Abundant Beauty in Calypso Coral

2023-2024 AWH Colour Creations header

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.

Week 16 – Calypso Coral

Today’s card uses the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks that will be available in the upcoming Mini catalogue (6 Sept – 3 Jan).  I love that there are 7 masks in the pack and they are only $18.50. Four of them make up the sunflowers, the other three are snowflakes, autumn leaves and houndstooth patterns.

They are so easy to line up when using the notch on top left of each mask and they are numbered!

I started by placing a piece of Basic White card on my Silicone Mat Sheet and using the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks for the sunflowers first. I used Flirty Flamingo with Calypso Coral and then moved to the leaves using Boho Blue and Misty Moonlight. These were also used in the centres of the flowers. Once I was happy with the colours, I ran it through my Embossing Machine in the Distressed Tile 3D Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.

I roughed up the edges with the blade of my Paper Snips. I wrapped some Linen Thread around the lower section 3 times and tied in a bow. I adhered this to a narrow matt of Misty Moonlight card, then onto my Calypso Coral card base.

The sentiment from the Level Complete stamp set was heat embossed in White Emboss Powder and cut using a small die from the Something Fancy dies. This was popped up on Dimensionals. Some Iridescent Pastel Gems were added last.

On the inside, I used a Sponge Dauber with Calypso Coral ink around the edges. I did some more blending with the masks in the corners. The sentiment from Phrases for All, was inked using sponge daubers to apply the ink to the stamp, then onto the card.
