Colour Combo November Blog Hop

It's time for the November Colour Combo Blog Hop and this month we have been challenged to use Crumb Cake, Basic Gray and Soft Suede to create our project. You may have just visited Anastasia's blog or perhaps you are getting started here with me. I hope that you will enjoy the projects we have to share with you today.

For my card today, I decided to use the Winter Woods stamp set from the 2018 Holiday Catalog. This is a beautiful stamp set with detailed images and I thought it would be fun to show how you can create a masculine birthday card with this stamp set.

The color combination this month seemed perfect for a masculine card. I used Basic Gray cardstock to create the card base and added a layer of Crumb Cake that I embossed using the Corrugated Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I just love the texture this added to the card design and I lightly sponged the edges and raised sections of the cardstock with Crumb Cake Classic ink using a Sponge Dauber.

For the focal design, I stamped the detailed trees image with Versamark ink onto Soft Suede cardstock and heat embossed it with Silver embossing powder. I then sponged the edges of the cardstock with Crumb Cake Classic ink and burnished the trees to make them pop. I sponged Soft Suede Classic ink along the bottom of the cardstock to create the ground.

I wrapped a piece of Braided Linen Trim around the Soft Suede cardstock and attached the sentiment which I stamped onto a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock with Soft Suede Classic ink and punched out with the Classic Label punch. I layered it onto a piece of Basic Gray cardstock that had been die cut using the smallest oval die from the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies. The sentiment has been attached using Stampin' Dimensionals.

This was a fun card to create and I loved working with this color combination to create this masculine card and the way the Silver embossing popped against these neutral colors. The detailed tree images really look great when they are heat embossed.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to look at holiday stamp sets in a different way and explore the different possibilities they offer for your projects.

Ink & Share Blog Hop 2018 Holiday Catalog Preview

It's time for the August Ink & Share Blog Hop and this month we are sharing a preview of the new products from the 2018 Holiday Catalog, which will launch September 5th. This blog hop features projects from Stampin' Up! demonstrators all over the world and we hope that our ideas will help inspire you with your own creative projects. You may have just visited Karen's blog or perhaps you are beginning your journey here with me. I hope that enjoy this month's projects.

With Fall just weeks away, I thought I would share a card created with the new Country Home stamp set, which is just one of the wonderful new products in the Country Lane Suite. I just love the vintage feel of this stamp set and the images are perfect for coloring with Stampin' Blends Markers.

For this card design, I chose Mint Macaron cardstock for the card base and added a layer of Blackberry Bliss cardstock that I embossed using the Tin Tile Dynamic Impressions Embossing Folder. To create a vintage, distressed feeling to the card, I added Copper Shimmer Paint to the raised areas of the Blackberry Bliss cardstock with a sponge dauber to bring out the embossed detail.

Using a strip of Mint Macaron cardstock, I embossed it with the Corrugated Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and added the Copper Shimmer Paint to the raised edges for a distressed look. For added texture, I added 2 pieces of 3/16" Braided Linen Trim and attached it to the card front.

The focal image has been created from a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock die cut with the Stitched Seasons Framelits. I stamped the floral image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored the image with Stampin' Blend Markers.

The milk can was stamped onto a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with the Stampin' Blend Markers and then fussy cut with Paper Snips. Using Very Vanilla Solid Bakers Twine, I wrapped the twine around the top of the milk can twice and tied a basic knot. I then attached the milk can to the die cut, lining it up with the floral image, using Stampin' Dimensionals.

I had so much fun creating this card design with the products from the new 2018 Holiday Catalog. The Country Lane Suite has a wonderful array of products to create beautiful Fall themed projects and I can't wait to explore new possibilities with them.
