No Stamping Granny Apple Green Cards
A group of the Art With Heart Team is hopping through the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order and week 25 is all about Granny Apple Green, a bright green that adds freshness and life to a project.
You could say that my “no stamping” cards this week have been bought to you by Stampin Up’s Ephemera packs!
I‘ve used ephemera from the Good Times Mix & Match Ephemera Pack (the wreath and the pear), the Greetings for You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack (the joy sentiment) and the Saying Something Mix & Match Ephemera Pack (the “all my love & thanks to you” sentiment).
Both cards also feature the new Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder (coming soon in November). I love how its stitched design adds gentle texture without overpowering the focal elements.
Granny Apple Colour Combination
My colour combination is inspired by the beautiful watercolour pear from the Good Times Mix & Match Ephemera Pack.
The Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper adds touches of Mossy Meadow and Old Olive too.
Granny Apple Green looks so fresh and really pops against the Early Espresso card bases and the embossed Basic White cardstock layer.
Two “No Stamping” Tent cards
When folded, the card stands upright with the fold along the top edge and the opening at the bottom, making it ideal for display.
A double bow of the Early Espresso & Old Olive Linen Thread bow ties in the organic tones of the pear beautifully. I finished both cards with a few Traditional Sparkling Sequins in gold and green for a touch of shimmer.
