Colour Creations - Week 15 - Crumb Cake



The participants in Colour Creations are all Stampin' Up! demonstrators and members of Art With Heart. We love to Blog Hop sharing all the Stampin' Up! Colours. This is week 15 of Colour Creations Blog Hop, and we are sharing Crumb Cake.

Crumb Cake is such a popular neutral, I don't know what we would do if it was ever discontinued! 



Although water colouring was being promoted last month, I've continued into August with the very easy colouring on these images. They are stamped in Soft Suede water-based ink, and then ink is spread with a water painter for subtle sepia-like shades.


Fond of Autumn has been a bit of a favourite in my craft room these last few weeks.


For additional interest the three panels behind are textured with different patterns. The metal leaf die on Very Vanilla, the peg-board on Crumb Cake, and the stripes 3D folder, from Stripes & Splatters is Soft Suede. Aren’t they great together?
Deckled Rectangles dies cut out the background in one piece.


These sepia tones are very soothing, don't you think?
