I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Wednesday evening for the AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop showcasing the full range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.
Week 25 – Fresh Freesia
Today we mark the halfway point through our colours at Week 25!!! Which has been your favourite so far?!!
I am featuring the Country Flowers Bundle with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper (DSP) in this fun fold design. I have used Fresh Freesia, Misty Moonlight and Summer Splash as my main colour palette.

Each of these pots are die cut in white card, but before removing the card, turn them over and run your stylus tip on the Take Your Pick Tool around the inside edge of the die for more definition. Then turn it over and use a Blending Brush to lightly add some ink to create that crisp white border. The flowers and leaves are stamped in Versamark ink, White WOW Emboss Powder added and melted with a Heat Tool. Colour the images using ink and a Water Painter. Around the edges, I added a light wash of Misty Moonlight to soften the harshness of the white edges.
Don’t you think that wood panelling of the Country Woods Designer Series Paper looks great in the background?!! The Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder was used on the Fresh Freesia panels.

If that is not enough room to write your message, add a White panel to the back of the card!
Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for inspiration using Garden Green.
Please enjoy the wonderful inspiration of our next team member, Amie McIlroy.

A wonderful card Kate. Love your fun fold and use of the Country Flowers bundle with the Country Woods DSP. Must try the added embossing by drawing around the inside of the open die – its a lovely effect. So gorgeous. xxx

What a fabulous fancy fold, Kate. Your Fresh Freesia Embossed panels look amazing, as does the woodgrain DSP with the Fresh Freesia.

I love the Fresh Freesia card. Do you have the measurements for the paper posted anywhere?

Not at this stage, as I was creating it to suit metric measurements and still need a little bit of refining. If you google search Accordian Double Gatefold card you will find other tutorials though!
