Contributors to this blog hop are all demonstrators in Art With Heart group. We love chatting, crafting and getting together in person.
This week the lovely colour we are sharing is Balmy Blue. I really didn't think I would be able to join in this week, until my grandson's days with Gran & Pop were changed ever-so-slightly and it was possible - YAY! To put the cherry on top, I received a new stamp set & die bundle, Timeless Charm, which you will be able to check out online tomorrow when the NEW Online Exclusives are shared.
The background stamps are a fun way of 'grounding' the elements and there are three sizes of the cloudy stamp. I thought the dashes joined everything together in an interesting way too.
Mixed fonts for the sentiments always add interest too, and this one could easily be separated by masking or just cutting apart the words.
Both cards are decorated inside, the first quite simply with a leaf and this one with a spray of flowers and leaves.

Oh, how lovely! And YAY! for unexpected crafting time! You've used the combination of stamps so beautifully - the cloudy stamps and dashes are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteOh no, Rachel, your cards are so beautiful I need to order this new bundle right now! I love the layout, the design and everything about both of these cards!
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards, Rachel. I like how you used the leaf images over the bubble backgeround stamps, and yes, those dotted lines really do link them together. Love your stepped up version too!
ReplyDeleteYou have come up with two BEAUTIFUL cards, Rachel, using a set I didn't think I needed. I love how you've used the stamps, and this colour combo. Lovely work!
ReplyDeleteThese cards are so adorable, Rachel! I love the background stamping and the placement of the images. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, 2 gorgeous cards Rachel. I so love your simple stamping on white mounted on Balmy Blue with such a lovely colour combo. Your second stepped up card is delightful as well. And I had told myself I didn’t need another floral set. Sigh … x
ReplyDeleteLovely cards Rachel, the green really pops against Balmy Blue. The dots really do add interest.
ReplyDeleteRachel I really love your stepped up version of the 2 cards and the colour choice is perfect. That green frames the stamped images perfectly.
ReplyDeleteThe granny apple green really pops with the balmy blue and is a perfect colour combination to pair together along with the navy.
