Contributors to this blog hop are all members of Claire Daly's Art With Heart group. Every Wednesday night at 8p.m AEST we feature a fabulous Stampin' Up! colour, in alphabetical order.
Week 16 brings Calypso Coral to the forefront and I have paired it with Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam and Old Olive.
Recently I presented a class using only Online Exclusives and Irresistible Blooms was one set used. For this reason alone, I have used it again to show off Calypso Coral, these flowers are really bold & beautiful.
You may be wondering about the die cut piece behind the flowers. The inside part of it comes from Irresistible Blooms dies, it usually cuts out an opening in the card. I found that the large circles from Spotlight on Nature dies can cut it out, making it doubly useful!

Happy crafting,
Rachel, your colour combination of Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam and Old Olive is so soft and feminine! I love your clever hack using the Spotlight on Nature dies to cut out the inside part of the Irresistible Blooms die. What a beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE this card, Rachel. This is a neglected bundle in my collection, but you have inspired me to dig it out. What a happy discovery, with the Spotlight on Nature Dies ... that circular frame is really beautiful.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card Rachel, all of the circles are a great background for your beautiful flowers.
ReplyDeleteGreat choice of stamp set to feature Calypso Coral Rachel and a fabulous colour combo. Likewise it has inspired me to ink this stamp set up again.
