Colour Creations Blog Hop week 2 - Balmy Blue

 

Hello there, I'm back with the second week of the Colour Creations Blog Hop.  Each week we will be featuring one of the Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order. This week we are featuring Balmy Blue.


Balmy Blue screams baby to me so I got to work with the All For Baby Bundle. I started with Balmy Blue card stock and cut the base for a landscape oriented center step card.


Using the onesie die I cut one from Basic White cardstock and the other two are from the You're A Peach DSP. I stamped the white onesie with the star from the All For Baby stamp set in Balmy Blue ink.


I cut the large rectangle from the Scalloped Contours in Basic White card stock. The Balmy Blue background  has been embossed with the Tasteful Textiles 3D embossing folder, but only the top three quarters, as shown below.


The greeting was heat embossed on the bottom section.


The scalloped rectangle is mounted on a piece of Pear Pizzazz card stock that is only slightly larger than the solid area so that it is just visible through the scallops.


The cute teddy bear is stamped in Crumb Cake ink and the bibs on either side of the main panel are cut from Basic White and Pear Pizzazz card stock. The last component is some White Crinkled Seam Binding that was wound around the Balmy Blue piece and a small bow that was attached with a Glue Dot.

Thanks for visiting. Now it's time to head over to Rosa's blog to check out her beautiful project.
