Each week some of the Art With Heart team are joining the Colour Creations Blog Hop to bring you creative inspiration showcasing our range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.
Week 18 – Early Espresso
Today is the final day of Sale•a•bration for 2022.
The largest die from the Aspen Trees dies is used to cut the Early Espresso card front. Behind this, I glued a piece of the 2022-2024 In Color Glimmer Paper. I stamped the dots/speckles in the same colour ink around the edges of the card front.
The sentiment from the Charming Sentiments Bundle is stamped in Versamark ink, White Emboss Powder added and heat set, before using the coordinating die to cut it out. This was added with Black Mini Dimensionals. I die cut two leaves in the Distressed Gold Specialty Paper, and one in Early Espresso card and these are adhered with glue. A small piece of Linen Thread is added behind the sentiment. To finish off I added some Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots.
On the inside, I placed a Basic White card insert and repeated the dots/speckles around the edge, but I stamped off before onto the white card, so it toned it down. I placed two more of the leaves to the bottom corner.
Thanks for dropping by. I hope you can join me next week for inspiration using Evening Evergreen.

Lovely, just lovely Kate. It has excited me, because the Aspen die arrived at my house today, and I may have to CASE this glimmer paper background.

Really lovely card Kate! Love the glimmer paper behind the die. Not sure I would have chosen that for masculine, but it looks lovely! Your sprig of leaves is the perfect embellishment! Very nice!

Oh wow Kate that Glimmer paper looks fabulous behind the tree silhouette. Using the dots to break up the Early Espresso works great.

Wow, what a stunner! I love the effect of the glimmer paper behind the tree die cut. Is it ombre, or just the way it’s photographed?

Yes, it’s the In Color glimmer that is ombré – it’s so beautiful, you’ll need to get some 😉

A beautiful beautiful card Kate. I love your choice of the Aspen Tree die cut with the Shimmer paper behind. The addition of the Distressed Gold leaves is delightful. Your card both inside and out is gorgeous. Xxx

This is SO pretty, Kate! Brown and blue go so well together, and I love your choice of glimmer paper as the complement to Early Espresso. I also really like the Distressed Gold leaves – great embellishment!
