Colour Creations - Week #5 - Wild Wheat





It hasn't taken long for me to going from wondering if I'd ever use this colour, to absolutely loving it! In The Moment provided the perfect image to colour using Stampin' Blends in Wild Wheat for the hat and glass of wine.


Maybe the secret is to always place the colours I'm least fond of with Boho Blue, which I adore! Stamping the dress onto DSP allows you to 'dress' the lass in lovely patterns such as this stripe from the Countryside Inn DSP.



The other DSP is from the pack Fresh As A Daisy, which is probably why they co-ordinate so nicely.



Next week we will use Azure Afternoon for our projects. My talented friend Andrea Sargent has a wonderful project to share this week.

  1. Rachel, you had me at hat and wine! But seriously, I love how you've used WW and BB to create this dreamy scene, especially the paper pieced dress!

  2. I love your theory that Boho Blue can make any colour look good, Rachel! That made me laugh. I love Wild Wheat, and am so pleased you've come to like it. Your card is lovely. How good is that DSP for the dress?!

  3. This is brilliant Rachel, I love how you have created the impression of a seaside scene purely with rectangles of colour and the stamped image. So well done!

    Haha Rachel I had to laugh at your comments that any colour looks good with Boho Blue! Your colouring of the image is lovely and the effect of stamping the dress on patterned paper effective.

  7. Okay, this is a real wow card, Rachel. I love your comment of Boho Blue (hehe) but maybe yu are right, aqny colour goes with blue! I love the paper piecing and the chosen layers of patterned papers. I adore it all and I think this may be my favourite tonight.

  11. Oh Rachel your card is gorgeous! Yes I think Boho Blue works well with everything too! Love how you have stamped on to the DSP to dress her but coloured the res in blends and then layered her on gorgeous DSP! I really need to get this stamp set out again you have made some gorgeous cards with it!
