on the card is Sheer Real Red Ribbon from the August to Dec Mini. The Designer Series paper is from Heart warming Hugs and the two snowflakes are from the Layered Christmas Dies.

    For the second card I stamped a snowman from the Snowman Season stamp set. The image was cut using an oval Stitched Shape Die. Once again I used my trusty Blends Markers to colour the image, although not much colouring was involved.

The snowflakes in the background are from the Christmas Layers Dies and were cut from Whisper White paper, as is the single snowflake on the top left of the image.

The final embellishment is a piece of Polka Dot Tulle around the bottom of the card. 

The greeting is also from the Snowman Season stamp set.

All of the products I have used on my projects are listed below and are available to purchase in my online store.
