Welcome back to another Art With Heart Team Colour Creations weekly Blog Hop. Today we are featuring our 50th and final Stampin’ Up! colour; Tranquil Tide. I have to say I have thoroughly enjoyed being part of this blog hop each week and thank Catherine for coordinating it all year long! xx
This card uses the Cling Wrap technique and the Rooted in Nature Suite of products.
The cling wrap technique is using some cling wrap or even an old plastic bag from the supermarket, scrunch it up and drab it into an inkpad and then dab onto the cardstock. Repeat this process with a couple of other colours. I have used Balmy Blue, Coastal Cabana & Soft Sea Foam onto a small piece of Soft Sea Foam cardstock. Once I had the coverage I wanted, I stamped the image & sentiment in Black ink.
Then I placed the card into my Stampin’ Trimmer and cut it on the diagonal. No special measurement, just sliced it twice. I glued it onto some tranquil tide card leaving a small gap between each section, before mounting onto some black cardstock. Doesn’t it give a great effect?!!!
The 1/2″ Woven Ribbon (retired) was the perfect addition for my Tranquil Tide card.
The card base is Basic Black with a layer of Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper.
Once the card was finished, I added some Wink of Stella (my favourite product!) over the tree image and added a couple of rhinestones.
On the inside I had to add a layer of tranquil tide then some whisper white to be able to write on. It looked a little plain, so I added a small strip of the same DSP.

Wow, Kate what a wonderful use of techniques to showcase Tranquil Tide. You’ve inspired me with both the clingwrap technique and the diagonal cutting…such a great effect. Thank you so much for hopping along on the colour Creations blog hop xx
