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 Crafty Friends, Today's hop is for the Hop Hello Crafty Friends,

Today's hop is for the Hop Abroad August 2026 Insta Hop, and this month's theme is "Least Used Colours."
I chose Flirty Flamingo because it's one of those colours I rarely reach for but I had so much fun creating with it! I paired it with the beautiful July Product of the Month - Begonia Belle stamp set, and I absolutely love how this card turned out.

Check out the amazing projects created by the rest of the design team!

This month's theme is to Creating Backgrounds.
I started with a Balmy Blue card base and created a soft watercolored background. Once the watercolour was completely dry, I stamped the images in Black ink over the top, creating a beautiful contrast that really makes the design stand out.
