Ink and Inspiration Blog Hop February 2022 – Boughs & Blossoms

27 January 2022
10 Comments

27 Jan

Hello, lovely ladies,

Welcome to my blog! My Today’s card is for Ink and Inspiration Blog Hop. 

Blog Hop Theme: – Colour Challenge 

Stampset: Boughs & Blossoms 

All the Stampin’ Up! products I used here are available at my Online Shop. Check out the image at the end of the blog post. It will take you to my Online Shop.

Here are the colours used for Today’s challenge. 
Merry Merlot as Base card – 10.5 cm x 29.7 cm scored @14.9cm 
Layer 1: Fresh Freesia-10 cm x 14.4 cm 
Layer 2: Basic White  9.8cm x 14.2 cm 

I used stencils to blend the colours on the background. Used Merry Merlot in very light shade, Magenta Madness as a next layer, little hard in shading, Highland Heather light shade and finally very light shade of Fresh Freesia.

Then I sprinkled some water into the background to get the light touch. 

I used a layering stencil to colour the flower using the same colours, stamped the leaf in Evening Evergreen, and then fussy cut the flower. 

Adhere the Layers of circles using Highland Heather and Very Vanilla on the background of the stencil flower. 

I stamped the sentiment on Highland Heather cardstock using the Basic White embossing folder. 

Attached is Gold & Rose speciality paper and a little scrap piece of Magenta Madness Cardstock.

Finally, I added the fussy cut stencil flower to the layering circles using stampin’ dimensional. 

. 

I hope you like Today’s card. Check out other blog hop members projects below for more inspiration.

Hello lovely crafty friends, It’s time for anothe Hello lovely crafty friends,

It’s time for another Hop Abroad Insta Hop! 
This month our theme is Fall / Thank You Cards, and for my card I wanted to play with warm colours, lots of layers and a little bit of texture.
I really enjoy making cards like this, where you can keep looking and notice all the little details. I added the embossed background, foliage, ribbon and a few embellishments to give the card some dimension.

For my project, I decided to create an Autumn-insp For my project, I decided to create an Autumn-inspired card with a vintage feel. I wanted the card to have those warm, gentle colours that remind me of Autumn, while keeping the overall design soft and elegant.
I also added some delicate flowers to the design. I love how flowers can bring a little softness to a vintage-style card, and they worked beautifully with the Autumn colours.
I had so much fun putting all the little details together — choosing the colours, layering the elements and adding those finishing touches that make a card feel special.
