Contributors to this blog hop are all members of Claire Daly's Art With Heart group. We love chatting, crafting and getting together in person, which we did recently for Onstage - our annual Stampin' Up! conference. This is week 47 of our blog hop and the featured colour is Soft Sea Foam.
Soft Sea Foam sits in the Subtles family and so does the returning-as-an-InColor, Pretty in Pink, a happy companion. My ink pads have been delayed somewhere but I did receive new Stampin' Blends and so I was able to colour with those.
Before die cutting using Sentimental Park dies, a piece of adhesive sheet was added to the back of the card stock. That makes it so much easier to add them to the card front without mess.
The flowers were stamped in Smoky Slate to keep them soft before adding the colour.
After adding pearls to the flower centres, I decided a few other larger ones seemed appropriate.
Heartfelt Hexagon stamps and punch are big favourites of mine, and it looks like they may be still available at the end of the catalogue, even if only in the Online Exclusives.
Happy crafting,
Lovely card Rachel, I really like how you used the SSF leaf stems and the coloured flower tops.
ReplyDeleteSuch a subtle and soft combination on your card, Rachel. I especially love the way your added subtle dimension with the Sentimental Park dies in Soft Sea Foam.
ReplyDeleteYour card is so pretty! The pink flowers look wonderful against the SSF leaves and background.
ReplyDeleteYour card is delightful, Rachel! I love the tone-on-tone die-cut flower stems, and the flowers stamped in Smoky Slate to keep the outlines subtle. Pretty in Pink looks gorgeous with Soft Sea Foam. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteA soft and pretty card Rachel. I love your layering of the Sentimental Park leaves tone-on-tone giving subtle texture. Your Pretty in Pink flowers with the Smoky Slate outline are beautiful and work so well with the Heartfelt Hexagon punched sentiment. xxx
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and feminine, Rachel. I love the die cut stems in the SSF card and then the beautiful pop of colour of the flowers, gorgeous!
