Welcome to week thirty-two of our Art With Heart 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop!
This week we are showcasing Melon Mambo, a vibrant pink.
I gifted an ‘experience’ rather than a physical gift to my sister-in-law for her birthday so I printed out a voucher for the experience onto Basic White Cardstock.
I custom made a box to fit the voucher and used strips of cardstock to make a top for the box as I did not have a large enough piece of DSP that matched the colours in the voucher to top the box.
The top of the gift box was created using a square of Basic White Cardstock slightly smaller than the top of the box lid. I covered this square in an adhesive sheet and measured and marked the middle point of the square.
Angled strips of Melon Mambo, Flirty Flamingo, Gorgeous Grape, Tahitian Tide, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight and More Dazzle Specialty Paper were arranged in a pattern to cover the adhesive sheet.
A die cut circle of Melon Mambo cardstock covers the joins in the middle.
A smaller die cut circle of More Dazzle Specialty Paper added a final touch of bling.
A very quick birthday card was created to match, using the Merry Bold & Bright Designer Series Paper.
I’m so looking forward to attending this Festival of Sydney event with my sister-in-law!

Welcome to week thirty-one of our Art With Heart 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop!
This week we are showcasing Lost Lagoon, a beautiful soft green that previously was an In Colour but has now joined the Subtles family as a core colour.
These is a stunning specialty paper in the Holiday Catalogue called the Snowflake Magic 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Specialty Designer Series Paper. It is retiring soon so I really wanted to make a Christmas card with it for this week’s blog.
These Handmade Elements dies are also retiring and work so well with the Snowflake Magic DSP.
The foliage pieces are Lost Lagoon cardstock with Lost Lagoon ink blended over it and then die cut with the Joy of Noel Dies. I’ve also added some silver foil foliage pieces behind the Lost Lagoon.
The Christmas ornament is die cut from silver foil using the Handcrafted Elements dies.
The sentiment is from the Merry & Bright stamp set, stamped in Lost Lagoon.
And the inside of the card has some silver foil too!

I’ve been missing in action the past month, but I was determined to join in the hop this week as it is the very last Heart of Christmas hop for the year. Sharon has done an amazing job hosting our Christmas blog. Thank you Sharon!
After attempting to make a fancy fold that did not work at all, here is super quick and easy Christmas card instead!
The O Holy Night Designer Series Paper forms the perfect background for this simple nativity scene. I’ve paired it with Silver Adhesive-backed Glimmer Paper, Night of Navy card stock and Basic White card stock.
I love the amount of detail in this nativity die from the Night Divine dies.
The Silver Adhesive-backed Glimmer Paper makes working with these detailed dies a breeze – there is no need to muck around with glue.
The glimmery stars in the sky are die cut using the dies from the Stars at Night Hybrid Embossing Folder set.
If you have a pack of the O Holy Night Designer Series Paper and a pack of the Silver Adhesive-backed Glimmer Paper (online only) this design would be ideal for mass production of Christmas cards.
A few extra die cut stars complete the inside of the card.
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Judy May. I can’t wait to see what Judy has made this week.

Welcome to week thirty of our Art With Heart 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop!
This week we are showcasing Lemon Lime Twist, a vibrant yellow green. I couldn’t resist using the Sweet Citrus bundle to showcase this colour in all its fluro glory!
I’ve combined Lemon Lime Twist with two other greens, Granny Apple Green and Mossy Meadow.
I love the way Lemon Lime Twist and Granny Apple Green look even more vibrant against the Mossy Meadow card base.
The Sweet Citrus hybrid embossing folder does all the heavy lifting on this card, creating an incredibly realistic 3D effect.
I can’t stop using the Adhesive-Backed Glitter Sequins on my cards. They are retiring soon and on special now, reduced from $14 to $9.80.
It’s hard to show all the texture on this card in a photo – it really is incredibly lifelike.
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Rachel Palmeri – I can’t wait to see what Rachel has made this week!
