Stampin’ Up! Soft Sea Foam – AWH Colour Creations Showcase Week 49

Welcome everyone to this week's Colour Creations Showcase and ink colour Soft Sea Foam, a pale green and another colour from the Subtles family - same as last weeks So Saffron. When I see Soft Sea Foam I often think of natural and organic colours and textures and so have used this as an inspiration for my card this week.

The vase is punched out using the Jar punch in Soft Sea Foam card stock and then run through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine using one of the Greenery embossing folders (this comes in a set of two smaller sized folders). This gives a slightly raised pattern on the vase. I have added some of the gorgeously new Soft Succulent open weave ribbon at the rim of the 'vase'.

The various greenery and flowers were cut from dies in the Pierced Blooms and Poinsettia sets using Basic White, Crumb Cake, Fresh Freesia, Soft Sea Foam and Soft Succulent card stock colours and Assorted DSP. 

Lastly, the sentiment has been stamped and die cut using the Art Gallery bundle. I have used Soft Succulent ink colour here as I did not have Soft Sea Foam ink to play around with this week. At the bottom I have stamped some inky spots in Crumb Cake using a stamp from the Forever Fern set.

Stampin’ Up! So Saffron – AWH Colour Creations Showcase Week 48

Hello everyone! I hope that some of you got to enjoy Mother's Day with your loved ones last weekend. I did get a lovely homemade breakfast of poached egg on toast with spinach, herbs and mini Roma tomatoes (my fave) but spent the day quietly recovering from a head cold. 

Feeling much better now and would love to welcome you to another week of the Colour Creations Showcase where this week we look at So Saffron. This is a soft yellow from the Subtles colour family.

The card created this week is fairly quick and simple where I have used layers of different DSP in So Saffron, Basic Black and Basic White. Three layers in different widths adhered to the card stock base. The DSP include Subtles 2021-22 Assortment and True Love. When I saw the True Love DSP with the daisy print it inspired me to add the daisies made from Pierced Blooms dies. Each daisy is comprised of two petal shapes and the flower centre all adhered with glue dots.

Last week I had received some of my Stampin' Up! order with items from the new annual catalogue and so wanted to work with the Simply Elegant Suite. The greeting is from the Elegantly Said stamp set in this suite and has been stamped in VersaMark on Basic Black and then heat embossed with White embossing powder. The greeting was then punched out with the Elegant Tag punch and adhered with dimensionals to the DSP layer. I can't wait to play with the rest of the suite especially with the gorgeous and very elegant DSP!

 

Just wanted to show the inside of the card where I have added thin layers of the same DSP but this time I have coloured some of the daisies with the So Saffron Stampin' Blends.
