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.

Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎 This mo Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎
This month, our theme is Die-Cutting, and I decided to highlight trees in my card design.

For my card base, I used Basic Gray, and I sponged the first layer with Blueberry Bushel to create depth and a lovely background for the colourful trees.
 I watercoloured the cardstock before die cutting. I love how this adds a unique touch and brings variation to each tree in colours.
Make sure you check out all the other Design Team projects below-you’ll get so many lovely ideas!
