AWH Colour Creations - Week 42 - Real Red



Hi everyone.
We're up to Week 42 of the Art with Heart Colour Creations blog hop. Our colour tonight is Real Red. A classic red from our Regals Collection.

Real Red 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper - Regals Collection

For tonight's hop, I'm sharing a thank you card.


I just wanted a really simple design and to let the gorgeous, vibrant red be the star of the show, as it should be. I think I achieved that look.

I've made a tent fold card base of Whisper White and I inked up the Buffalo Check background stamp with Real Red ink and stamped onto some Whisper White cardstock, then die cut a panel of it with a rectangle stitched framelit. I added this to a panel of whisper white and silver foil, and popped this whole piece up with dimensionals. Then I stamped the large daisy from the Daisy Delight stamp set onto real red cardstock twice with real red ink, and punched out with the Daisy Punch. I brushed on some sparkle with the Wink of Stella pen and added a faceted gem to the centre. It's also attached with dimensionals, and the same for the sentiment.


The sentiment is heat embossed in black and die cut with another of the rectangle stitched framelits. Originally I had stamped directly onto the card base but the ink smudged. I like this look better - so a happy mistake really. The sentiment is from Beautiful Bouquet.
In this photo you can see that I embossed horizontal lines on the top and bottom. There's three along the top and four along the bottom. I did this by using the Simply Scored scoring tool before adding all the elements. Three red rhinestones finish of the details and balance the card nicely I think.


Inside the card I added a stitched rectangle of the buffalo check that I had left over and another stitched rectangle in Whisper White for the writing panel.

AWH Colour Creations Blog Hop


Hi friends.
Are we really up to Week 15 of our Art with Heart team's Colour Creations blog hop?!
The answer is yes, we are. I cannot believe how fast the weeks are flying by. I hope you have been able to join us each week as we showcase another one of our Stampin' Up! colours.
Tonight we're sharing our Daffodil Delight projects.

Daffodil Delight 6" x 6" DSP pack from the Brights Collection


I have been wanting to use the Apron of Love stamp set and coordinating dies on a project for ages, but I couldn't quite get an idea happening, that was until this image came to me for this weeks hop.


I decided that I'm going to send this card to a friend to remind her to use her Bonus Days coupon codes this month on her orders. It's a good reminder to all of us to use our coupon codes that we received for our qualifying orders in August. You have from now until September 30th to redeem them, so don't miss out. I'm looking forward to using mine!
Now, back to the card.
To a Whisper White card base I added a piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock that I embossed with the Tin Tile Dynamic TIEF, this folder is already a favourite of mine. I rounded two opposite corners just for a bit of interest. The apron was stamped with the Buffalo Check background stamp, I LOVE gingham, so this won't be the last time you'll see me using it on a project. I decided to use Crumb Cake for the strings on the apron, as well as behind the stitched square and sentiment banner, a couple of the die-cut flowers and stamped flowers and sentiment, which is from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set. I think it goes nicely with the Daffodil Delight.

Here's a couple of close-up pic's of some of the detail. Behind the white bakers twine and linen thread bow is another little Crumb Cake flower. Our basic rhinestones add the perfect little touch of bling!



After confessing last week that I'm not a fan of the colour yellow, I think I may have changed my mind just a little, because I really love this soft and pretty shade of our Daffodil Delight.


I can't wait to see what the other girls have created for tonight's hop.
