Welcome back to our Colour Creations Showcase as we continue our showcase of over 50 beautiful Stampin’ Up! colours in alpha order.
This week we are showcasing the lightest pink in the Stampin’ Up! colour range, Petal Pink.
I’ve used products from the Fine Art Floral suite today, as well as the the Blushing Bride and Whisper White twine that comes in the Snail Mail Twine combo pack.
After showcasing Pear Pizzazz last week I realised it was a colour I have overlooked and neglected so I’ve included it in my colour palette today, along with Basic White, Crumb Cake, Flirty Flamingo, and of course, our colour of the week, Petal Pink.
I love the two-step stamping of the flowers in the Art Gallery stamp set – there are so many different colour combinations and looks you can achieve with the two-step stamping stamps and even the single step stamps in this set give you such a wonderful water coloured effect. They really make you look like an artist!!!
Did you notice the stunning Basic White embossed card stock layer on the Crumb Cake card on the left? This is a new embossing folder called painted texture 3D embossing folder. It really does look like paint!
I used the marker technique on this card because this floral image is single step stamping. Even though the Art Gallery stamp set is photopolymer you can still colour different sections with your markers to stamp in multiple colours on the one stamp.
Under the floral image is another beautiful product from the Fine Art Floral Suite – Golden Garden Specially Acetate Sheet. The image on this acetate is gold on one side and silver on the other. I’ve used the gold side on this card – here’s a closer look at the pattern.
On the other card I’ve flipped the acetate over to the silver side and the Basic White card stock layer is embossed using the Tin Tile embossing folder which matches the pattern on the acetate really well.
The large floral image is two step stamping and all of these floral images have been die cut out using the co-ordinating Floral Gallery Dies.
The “Happy Birthday” sentiment and the die I’ve used to cut it out are also from the Art Gallery Bundle.

A very pretty colour combination!
Such a lovely soft colour palette on your very pretty cards, Catherine. I love those gorgeous bows with the gem centres and how you’ve shown versatility by using both sides of the acetate.
So soft and feminine, love them both, but wow, that Painted Texture TIEF is amazing!!!
Just beautiful Cathy
Beautiful cards Cathy. I love your layouts, the 3D embossing and your colour combination. Your creations are stunning. xxx
Your cards are stunning Cathy, I love both of them but I really love the painted texture in Basic White on your first card. It just jumps off the page at you. I love the layouts of both cards too! Gorgeous!
Such a beautiful colour combination Cathy. Your cards are so pretty. I want to know your secret with getting such an amazing deep emboss with the new embossing folders. I haven’t had any luck since we changed to the deeper image ones. I hate wasting good cardstock making heaps of shims . . .
Stunning projects Cathy, I love your colour combo it’s so beautiful and the embossed panels give your cards the wow factor!
Absolutely beautiful use of the gorgeous products in this suite, Cathy. I love the texture you’ve added, and your use of the acetate. You have made Petal Pink look beautiful; well done!
