Colour Creations Blog Hop week 36 Pool Party - Waves of the Ocean

 

Welcome to week 36 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop. If you haven't joined us before each week the Art With Heart Team are featuring one of the beautiful Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order. This week it's time to highlight Pool Party, which is a lovely soft blue/green colour from the Subtles colour family.

Pool Party was the perfect colour to experiment with a new early release bundle from the 2022-2023 Catalogue, Waves of Inspiration Bundle. This bundle will be available to customers from the 1st of March, but one of the perks of being demonstrator is that we get to play with new products earlier.

I started with Pool Party card stock and stamped the main wave image in Versamark ink. Instead of using just one colour of Embossing Powder I used a combination of White and Clear Embossing on this image. I wanted to make sure that the white embossing powder was on the tip of the wave to highlight what should be white water, the remainder was patches of clear and white embossing powder.

After heating the embossing powder I used a Blending Brush to add Pool Party and Bermuda Bay ink over the wave image.

The clouds and the greeting panel are all dies in the Waves Dies set and were cut from Basic White card stock.

The ribbon under the greeting panel is the Pool Party Sheer Ribbon. The image was mounted on Bermuda Bay and the card base is Thick Basic White card stock.

It's now time to have a peek at what the very talented Rosa Leyden has to share with us. I'm looking forward to seeing her beautiful Pool Party project. Click on her name or on the graphic below.

Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase week 35 - Pool Party

Here is week 35 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase. This week we are featuring Pool Party. Pool Party is one of our Subtle colours and it's a lovely soft blue-green colour. Today I've combined Pool Party with Pretty Peacock and white. A very simple monochromatic colour scheme, but I love how these two colours work together.

For this card I cut strips 1.5cm wide by 14cm from the A Whale Of A Time DSP and Pool Party and Pretty Peacock.

The center panel is 9cm square and has been shaded with Pool Party ink and the Blending Brushes.

I used the Playful Alphabet to cut Happy from the same papers I used for the background strips. The Birthday is from the Seaside Notions stamp sets. The coral images are from the Seaside Notions stamp set and are stamped in Pool Party and Pretty Peacock ink. I have used a Wink of Stella brush to add a bit of sparkle to the coral.

The twine was wrapped around before attaching the final piece to the card front.

Thanks for visiting and if you have any questions or comments please contact me.

Don't forget to check out the amazing projects from the other Art With Heart Team members by heading to Cathy's blog for a complete list of tonight's participants.

Happy stamping,

Rachel

Art With Heart Colour Creations - Pool Party

This week's Colour Coordination colour is Pool Party.

I pulled out my One For All stamp set and created this birthday card.

The colours I used here are Pool Party, Blueberry Bushel and Lemon Lime Twist. I used my Stamparatus to layer the colours one at a time on to the stamp. The Designer Series Paper used here is Pool Party from the Subtles stack and the Lemon Lime Twist from Gingham Gala stack. The final touches are self adhesive sequins and Blueberry Bushel ribbon. 

For more Pool Party inspiration head over to Cathy's blog for a full list of today's participants.

Happy stampin,
