Colour Creations Blog Hop week 6 - Basic Beige Magnolia

It's time for week 6 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. Every week we will be featuring one of the Stampin' Up! colours and this week it's time for Basic Beige which is new addition to the Stampin' Up! colour family.

Basic Beige is a stand alone colour like Basic White and Basic Black. It's a very neutral colour that can be used with just about any of the Stampin' Up! colours. For today's card I have paired it with Mossy Meadow and Lemon Lolly.

I stamped the magnolia image in Crumb Cake ink on Basic Beige card stock. I coloured the base of the petals with a Light Crumb Cake Blends Marker.

The tips of the petals are coloured with a white pencil and the leaves are coloured with Old Olive and Early Espresso pencils. The center of the magnolia is coloured with Daffodil Delight and Crushed Curry pencils.

I cut the textured magnolia die from Mossy Meadow card stock and layered it behind the coloured image. The greeting is from the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder. I brayered the inside of the embossing folder with Crumb Cake ink before putting it through the Stampin Cut and Emboss Machine. I applied Versamark gently to the raised section of the word and then embossed with White Emboss Powder.

I used a piece of Country Lace DSP as the background for the card.

I was so organised this week that I had time to decorate the inside of the card. The magnolia is stamped in Basic Beige on Basic Beige card stock and then layered again on Lemon Lolly card stock.

Make sure you take the time to hop around to all of the participating blogs tonight for lots of Basic Beige inspiration. Next stop in our blog hop is Vicki Boucher.

Colour Creations Blog Hop week 47 - Soft Sea Foam

Hi there, welcome to week 47 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. Every week we have been featuring one of the beautiful Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order. We have nearly finished this round as the new catalogue starts on the first of May. This week we are featuring Soft Sea Foan, a lovely pale mint green from our Subtles Colour Family.

For today's card I have used the Stippled Roses Stamp set. I stamped the main image in Basic Gray and coloured with Blends Markers in Soft Sea Foam, Highland Heather, Fresh Freesia and Old Olive.

The background card front is from the Hello, Irresistible DSP, which is available exclusively in our Online store.

The white leaf sprigs behind the main image were cut with the Meadow Dies. The scallop along the edge of the card is from the Zany Zoo Dies.

This is a really delicate coloured card but the colours have faded a bit in the photos. I was very happy to see that the Stipple Roses Bundle is continuing in the next catalogue, I'm sure it will get regularly used. All of these products are available through my online store. Please contact me with any questions. If you do not already have a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and would like a copy of our new catalogue please drop me a note.

Now it's time to see what my very talented stamping friend Andrea Sargent 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 fabulous host of our Colour Creations Blog Hops and has a complete list of tonight's participants.

Be sure to check in next week when we will be featuring Starry Sky, one of the soon to be retired In Colours.

Happy stamping,

Rachel

Colour Creations Blog Hop Week 3 - Moody Mauve Daisies

Welcome to week 3 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. Every week we have been featuring one of the beautiful Stampin' Up! colours, starting with the new 2023-2025 In Colours. This week we are featuring Moody Mauve. Moody Mauve is lovely soft, dusty pink, that really does have a mauve tinge to it.

For my card this week I have used the Cheerful Daisies Bundle and the Fresh as a Daisy DSP. When I first saw the colour combinations in this DSP I was not sure I liked it, but it's growing on me.

I stamped the daisy outlines in Moody Mauve ink and coloured with my Blends Markers, in Moody Mauve, Bubble Bath and the Colour Lifter. The center of the flowers are stamped in Copper Clay and the leaves in Wild Wheat to match the DSP.

The DSP I used for the background is both sides of the same sheet of DSP.

All of the products used to make this card are available through my online Stampin' Up! store.

Now it's time to see what the very talented Kathryn Ruddick has to share with us. Don't forget to visit all of the Blog Hop stops to see what Moody Mauve creations the rest of the team have to share with us.
