Colour Creations Blog Hop week 4 Pebbled Path Sweet and Precious

 

Hi stampers, it's time for week 4 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. Every week we have been featuring one of the fabulous Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order. This week we are up to Pebbled Path which is the fourth of the 2023-2025 In Colours. I have been using Pebbled Path as my new favourite base colour so it took some thinking to work out how to feature this lovely colour on my card.

I have been using Pebbled Path as my new favourite base colour so it took some thinking to work out how to feature this lovely colour on my card.
I chose my new Sweet and Precious stamp set and in particular the sloth image.


I coloured the sloths with Pebbled Path and Gray Granite Blends Markers. The tree is coloured with a combination of Pecan Pie, Crumb Cake, Old Olive and Granny Apple Green Blends.


The main image is cut with a Deckled Rectangle Die. To add a bit of texture to the card I cut another Deckled Rectangle from Pebbled Path In Colour Luster Speciality Paper. This paper has a wonderful sparkly finish.


The background paper and the strip across the front is from the 2023-2025 In Colour 6"x6" DSP pack.
All of the products used to make this card are available through my online store, the links are below.

Now it's time to see what my super talented friend Sharon Davern has to share with us.

If you have any issues with the links in our hop please head to Cathy Proctor's blog as she is the amazing host of our blog hops and has a complete list of tonight's participants.

Colour Creations Blog Hop week 45 - Shaded Spruce

 


Welcome to week 45 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. For week 45 we are featuring Shaded Spruce, a dark, rich green from the Regals Colour Family.

Usually I use Shaded Spruce for trees and foliage, and I guess seaweed is still foliage but under water. I used the A Wish and A Fish stamp set and punch for this week's card.


I stamped the seaweed in Shaded Spruce and also Parakeet Party ink. As I wanted the Shaded Spruce images to be in the background I cut a mask of the seaweed image, stamped the Parakeet Party images, then masked them before stamping the Shaded Spruce images.


The fishies were stamped in Stazon Ink on Silver Foil Paper and punched out using the matching punch.


To colour the background I used a Blending Brush and Tahitian Tide Ink. I added some water drops with a Water Painter and some splatter from a Wink of Stella Pen for added sparkle.
I also made another quick card using the Regency Park DSP and the Basic Borders Dies


The flowers are stamped in Bashful Blue and again punched out with the co ordinating punch.

All of the products used to make these cards are available from my Stampin' Up! online store.


Now it's time to see what my very talented team member Kate Morgan has to share with you. Prepare to be amazed!

Come back next week when we will be featuring Smoky Slate, a lovely soft gray in the Neutrals family. We only have three more weeks to go until we have finished the current range of Stampin' Up! colours. This means it's almost time for the new Annual Catalogue, yay! Exciting times to come and more new colours to feature.

Colour Creations Blog Hop week 37 - Petal Pink Park

 


Hello stamping friends, I've finally made it back to the Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. Every week the team have been continuing to feature one of the beautiful Stampin' Up! colours. This week we are up to Petal Pink, which is a delicate peach pink that is in the Subtle Colour family.
Petal Pink is used in many of the current Designer Series Papers so I chose to feature the Regency Park DSP from the Jan to June Mini Catalogue. Regency Park DSP co ordinates with both the Petal Park Punch Bundle and the Sentimental Park Stamp and Dies Bundle, both of which I have used on my card.

I matched the colours of the flowers and leaves to one of the sheets of DSP. The center of the flowers were coloured by hand with the Mango Melody and Night of Navy Blends Markers.


To match the leaves I stamped the outline in Shaded Spruce ink and then stamped off the stamp for the solid image that colours in the leaves.


The flowers were cut out using the co ordinating punch and the leaves were fussy cut.


Whilst I had all of the supplies out on my desk I was inspired to crank out one more card.




I'm very happy to have made it back for the blog hop, hopefully I'll be back next week with the next beautiful Stampin' Up! colour, Polished Pink.

Now it's time to see what amazing creation Di Furniss has to share with us.
