Colour Creations week 8 - Lemon Lolly

 

Hello stamping friends, welcome to week 8 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. Every week we are featuring one of the Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order. This week we are featuring one of the new colours that entered the Stampin' Up! colour range this year, Lemon Lolly.

I have two cards to share with you tonight. The first card uses the Zany Zoo Bundle.

I stamped the racoon image in Memento Black ink on Basic White card stock. I coloured the image with Smoky Slate Blends Markers and highlights with the Colour Lifter Marker.

On the card front I used one of the Foursquare Masks, Lemon Lolly ink and a Blending Brush to add a pattern.

I mounted the racoon on a tag die cut that was embossed with one of the Online Exclusives 3D Embossing Folders from the 3pack. I cut four balloons from Lemon Lolly, Basic White and Daffodil Delight.

The greeting from Go To Greetings was stamped in Smoky Slate on Basic White card stock and each word was cut out using the Stylish Shapes Dies.

For the second card I cut out the letters for HAPPY from Lemon Lime Twist, Lemon Lolly, Azure Afternoon, Fresh Freesia and Berry Burst card stock.

The card front is a piece of Bright & Beautiful DSP. I mounted the letters on a piece of Basic White card stock cut using a Scalloped Contour Die.

I cut out some more balloons from the Beautiful Balloons Dies in Azure Afternoon, Fresh Freesia and Lemon Lolly card stock and used some small pieces of white twine as the balloon strings.

I stamped the birthday greeting from the Best Ever stamp set in Berry Burst ink on Lemon Lolly card stock. The final touch was a few sequins from the Loose Silver Sequins pack. They were attached with some Multipurpose Glue.

All of the products used to make these cards are available from my online store, the links are below.

New Cheerful Daisies Bundle

It's nearly time for a new Stampin' Up! catalogue and one of the perks of being a demonstrator is receiving pre order products before they are available to customers.

This first collection on cards was made using the new Cheerful Daisies Bundle and the co ordinating DSP, Fresh as a Daisy.

This year Stampin' Up! are having a colour refresh. There are 11 colours leaving the colour range and 11 new ones. 7 of them are returning favourites, you can see them all here and 4 are brand new colours which you can see here.

To colour the daisies I used Bubble Bath(pale pink), and Berry Burst. The background DSP has Pretty Peacock and Garden Green.

• 

For the next card I used Pebbled Path, one of the new In Colours and Lemon Lolly which is a beautiful soft yellow.

I coloured the center of the flowers with Wild Wheat which is another of the new In Colours.

The last card I have to share with you today has three differently coloured daisies. The top flowers are coloured with Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral and Melon Mambo. The center of the flowers are Orchid Oasis. The middle flower is Melon Mambo and Orchid Oasis, with Orchid Oasis in the center also. The lower flowers are Pumpkin Pie and Melon Mambo, with Orchid Oasis and Pebbled Path in the centers, The leaves are cut from Garden Green and the card base is Pebbled Path with Layering Designs Vellum behind the flowers.

 I hope you're as excited about these new products as I am. I'll be back in a few days with some more samples. All of these products are available from the 2nd of May.

Please contact me with any questions.

Happy stamping,

Rachel
