Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase Week 5 Blushing Bride

Hello stampers, welcome to week 5 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase, this week featuring the lovely soft Blushing Bride. Blushing Bride is in our Subtle colour collection and as you will see it co ordinates perfectly with lots of our other Stampin' Up! colours.

To make my cards today I used the Blossoms in Bloom Bundle.

I didn't realise I'd used such similar colours to last weeks Blackberry Bliss card until I did the colour swatches. Blushing Bride and Blackberry Bliss is one of my favourite colour duos.

For this card I used the dies in the Many Layered Blossoms Dies. For the more detailed top layer I cut one from Blushing Bride and one from Mint Macaron. I trimmed both of these so that the leaves are removed from the Blushing Bride piece and the Mint Macaron piece.

The bottom layer of the dies was cut from Vellum card stock. The coloured detailed dies were attached to the Vellum layer with the Multipurpose Glue.

The greeting was stamped in Blackberry Bliss.

The second card uses the Blossoms in Bloom Stamp Set. I used the Stamparatus to complete this card. I attached the main stamp to the Stamparatus plate and inked it with Blushing Bride ink. I added Rococo ink to the edges of the flowers with a Sponge Dauber. I stamped this onto Whisper White card stock. I then positioned the three leaves on the Stamparatus plate and ink with Pear Pizzazz ink and stamped.

I repositioned the three leaves and repeated to process. Next I positioned the two small flowers on the Stamparatus and inked in Seaside Spray. The center of the flowers was ink with a sponge dauber and Misty Moonlight ink. The center of the flowers were stamped in Crushed Curry ink.

The greeting is stamped in Blushing Bride. One of the small flower dies was cut from Blushing Bride card stock. The mat is Rococo Rose and the card base is Blushing Bride.
