Hello everyone, welcome to Week 32 of the Colour Creations blog hop from the Art with Heart Team.
Our spotlight colour tonight is Old Olive - a member of the Regals Collection of Stampin' Up! colours.
On my card I've used Old Olive as an accent colour to Soft Sea Foam and Fresh Freesia.
I needed a thank you card for a new customer and I chose to feature the beautiful images from the Flowing Flowers stamp set from the Jan-June Mini Catalogue. These lovely Distinktive designs have lots of detail and shading and I love the variety of sentiments and font.
I used the Stitched Greenery die that adds stitched leaf detail to the Soft Sea Foam layer and then matted it to a piece of Old Olive. On the Basic White layer I used the Stamparatus and sponge daubers to stamp and colour the flower image. I have embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder and die cut with a Stitched So Sweetly die.
Inside the card I added a strip of Old Olive and some of the detail from the Stitched Greenery die on Soft Sea Foam to echo the front of the card. And this time I inked up the smaller flower image.
The sentiment was heat embossed in white onto Old Olive card stock and fussy cut. I tied a loopy bow after wrapping some linen thread around the basic white layer a few times, and I finished off with Fresh Freesia flower flourishes and basic rhinestones.
Below you will find a list of the Stampin' Up! products I used to create my card.
That's it from me tonight everyone, thanks for stopping by.

Gosh, this is beautiful, Caroline! I hadn't even thought to put Soft Sea Foam with Old Olive, but they go so nicely together. Love your choice of dies and embossing folder, and embellishments. Just so pretty.
