Colour Creations Blog Hop week 50 - Soft Suede Friendly Gnomes

Hello stampers, we have come to the end of our Colour Creation blog hops for this Stampin' Up! year. For week 50 we are featuring Soft Suede, a medium brown colour that unfortunately is being discontinued at the end of April.

For tonight's card I have used the Friendly Gnomes Stamp set and the co ordinating dies.

I love sepia look photos and thought that the Soft Suede colour would be perfect for this effect. I inked the stamps first in Versamark ink and then immediately into Soft Suede ink, before stamping on to Shimmery White card stock. I heat Embossed with Clear Emboss Powder to create a water proof outline for the images.

The images were coloured with Soft Suede ink and Water Colour Painters, in different intensities. I also coloured a few extra flowers from the gnomes beard to use as extra embellishments.

The circles were cut using Stylish Shapes Dies as was the piece of Fancy Flora DSP.

The greeting was stamped in Soft Suede ink with the edge of the circle sponged with a sponge dauber.

Unfortunately many of the Stampin' Up! Products used to make this card are retiring and will only be available until sold out or the end of April. The links for all products are listed below.

Now it's time to see what Rachel Palmieri has to share with us.

Colour Creations Blog Hop week 46 - Smoky Slate Love Cats

Welcome to week 46 of the Colour Creation Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. Each week we have been featuring one of the wonderful Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order. This week we are featuring Smoky Slate, a soft, delicate gray from our Neutrals family.

For my Smoky Slate card I chose the Love Cats stamp set from the Jan to April Mini catalogue.

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the cat image so that I could stamp several times in the same position. I stamped numerous times with Smoky Slate ink and then a couple of times after adding Basic Gray shading.

The short brick wall is Smoky Slate card stock embossed with the Brick and Mortar embossing folder. I highlighted the pattern by sponging Smoky Slate over the embossing.

I cut a scalloped rectangle using one of the Scalloped Contour Dies from Petal Pink card stock. The tiny hearts are cut from Rose Gold metallic Specialty paper and the Conversation Bubble dies.

The background DSP is a piece from the Abigail Rose DSP pack, which is in the Stampin' Up! annual catalogue.

The greeting is from my favourite greeting set, Go To Greetings and was heat embossed in White Embossing Powder on Smoky Slate card stock. The greeting was cut using a Stylish Shape die.

All of the products used to make this card are available from my online Stampin' Up! store. Please contact me with any questions.

Now it's time to be amazed and see what my talented team member Caroline Manwaring has to share with us.

Colour Creations Blog Hop 2022-2024 In Colours - Tahitian Tide

It's Wednesday, which means it's time for the next Colour Creations Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. This week the blog hop features Tahitian Tide which is the last of the 2022-2024 In Colours.

I have made two cards to share with you tonight which feature Tahitian Tide.

For the first card I used the Elephant Parade Bundle.

I stamped one of the elephant images on Fluid 100 Watercolour Paper and coloured with a Water Painter. This was then cut out with one of the Stylish Shapes Dies.

The balloon is cut from the 2022-2024 In Colour Glimmer Paper Pack with the Balloon Bouquet Punch.

The second card I made was a really quick and simple card. I stamped the main wave image from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set in a combination of Tahitian Tide and Bermuda Bay ink. I used my Stamparatus so that I could stamp the image numerous times in exactly the same position.

The greeting was stamped in Tahitian Tide ink and cut out with one of the dies from the Waves Dies set. The small pieces of ribbon are White Crinkled Seam Binding coloured with a Tahitian Tide Blends Marker.

I used lots of crisp white space on both of my cards, I love the look with Tahitian Tide.

Now it's time to see what my lovely team member Theresa Gerrard has to share with us.

If you encounter any issues with the links in our blog head to Cathy Proctor's blog as she is hosting this blog hop and has a complete list of tonight's participants.

Next week we move onto the main Stampin' Up! colours, the first is Balmy Blue.
