Art With Heart Colour Creation Showcase week 40 - Real Red

 

This is the 40th week of the Art With Heart Colour Creation Showcase. Every week for the last 40 weeks we have been featuring one of Stampin' Up!s beautiful colours in alphabetical order. This we are featuring Real Red. Real Red is a true, rich red that has been in our range for as long as I have been with Stampin' Up!

I have made two cards this week as I wanted to show you the versatility of this stunning colour.

The first colour scheme I'm using is a feminine combination of Real Red with Petal Pink and Flirty Flamingo.

I used the Fancy Phrases stamp set to make this delicate floral card. I stamped the main image in Basic Gray for a more subtle effect.

I coloured the flowers and the background with Blends Markers. The colours I used are listed below.

The mat I have used is of course Real Red and the card base is Petal Pink. The two ribbons across the card are the same colours.

The greeting also comes from the Fancy Phrases stamp set. I have heat embossed it in white on Real Red card stock. I cut the greeting with one of the Tasteful Labels Dies.

I even found time this week to stamp and colour the inside of my card. I don't do this often enough, but it really finishes off the cards beautifully.

For the second card I chose a masculine colour scheme of Real Red, Misty Moonlight and Rich Razzleberry. The stamp set I used is Moving Along, which can be found in the 2020-21 Annual Catalogue.

I stamped lots of the cars in Memento Black ink. Then I dug out my Stamparatus and stamped some cars in reverse so that I could have cars driving in both directions. I used 13 cars in total. I coloured the cars in a mixture of Real Red, Misty Moonlight and Rich Razzleberry.

Once they were coloured I fussy cut all of the cars. I arranged the cars on the Basic Black background so that the colours were fairly evenly spread.

The greeting on this card is from the You Are Amazing stamp set. I stamped the speech bubble in Real Red then heat embossed the greeting in white embossing powder. I then fussy cut the speech bubble and attached it with Dimensionals.

I attached some of the cars with glue and a few with Dimensionals to add a bit of height to the card.

Again I had time to stamp the inside of the card. I stamped a row of cars along the bottom of the inside and coloured them with Blends Markers.

The mat is Misty Moonlight and the card base is Real Red. I used a thin strip of Rich Razzleberry card stock along the bottom of the background piece.

I hope I've inspired you to create some projects with beautiful Real Red. For more Real Red inspiration head to Cathy's blog for a complete list of tonight's participants.

Happy stamping,
