Welcome to week twenty two 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 Garden Green, from the regal family.
I love making scene cards, so I’ve had my eye on the Waterfall Canyon stamp set for a long time now. When the coordinating Waterfalls dies become available this month as part of the Perfect Partners Promotion, I just couldn’t resist this bundle.
I’ve made a slimline card so I could make an extra long waterfall. The card base base is Garden Green card stock measuring 21 x 28 cm.
Garden Green works very well with so many other colours – today I’ve paired it with colours that work for a nature scene: Crumb Cake, Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, Gray Granite, Pear Pizzazz, Basic Black and Basic White.

The “Adventure” sentiment is not a stamp – it is a sticker from the “Today is the Day” Memories & More card pack, adhered to a scrap of Basic White card stock.
The birds at the top of the card are not stamps either – they are tiny dies from the Waterfall dies.
I love these Waterfall dies, especially the ones that I’ve used for the Gray Granite rocks, the Garden Green grass pieces at the bottom of the waterfall and the Garden Green foliage that sits on the rocks.
The size of the grass dies gives an instant sense of perspective with the Pear Pizzazz tree dies being so much smaller.
I only realised after photographing this that I’ve actually adhered the Crumb Cake rock pieces upside on my card front, LOL! Hopefully it still works?
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Tina Gillespie – I can’t wait to see what Tina has made this week!

What a wonderful scene you’ve created, Cathy and I love that you used a slimline card! The rocks don’t look upside down to me, but maybe I’m missing something?!!!! This is a work of art and would have taken a while to get all the pieces stamped, die cut and put it together, but it looks amazing!
Wow you’ve really highlighted the versatility of Garden Green with your fabulous scenery card Cathy and using that sticker means the card can be used for a multitude of occasions
Lovely scene card Cathy, It really looks beautiful on the longer card for sure. I just wish the weather was warmer so we could get out for an adventure in real life.
A fantastic scene Cathy, it looks like it took a while to put all the pieces together but well worth it.
Gorgeous, Cathy. I love your slimline scene and certainly nothing looks upside down to me. Your colour combo and the way the die cut pieces work together to create an “Adventurous” scene. Xxx
Oooh, this is fabulous!! I love that you’ve used the slimline format so that you could extend the scene – it adds so much drama and scale to the card. The simple sentiment in the centre was the perfect choice.
Garden Green is a fantastic foliage colour, isn’t it? You’ve used it beautifully on your card, Cathy. I couldn’t help but giggle at your sticking the rock pieces upside down … I wouldn’t have noticed, if you hadn’t pointed it out! They still work! I like all the colours you’ve combined in this “adventurous” scene.
