Heart of Christmas week 14 Festive Foliage

 

It's time for week 14 of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop. Every week the Art With Heart Team are sharing heaps of Christmas inspiration with you.

This week I have used one of the Christmas stamps from the annual catalogue. It's a background stamp called Festive Foliage. 

I inked the stamp in Versamark ink and then heat embossed with Gold Emboss Powder. I used my Stamparatus to stamp the large image as it makes it much easier to reink and restamp the image if it doesn't stamp perfectly the first time.

I also stamped and heat embossed the greeting from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set in Gold Emboss Powder. Our Embossing Powders come in either a Basics Collection with Black, White and Clear and a Metallic Collection with Gold, Silver and Copper.

I cut out the greeting using one of the dies from the Pierced Blooms Dies. I love the border of dots that is part of this very versatile dies. It's a great size for so many greetings. 

I coloured the leaves with the Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen Blends Markers.

A piece of Evening Evergreen Chevron Ribbon is behind the greeting. The final embellishment is a few Red Rhinestones scattered around the card.

All of the products I have used for this card are listed below with links that will take you to my online store if you are interested in purchasing.

For more Christmas inspiration it's time to visit the very talented Caroline Manwaring to what she has to share with us.

If you encounter a problem with the blog hop head to Tina Gillespie's blog for a complete list of tonight's participants.

Happy stamping,

Rachel

Heart of Christmas - Week 16

This is the last week of the Heart of Christmas blog hops for this year. It's been great fun sharing my Christmas creations with you. 

This week I have a non traditional coloured Christmas card to share with you.

The stamp sets I have used are Shine Bright and Itty Bitty Christmas.

The Rococo Rose card base has been embossed using the 3D Subtle Embossing folder. A strip of Mint Macron DSP has been placed down the side of the card. 

The Christmas tree from Shine Bright has been heat embossed in Silver Emboss Powder on Whisper White card stock. I coloured this image with Blends Markers in Rococo Rose, Mint Macron, So Saffron and Crumb Cake. 

The Christmas tree is mounted on Seaside Spray card stock. The Star shapes behind the tree and greeting have been cut from the Christmas Layers dies. The greeting is from the Itty Bitty Christmas set and has also been heat embossed in Silver. A rhinestone on top of the tree is the final touch.

For the last time this year you can see what the other Art With Heart Team members have been creating by visiting Judy May's blog for a full list of tonight's participants.

Thank  you hopping by and I hope you a wonderful Christmas.

Happy stamping,

Rachel

Art With Heart Colour Creations - Soft Seafoam

Hello again, we're back for another Art With Heart Colour Creation Blog Hop. This time we're featuring the Subtle colour Soft Seafoam. 

For my card I used the Sea of Textures Bundle and the Seaside Textured embossing folder.

I heat embossed the octopus on Tranquil Tide and cut him out with the coordinating dies.

The seaweed has been cut from Tranquil Tide and Soft Seafoam and the sand dollar from Crumb Cake.

The school of tiny fish have been cut using another die in the set from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper.

The octopus makes another appearance inside the card, along with a bit more seaweed.

For more Soft Seafoam inspiration head to Cathy's blog for a full list of today's participants.

Don't forget that tomorrow is the day the Hugs From Shelli Paper Pumpkin Kits goes on sale. I think these are going to sell out very quickly so don't delay if you wish to order one.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or orders.

Happy Stampin,
Rachel
