Hi and welcome back, joining myself and fellow Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators, sharing our creativity globally through our Kre8tors Blog Hop group. You join me here in Norfolk, UK and looking forward to sharing my Colour Challenge project with you today.
For todays Challenge we are all being inspired by this Spring Colour graphic. Such gorgeous colours make it a pleasure to work with.
I started with a Pear Pizzazz base card and Mango Medley layer embossed using Pinewood Planks Textured Embossing Folder.
Next I created a middle panel of Gray Granite card and added a Whisper White layer that had been embossed using Subtles Textured Embossing Folder.
The flower and humming bird images from Humming Along, were stamped onto Vellum cardstock using Versamark ink and Black Embossing Powder. After melting with a Heat Tool, both images were die-cut using the corresponding Framelits Dies. These images were then coloured from the reverse using Mango Medley, Highland Heather and Granny Apple Green Blends.
A piece of gorgeous 1/2″ Granny Apple Green Textured Weave Ribbon was wrapped round the centre panel and tied with a knot.
My Sentiment was taken rom Itty Bitty Greetings and again heat embossed using Black Embossing Powder.
I hope you enjoyed todays Stained Glass effectfor my Colour Challenge. I love working with vellum and the effect this can create.
Before you ‘hop’ along to to Jan’s Blog to see her lovely projects, I would love if you can leave me a quick comment.
Thanks again for stopping by and hope to see you back here soon.
