Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase week 45 - Seaside Spray

This week the Art With Heart Team are featuring Seaside Spray for our weekly Colour Creation Showcase. Seaside Spray is another of the 2019-2021 In Colours that will be discontinued when the Annual Catalogue finishes on the 3rd of May.

For tonight's card I needed a project that was quick and easy as I was a little time poor this week.

I started with the Sand and Sea DSP, which features Seaside Spray on many of it's sheets.

I turned to my favourite birthday greeting from the Happiest of Birthday stamp set and stamped this in Seaside Spray on Basic White paper.

I cut the greeting out with one of the dies from the new Scalloped Contour dies set that will be available in the 2021-2022 Catalogue. These dies come in numerous sizes and all have different stitching patterns around the edges.

The card base is Seaside Spray. The final embellishment is some Linen Thread around the bottom of the greeting piece.

Good bye Seaside Spray, hopefully you will return in a colour refresh down the track. For more Seaside Spray inspiration from the Art With Heart Team, head to Cathy's blog for a complete list of tonight's participants.

Happy stamping,

Rachel

Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase week 4 - Blackberry Bliss

The Art With Heart Team are back with another Colour Creations Showcase, this week featuring the colour Blackberry Bliss.

This week I have paired Blackberry Bliss with the lighter pink shades of Rococo Rose and Blushing Bride.

The stamp set I have used is Happiest of Birthdays. I placed the largest stamp on the Stamparatus and ink it firstly with Blushing Bride, then the second line with Rococo Rose and the last section with Blackberry Bliss.

This was stamped on Whisper White and cut out using the Stitched Rectangle dies.

For the background Blackberry Bliss I used the dot mask from the Basic Patterns Decorative Masks. I placed some of the the Shimmery White embossing paste on a silicone craft mat and combined a small amount of Blushing Bride ink refill.

I applied this coloured paste to the top left corner of the sheet. I then added some Rococo Rose ink the the paste and applied it to the middle section of the card stock. I added Blackberry Bliss ink refill to the remainder of the paste and then covered the remaining section of the background with this mix.

The ribbon is tied in a bow around the greeting piece.

I have coloured a few of the Rhinestone Jewels with the Blackberry Bliss and Rococo Rose Blends Markers.

The card base is Blushing Bride.
