Welcome to week twenty seven of our Art With Heart 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop!
This week we are showcasing Granny Apple Green, a vibrant clear green colour that sits somewhere between Old Olive and Parakeet Party in depth of colour saturation.
I’ve used the Apple Harvest stamp set with its coordinating dies, the Apple Blossom dies. These dies have retired but are on sale in the Clearance rack at an absolute bargain price of $24.40, reduced from $61.
My apples are stamped in Tuxedo Memento ink and then coloured in using Stampin’ Up! Blends in Granny Apple Green and Real Red.
The Basic White card stock layer has been die cut using one of the Scalloped Contour dies and the back of the envelope stamped with another image from the Apple Harvest stampset.
I like the crisp contrast of the white against the vibrant red and the green.
I briefly considered adding some bling or a bow of ribbon, however I decided I really liked the bold simplicity of the card as it was.
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Kate Morgan – I can’t wait to see what Kate has made this week!
If at any time you find a broken link, you can find the complete list of all participants below.

Next Wednesday, 8th November, we’ll be back showcasing Gray Granite or you can join us on Monday night for some Christmas inspiration.
I hope you can join us then.
The boldly coloured apples are amazing against the white scalloped edge die cut. I agree, it didn’t need any extra embellishments, it is just a standout image it and I love that you popped it up on dimensionals.
I too adore the bold simplicity of your card Cathy. The contrast of white against Granny Apple Green and with the red apples is brilliant. A lovely colour combo. Great colouring too. So wonderful xxx
Those apples look good enough to eat! The bright colours are gorgeous and beautifully coloured Cathy. A very sweet thank you card.
Those lovely red apples look so good with Granny Apple Green, Cath. I, too, love the look of the bold colours against crisp white. Your choice of stamps and dies is lovely, and there’s no need for further embellishments. So pretty.
