Gorgeous Grape Presents

Hi stampers I have a very sparkly Gorgeous Grape card to share with you today. Before you tell me that we don't have Glimmer Paper in Gorgeous Grape, I'll tell you that you are correct.

Shhhh I cheated a bit. I started with a piece of Highland Heather Glimmer Paper from the Three Colour Glimmer Pack. I used a Sponge Dauber and applied Gorgeous Grape ink until I had a piece of Gorgeous Grape coloured glimmer paper.

I wrapped some ribbon around the square and attached to a white Deckled Rectangle, that was then attached to a Gorgeous Grape Deckled Rectangle.

These were then attached to a Highland Heather card base. The greeting is from the Beach Days stamp set and is stamped in Gorgeous Grape.

Thanks for visiting,

Rachel

Colour Creations Blog Hop week 11 - Basic Gray Level Complete

Hello stampers, it's time for week 11 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. Every Wednesday evening we have been featuring one of the Stampin' Up! colours. This week all of our projects feature Basic Gray, a versatile dark gray from the Neutrals colour family.

For card's today I used the Level Complete stamp set. I was inspired by this sample card from the catalogue.

I quite regularly use the samples in the catalogue for inspiration if I'm struggling. I reversed the colours by stamping the controller image numerous times on Basic Gray card stock with Versamark ink and White embossing powder.

To highlight the other buttons on the controllers I stamped the image on Real Red, Azure Afternoon, Garden Green and Daffodil Delight. I fussy cut the individual buttons with Paper Snips. These teeny tiny pieces were then glued to the Basic Gray card front.

The greetings were stamped on Real Red and Azure Afternoon with Memento Black ink.

All of the products used to make this card are available from my online store.

Now it's time to see what my lovely team member Rachel Palmieri has to share with us. Click on her name or the image below.

Colour Creations Blog Hop week 30 - Happiness Abounds Watercolour Mint Macaron

It's Wednesday evening and the Art With Heart Team are back with another Colour Creations Blog Hop, this week featuring Mint Macaron. Mint Macaron it a lovely soft gray/green from our Subtles colour family.

This week's card was inspired by a couple of cards done by a team member Andrea Sargent earlier this year. I've used similar techniques but a different colour scheme.

The colours used to make this card were of course Mint Macaron for the card base, leaves and the masked background, and Petal Pink, Calypso Coral and very pale Polished Pink for the flowers.

I heat embossed all of the flowers, leaves and the greeting in Gold Embossing Powder and then coloured the flowers and leaves with Water Painters. The greeting is from the Go To Greetings set and has been cut out with one of the Tailor Made Tag dies. I coloured a small piece of White Crinkled Seam binding with the Pale Polished Pink Blends Marker to go through the tag hole.

I used one of the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks and a blending brush to add some Mint Macaron ink to the Very Vanilla card front. The mat behind the Very Vanilla is Evening Evergreen card stock.

Once again I had to add a couple of my favourite embellishments, the Brushed Brass Butterflies.

Now it's time to see what the other Art With Heart Team members have to share with you. The next hop is Rachel Palmieiri, I'm looking forward to seeing what she has to share with us.

Happy stamping,

Rachel
