Welcome to week twenty nine of our Art With Heart 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop!
This week we are showcasing Highland Heather, a lovely soft purple colour from the subtles family. Can you guess the other colours I’ve paired it with on my thank you card?
There are actually just four colours on this card: Highland Heather, Night of Navy, Lost Lagoon and Basic White.
I’ve used a blending brush to achieve different shades of purple with Highland Heather ink. I die cut the coloured cardstock using flower dies from the Around The Bend Dies.
The leaves have been cut from the Lost Lagoon Soft Shimmer 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Paper Combo Pack, on sale for three days, reduced to $15.40. Aren’t these colours just stunning together?
It’s hard to capture the soft shimmer of this specialty paper in a photo, but it looks amazing in real life.
The white heat embossed thank you sentiment is from the Go To Greetings stamp set.
The Fresh Freesia gems from the Tinsel Gems Three-Pack are the finishing touch.
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Rachel Woollard – I can’t wait to see what Rachel has made this week!

Next Wednesday, 22nd November, we’ll be back showcasing Lemon Lime Twist or you can join us on Monday night for some Christmas inspiration.
I hope you can join us then.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. I love your card Cathy. The different shades of Highland Heather are delightful with your gorgeous colour combo. Your use of the Around the Bend dies is gorgeous. I must dig out this bundle. xxx
Beautiful, Cathy. I love that you used Blending Brushes to create different tones of Highland Heather, for the flowers. The shimmery leaves are gorgeous, the colour combination is lovely, and I really like that you used dies I forget I have! Thanks for the inspiration. x
Absolutely beautiful in those colours Cathy.
Stunning colour combination Cathy, I can imagine the beautiful shimmer from the Soft Shimmer Specialty DSP
Such a pretty card, Cathy. Those flowers are lovely and the way you have used the Around the Bend dies, to place them across the top of the card. Those shimmer papers look beautiful and I love the variation in colour that you achieved using the Blending Brushes. The White embossed sentiment is very crisp too!
