Granny Apple Green Thank You Card

Granny Apple Green Thank You Card

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!

Stampin Up Flirty Flamingo Card – Week 20 AWH Colour Creations

Stampin Up Flirty Flamingo Card – Week 20 AWH Colour Creations

Welcome to week twenty 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 Flirty Flamingo from the Brights family.

Tonight’s card features another new die set from the Perfect Partners Promotion – the Apple Blossom dies that coordinate with the Apple Harvest stamp set.

My slimline card was inspired by some of the design elements in this card that created by one of the amazing Stampin’ Up! Artisan Design Team members, Stesha Bloodhart in the USA.

Because I went away for a few nights over the weekend I’ve run out of time this week and made my card just before the blog went live tonight. I do apologise for the quality of photography as I had to photograph my card with overhead lights on.

The slimline Crumb Cake card base is topped with a white card stock layer that has been embossed with the Typeworn Type Embossing Folder before a dusting of Flirty Flamingo was added a blending brush.

The apple blossom flowers, leaves and stems are die cut from Basic White cardstock using the Apple Blossom dies and then coloured with Soft Suede, Mossy Meadow and Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends.

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!
