Hello stamping friends, it's time for week 22 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. Every week we have been featuring one of the Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order. This week we are featuring Daffodil Delight, a bright and cheerful colour from the Brights Color Family.

Today's card uses the Country Flowers stamp set that was coloured with Blends Markers. The colours I used are listed below.



I stamped the teapot on a piece of Country Woods DSP and the fussy cut it.


The background papers are Country Woods and Hello, Irresistible.



I cut the papers with Perennial Postage Dies. The card base is a piece of Crumb Cake card stock.

Heart of Christmas week 8 - Decorative Trees

 


Welcome to week 8 of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop.Every week the Art With Heart Team are inspiring you with fabulous handmade Christmas cards using Stampin' Up! products.

This week I have a fairly non-traditional Christmas card to share with you.
I have used the Decorative Trees Bundle and paired it with the Country Woods DSP. 


The snowflake Christmas Tree was cut from white Glimmer paper from the Berry Burst, Old Olive and White Glimmer paper which is one of our Online Exclusives. The base colour is Boho Blue. I'm going to miss this colour when it finishes with this catalogue.


I used the tag die from the Merriest Trees dies and embossed it with on of the 3D Basics Dies, also in our Online store.


The greeting was heat embossed in white on three different card stock colours, Smoky Slate, Petal Pink and Boho Blue. I split all of the lines of the greeting, fussy cut the MERRY and then combined the different colours.


The mat behind the Country Woods DSP is Misty Moonlight and the card base is Smoky Slate.

Now it's time to see what the amazing Sharon Davern has to share us.


Sharon is also the fabulous host of our Christmas Blog Hop and has a complete list of tonight's participants if you are having any issues with the links.

Heart of Christmas week 7 - Sentimental Wishes



Hello, welcome to week 7 of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. After my lovely journey home from Singapore I have another Christmas card to share with you. I love colouring in any form so as soon as I saw this stamp set, Sentimental Christmas, it was on my wish list.


For something a little different I stamped the stocking image on Basic Beige card stock. I dug out my much neglected Water Color Pencils and got to work. It's a little hard to see in this photo but I love the effect of the white pencil on any colour card stock. The other colours used were Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Garden Green, Blue and Crushed Curry.


I cut out the image with the coordinating dies. The three layers behind the image were cut using Deckled Rectangle Dies. The Basic Beige Layer was embossed with the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder.


I embossed the greeting in White Embossing Powder on Cherry Cobbler card stock and then fussy cut it by hand. The final embellishment was a green twine bow.
All of the products used for  my card are available through my online store.

Now it's time to hop the the next stop in our blog hop and see what my super talented stamping friend Andrea Sargent has to share with us.
