Colour Creations Showcase week 29 - Misty Moonlight

 

Welcome to the last week for 2021 of the Colour Creations Showcase with the Art With Heart Team. After this week we will be taking a break until the 5th of January.

This week we are featuring Misty Moonlight which is one of the 2020-2022 In Colours. I love this colour and I will be very sad when it retires in April next year.

I have used a stamp set appearing in the new Jan to June Mini Catalogue called Gumball Greetings. This stamp set is also available in a bundle with the Gumball Machine Dies.


 The products in the new catalogue are available to customers from the 4th of January 2022. 



I stamped the small gumball machine numerous time with Misty Moonlight ink and coloured them with Blends in Misty Moonlight and Balmy Blue and the Colour Lifter.


The greeting I used is also in the Gumball Greetings stamp set and was stamped in Misty Moonlight ink. I cut the greeting using the Tailor Made Tags Dies. I had to shorten the die cut by first cutting one end then re-positioned the die to cut the other end.


Here's a little peek at one extra gumball machine I added to the inside of the card.

The next blog on our hop belongs to Cathy Proctor, who is also the coordinator of our weekly blog hops. I can't wait to see what she has made with this gorgeous colour.

Colour Creations Blog Hop - Week 27 Merry Merlot

 


Welcome to week 27 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop. The Art With Heart Team are making their way through the Stampin' Colour range, featuring a different colour every week. This week we are featuring Merry Merlot which is in our Neutrals colour family.
You may be joining this blog hop from the very talented Theresa Gerrard or you may be starting here, either way the link to the next blog is at the end of this post.

This week I have used the Angels of Peace stamp set to make my card.


I first stamped the large angel in Versamark on Shimmery White card stock and embossed with Gold Emboss Powder. 


I coloured the image with Merry Merlot, Balmy Blue, So Saffron and Blushing Bride ink and Water Painters. I used my trusty Paper Snips to fussy cut this image.


The stars were stamp in Versamark on Basic White card stock and embossed in White Embossing Powder. I coloured the background with Balmy Blue and Night of Navy ink and the Blending Brushes.


The greeting was stamped in Merry Merlot and cut using the Elegant Tag Punch. The tiny bow is from the Shimmery Gold Ribbon.
The next stop on the blog hop is the amazing blog belonging to the lovely Catherine Proctor.


Catherine is also the coordinator of our blog hops and she has a complete list of tonight's participants if you encounter a problem.

Heart of Christmas week 22

 


Welcome to the final week of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop! 
This week I'm featuring a stamp set and punch that has been in our range for a couple of years so this may be it's last season. The stamp set is called Perfectly Plaid and it co ordinates with the Pine Tree Punch. 


I stamped the tree in Versamark on Just Jade, Shaded Spruce and Mint Macron card stock and embossed with Silver Embossing Powder.


I punched the trees out with the Pine Tree Punch. The white scalloped rectangle was cut using one of the Scalloped Contour Dies. 


The background behind the rectangle is from the In Good Taste DSP. The card base is Shaded Spruce card stock.

As this is the last Heart of Christmas Blog Hop make sure you don't miss a hop. The next stop is the very talented Ros Davidson
