Colour Creations Blog Hop week 20 - Crumb Cake Layers of Beauty

 

Hi stampers, I'm back from a wonderful three holiday, sailing home from Singapore.

I'm excited to be joining in for week 20 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop. This week we are featuring Crumb Cake, a very neutral sand colour from the Neutrals Colour Family, that I love and use a lot.

I have used the Layers of Beauty Bundle again. This time for something different I stamped the main image twice on Crumb Cake card stock in Early Espresso ink. I used the Layers of Beauty Masks to apply the colour. For the first mask I used White Craft ink and a Sponge Dauber.

The other colours I used for the flowers are Pretty In Pink and Berry Burst (masks 2 and 3). The leaves are Lemon Lime Twist and Granny Apple Green (masks 4 and 5). The small Daisies are Daffodil Delight and Cajun Craze.

I cut out one of the images with the large die and one with the single rose die. I cut the large image in half by hand so that I could divide it top and bottom of the card.

I added some leaves in Old Olive that were cut with the Layers of Beauty dies.

The card front is a piece from the Country Woods DSP pack. There is a thin mat in Pretty In Pink behind the wood grain piece.

The greeting from the Country Birdhouse set is stamped in Crumb Cake on Pretty in Pink card stock.

I hope I have shown you a different way to use Crumb Cake card stock. This technique would also work on other medium coloured card stock like Smoky Slate and Lost Lagoon. Have a play and I would love to see what you come up with.

Now it's time to hop over to the next stop on our blog hop, which is Cathy Proctor. Cathy is also the amazing host of our Colour Creations Blog Hops and has a complete list of tonight's participants if you have any issues following along.

Thanks for visiting and I will be back next Monday with the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop.

Happy stamping,

Rachel
