Welcome to week forty-four of our Art With Heart 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop!
Our colour this week is Real Red, a true red from the brights colour family colour.
I’m using the Classic Letters stamp set for my quick and easy card this week. The Classic Letters stamp set is a fabulous alphabet and number set that is one of Stampin’ Up!’s Online Exclusive products. I love the greenery flourishes that can be added to any of the letters or numbers.
I was hoping to achieve a slightly vintage vibe with my Real Red, Petal Pink and Tahitian Tide colour combination. Does this colour combination give you vintage vibes?
The gorgeous spotted Petal Pink DSP is from another online exclusive product – the Flowering Zinnias 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Paper.
The slimline shape of my card was dictated by the finished size and shape of the my stamped “Hello”. I then stamped greenery flourishes in Tahitian Tide before adding dots of Pearlised Enamel Effects Basics lacquer in Real Red.
It’s hard to photograph the shine and dimension of the Pearlised Enamel Effects Basics – a side on view gives a better idea of what this card looks like in real life.
The Petal Pink flower embellishments are from the Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers and the Tahitian Tide Bakers twine comes from the 2022–2024 In Color Baker’s Twine Pack.
All of the 2022–2024 In Color products (including Tahitian Tide) are about to retire so stock up now before they sell out!
I’m very excited to be heading to the Stampin’ Up! OnStage convention in Melbourne first thing tomorrow morning so hopefully by next Wednesday I’ll be able to share some of the brand new 2024-26 In Colours to share with you!
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Rachel Palmieri. I can’t wait to see what Rachel has made this week!

Catherine Proctor – you are here!
We’ll be back showcasing Shaded Spruce next Wednesday, 20th March. I hope you can join us then.
Such a beautiful card Cathy and it definitely has vintage vibes about it. Great use of the leaf sprigs and the enamel effects.
Oh, I love this slimline card with this stamp set. What a perfect way to showcase how it can be used. A wonderful card, my friend.
I love this so much! Vintage yes but so beautiful in all the details. Love the colour combo. Gorgeous card!
Very vintage I’d say too Cathy. Love those dots in the red enamel, really ties in with your other embellishments.
Lovely card Cathy. The Lovely Letters stamps look quite elegant down the middle of your card and the addition of the leaf sprigs in Tahitian Tide add a great pop of colour
Your beautiful card definitely has a vintage vibe, Cath. It makes me think of any time period between the 1920s and the 1950s. Beatiful colour combo, and design – and the enamel effects detail looks fab!
