Hello and welcome everyone.
It's Week 4 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop from the Art with Heart team.
Our featured colour tonight is Bermuda Bay from the Bright's Collection of Stampin' Up! colours.
This week I've continued to play with the Color & Contour Bundle.
I'm currently waiting on an order to arrive which includes two packs of the Thick Basic White card stock, hence the Bermuda Bay card base for this card. Those who know me, know that my card bases are almost always white!
On last weeks Colour Creations card (see here) I used the stem and flower image, this week I wanted to use the single flower. I'm thinking it's either a daisy or a gerbera, so let's go with a gerbera this time. I've used two other colours from the Bright's family - Gorgeous Grape and Melon Mambo to colour the petals. The outline is Memento tuxedo black. In the photo above you should be able to see the lovely shimmer on the flowers which comes courtesy of the Wink of Stella glitter brush pen.
On the embossed Basic White panel I added a water colour wash of Bermuda Bay before attaching the flowers. I've matted the panel with a piece of Coastal Cabana card stock and popped this up with dimensionals.
The white heat embossed 'get well' sentiment is from the Timeless Tulips stamp set and fits perfectly inside the smallest of the Scalloped Contour Dies. I added dimensionals along the top and bottom of it to sit neatly over the Pool Party sheer ribbon. Each flower centre has a medium sized clear rhinestone, I also added two smaller ones to the white space.
I've kept the inside plain with just the matted writing panel.
I'll have a full list of all the products I've used on my card at the end of the blog post.
But for now, that's it from me tonight everyone. Thanks for stopping by.
