Art With Heart Colour Creations - Cajun Craze

Today the Art with Heart Team are featuring Cajun Craze from our Regals colour family.

This colour always makes me think of Autumn, so here are two projects featuring leaf images.

The technique I have used for both these cards is called Black Ice. The leaf image is from the Rooted in Nature stamp set. The copper foil sheets coordinate beautifully with Cajun Craze.

The second card features the leaf image from the Blended Seasons stamp set which is a special release, only available to customers for the month of August. This set has coordinating framelits that have the most amazing shaped dies, check them out in the supplies list below. Great set for all year round.

To give this card a little more interest I have coloured the leaves with Blends Markers. This is usually a no-no with Stazon Ink, but I was very careful not to colour over the lines(too much).

Don't forget the amazing joining offer, ends 31st of July, contact me for more details.

I hope you've enjoyed my Cajun Craze cards, for more inspiration head to Catherine's Blog for a full list of today's participants.

Happy Stampin,

Rachel

Art With Heart Colour Creations - Blushing Bride

Finally back with another AWHT Colour Creations entry. This week we are featuring Blushing Bride.
The set I am using is called Blended Seasons and it is a Special Release that is only available to customers for the month of August. This set has coordinating Thinlits that include the shape the greeting is on. As a demonstrator I got to have a play with it a month early.

I paired Blushing Bride with Copper Embossing Powder on Shimmery White cardstock, which is a great option to watercolour paper if you want to use Aquapainters. The ink colours I used were Blushing Bride (of course) and Soft Sea Foam.

Here's a closer look at the Copper Embossing.

For a complete list of the participants in this Blog Hop, head to Cathy Proctor's blog.

Hope you enjoy our ccreations,

Happy stampin,

Rachel

Art With Heart Blog Hop - Casing the 2018-2019 Catalogue

This month the Art With Heart Team are featuring cards that have been CASED from the new 2018-2019 catalogue. Cased, in this instance means Copied and Share Everything.
If you would like a copy of the 2018 - 2019 annual catalogue, contact any of the girls on the blog hop and we will get in touch with you.

The first card I chose to case is on page 105 in the catalogue. I love the Healing Hugs set, and wanted to use my new Stitched All Around Thinlits so I combined them on this card. I used Lovely Lipstick instead of Coastal Cabana.

The second card I cased is from page 48 in the new catalogue and features the P.S. I Love You set.

The greetings in this set suit a range of occasions. I often case the sample cards in the catalogue to get a feel for the set before feeling confident enough to make my own creations with a new set.

Below is a complete list of team members participating in the blog hop. Next on the list is the amazing Tina Gillespie.

Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop - Berry Burst

This week the Art With Heart Team are featuring Berry Burst in their Colour Creation blog hop.

I chose to use the Healing Hugs stamp set. I stamped and cut out two of the floral elements and three of the leaf sets. These Distinkive stamp sets make it soooo easy to get a great 3D effect in your stamping with just one application. All of the images used in this card are included in the Healing Hugs stamp set.
