Welcome to week thirty seven of our Art With Heart 2022-23 Colour Creations blog hop.
This is a weekly blog hop where we showcase the stunning range of Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order over 12 months and this week we are featuring Petal Pink from the Subtles family.
After using so many colours last week, I’ve kept my card deliberately monochrome this week, using just Petal Pink, Basic Black and Very Vanilla, three of the colours in the Abigail Rose 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Paper.
I love Designer Series Papers that have coordinating dies to cut out images – it saves so much stamping time. The Cottage Flower dies not only cut out images from the Cottage Rose stamp set, they also cut out flowers and leaves from this sheet of DSP.
I’ve simply arranged the die cut images in a row over the top of where the Very Vanilla cardstock and Abigail Rose striped DSP meet on my card front.
The “Happy Birthday” sentiment is stamped onto a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock, trimmed with my paper trimmer before adhering to the card front.
The inside of the card and the back of the envelope are decorated with leftover die cut pieces and DSP offcuts.
I was planning on colouring in the roses with my Petal Pink Stampin’ blends, but I really liked the simplicity of the card as it was, so I left the die cut pieces uncoloured.
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Rosa Leyden – I can’t wait to see what Rosa has made this week!

If you live in Australia, you can find and purchase these products in my Stampin’ Up! Online Store once they are available to purchase tomorrow morning.
We’ll be back next Wednesday, February 1, with projects showcasing a much more vibrant pink, Polished Pink.
I hope you can join us then.
Simply gorgeous Cathy. I love the simplicity of your card with the die cut flowers from the DSP. Beautiful xxx
Your card is perfection! The uncoloured flowers look amazing, trailing down the card. The soft, subtle stripes were a great choice for some contrast.
I love these products, but have never used the die that cuts out the DSP pattern … must remedy that, when I get back to crafting! This is lovely, Cath. The uncoloured floral die cuts look crisp and elegant. I really like how you decorated the inside of the card, and the envelope flap, to co-ordinate; nicely done!
Yes, a gorgeous monochromatic card, Cathy. I love how you have placed those flowers over the join of the DSP and the simple sentiment placement is perfect.
Gorgeous card. So elegant and simple. The color is beautiful.
Thank you Doris!
Lovely card Cathy, well done on heading back to the DSP in the annual Catalogue, I tend to forget about them at this time of year. Beautiful monochromatic card.
Cathy I hadn’t noticed that this set has a large die that matches with the DSP to create floral spray. Beautiful and elegant layout.
