Hop Abroad Instagram Hop - August 2025

Hello lovely Crafty friends,

Hello Crafty Friends!

I’m so excited to be part of this month’s Hop Abroad Insta hop! Our theme is one of my absolute favourites – Favourite Colour Palatte. I normally pick bright colours but here I pickled Subtle colour family.
I used the colours Calypso Coral. Lost lagoon, Lemon Lolly and Petal Pink.

Procedure:

Embossed the layer 2 Calypso Coral cardstock ( I used the debossed side and attached it to the layer 1 then adhere that piece to the base card Calypso Coral.
Add the Metallic Rub on the Layer 2 embossed piece. Splatter some Basic Black ink on it.
Stamp the image using the Jetblack Ink on the Fluid Watercolour Paper then watercolour the flower using Petal Pink, Calypso Coral, Lemon Lolly then the leaves using Lost Lagoon.
Die-cut few leaves using Petal Pink and Lost Lagoon.

Die-cut the 2 pieces of the Petal Pink circles to the back of the image and adhere the flowers using Stampin’ Dimensional.
Sponge the Lost lagoon Leaves using Lost Lagoon ink to get some dark shade.
