Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop: Week 29 Merry Merlot

Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop: Week 29 Merry Merlot

Welcome to week 28 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop!

Our colour this week is a beautiful new neutral: Merry Merlot.

Because we’re now 1 week until Christmas day I just couldn’t resist making another Christmas Card, one that features Merry Merlot and Tranquil Tide glimmer paper and the Joyous Noel DSP.

Isn’t this glimmer paper stunning!

The stamp set I’ve used for my card is called Peaceful Noel and all these products are part of the Joyous Noel Suite.

I love the font of the sentiments in this stamp set and I’ve stamped both the outside and the inside of my card.

Here’s the inside.

My glittery baubles were a cinch to cut out from the glimmer paper using the detailed baubles thinlits and can you guess what I used to make the holly that sits at the top of each bauble?

The little leaves are from the boxwood wreaths with berries made from red rhinestone jewels.

Art With Heart: Heart of Christmas Week 9 Beautiful Baubles

Art With Heart: Heart of Christmas Week 9 Beautiful Baubles

Welcome to week 9 of our Art With Heart, Heart of Christmas blog hop.

This week I had a play with the “Beautiful Bauble” stamp set. 

This stamp set is just so easy to stamp, to colour in and even to fussy cut, just like I did for my card today. There are matching dies in this bundle but there isn’t a die for the big bauble I used on my card.

I used one of my favourite colour combinations: Real Red and Pool Party, but you can use any colour combination you want with the bauble stamp because baubles come in so many different colours. I stamped my bauble in black, coloured it in using my Stampin’ Blends and then I fussy cut it out.

This stunning background Designer Series Paper with the teeny tiny stars is from a lovely DSP set in the annual catalogue called Twinkle Twinkle DSP.

Of course, I just had to add a little bling to this card so I used my Stitched Shapes framelits to cut out a circle of gold foil. My new “Take a Pick” tool was super helpful for removing individual sequins from the Gold Mini Sequin Trim and adhering them to my card.

I also used some gold metallic thread to decorate my bauble and the big gold sequin at the top of the bauble is from the Metallic Sequin Assortment.
