Welcome to week thirty-six of our Art With Heart 2024-25 Colour Creations blog hop!
This week we’re featuring Moody Mauve, one of the 2023–2025 In Colors. This soft, sophisticated mauve colour has a touch of dusky warmth, throwing shades of muted pink and subtle purple.
For this week’s card I’m using another Sale-a-bration, a stamp and die bundle called the Heart Shaped bundle which is a FREE Sale-a-bration item you can select with any $200 you spend during Sale-a-bration (7th January – 28th February).
I coloured two pieces of cardstock with Moody Mauve and was amazed at the difference in colour.
The darker heart on the left was coloured using a blending brush and ink from the ink pad. The paler heart on the right was water coloured using a water painter and ink from the same Moody Mauve ink pad!
I went with the paler heart to create my ombre Mood Mauve card.
This gorgeous DSP is from the Wildly flowering DSP. It has a wonderful vintage feel.
I’ve used two more Sale-a-bration products on my card. The ribbon is the Fresh Freesia 3/8″ (1 cm) Seam Binding Ribbon (you can select this for FREE with any $100 you spend during Sale-a-bration). I’ve used my light Moody Mauve Stampin’ Blend to colour it.
The other Sale-a-bration item is the Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins (you can select this for FREE with any $100 you spend during Sale-a-bration).
I’ve used the Bubble Bath sequins around the edge of the middle water coloured heart but they are very hard to capture in a photograph!
The “thank you” sentiment is from the Heart Shaped stamp set that is part of the Heart Shaped bundle.
Now it’s time to hop in over to our next participant, the lovely Rachel Palmieri. I can’t wait to see what Rachel has made this week!

This card has a lovely vintage feel to it that I’m really loving. So pretty.
I love the three hearts layered up on your card front Cathy. The water coloured heart is very pretty too,nice way to get a variation in colour.
Love this super sweet card, Cathy!
Cathy the soft ombré colours used in your card are gorgeous and I love your card design.
Such a pretty card, Cathy! It’s interesting to see the variation in colour of Moody Mauve ink when applied to card differently. I love how you’ve put everything together, and added the gorgeous sequins and seam binding bow.
Gorgeous card Cathy. Very clever idea to use watercolour and a Blending Brush to get different shades of Moody Mauve.
