Mossy Meadow: Sneak Peek – ‘Simply Beautiful’ card

17 December, 202516 December, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 33 – Mossy Meadow

This handmade card features a sneak peek of some new products arriving in January, the Simply Beautiful dies and the Beautifully Adorned Ephemera Pack.

The Mossy Meadow background layer is dry embossed with the Gathering Leaves 3D Embossing Folder. Before adhering it to a Thick White card base, I wrapped some new White with Gold Ribbon around it.

The leaves are die cut from Granny Apple Green & Mossy Meadow cardstock and the flowers in Pretty in Pink & Petunia Pop cardstock and the stamen in Gold Foil. Each of these layers has some ink blending using Blending Brushes and the coordinating ink colours, then each layer glued together.

The leaves I spritzed with some water then dabbed with a tissue to get that water effect.

The flowers were adhered to the card first, then the leaves popped underneath. I added a big splatter of Wink of Stella across the entire card and put it aside to dry.

The vellum tag is from the Ephemera pack and is stamped in Versamark ink, Gold WOW Emboss Powder added then melted with my Heat Tool. I added some Tear & Tape just under the top of the tag (behind the gold) so you don’t see the glue. Finally some Pearilsed Faceted Circles were dotted around.

Are you excited for some new products in January 2026?!!!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next year on 7 January for Night of Navy inspiration.

Mossy Meadow: Storybook Friends with Pick a Season

22 January, 202521 January, 2025 craftwithkate

It’s with a sad heart that I inform you, effective immediately, we are no longer continuing with our Art with Heart Colour Creations blog hop for the time being. However, I will still continue to share my projects with you each week, as it is such a great way of getting out of my comfort zone and experimenting with all the colours in the Stampin’ Up! collections, especially those we struggle to use.

So, in saying that, here I am with our next colour, Mossy Meadow!

Week 37 – Mossy Meadow

Today the Storybook Moments Designer Series Paper features with the Everyday Arches dies. You may be wondering where the arches are, but they have been turned into an oval! To do this, run the die through your die cutting machine from the arched end first, but stop when you get 2/3rds of the way along the die and rewind. Remove the die and turn it 180º and line up with the little dots so the die will then cut the other end through your machine, but remember to stop and rewind so it doesn’t cut all the way through. Repeat this with the die one size larger with Mossy Meadow card to create the matt layer.

Stamp the mound image (Storybook Friends stamp set) and colour with your Water Painter and inkpads (Mossy Meadow & Calypso Coral) . Stamp your sentiment and add two of the pre-printed diecut images from the paper pack!

On the inside I used the negative space from the oval die cut to add some ink blending for the panel to write my sentiment. Some more stamping and a a strip of the patterned paper as used on the front of the card!

Storybook Friends stamp set added a cute extra touch to go with the Pick a Season stamp set (free with a $100+ order during Saleabration). I stamped the small house image in the background of my card base, layered a strip of patterned paper across the centre. The oval is created the same way as explained above with the Everyday Arches dies before stamping the tree & grass (Pecan Pie, Mossy Meadow & Calypso Coral). The fence and bunny are stamped in Pecan Pie, the bunny coloured with Blends Combo Markers (Light SU900, Medium SU500 & SU600).

Some Gold Twisted Thread is wrapped around and tied in a knot. This panel is added on Dimensionals and a White WOW heat embossed sentiment (Simply Said), die cut (Happy Little Things dies) and glued on. Three Gold Low Profile Dots are added below.

These two layers are glued together, run them through the Cut & Emboss Machine with the Timeworn 3D Textured embossing Folder, before gluing to the Mossy Meadow card base. The sentiment from the Charming Sentiments stamp set is stamped in Versamark ink, Silver Emboss Powder added before being Heat set and cut out with the coordinating dies.

Mossy Meadow Blog Hop: Daffodil Daydream

5 January, 20225 January, 2022 craftwithkate

Each week some of the Art With Heart team are joining the Colour Creations Blog Hop to bring you creative inspiration to showcase our range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.

Week 30 – Mossy Meadow

Tonight as we enter the new 2022 year, we are returning to continue our Stampin’ Up! colours with Mossy Meadow. As the new January – June Mini Catalogue and Sale-a-bration began yesterday, this Daffodil Daydream Bundle is one that will surely be popular!

Daffodil Daydream card by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2022

My card base is Basic White with a layer of the Abstract Beauty 4″ x 6″ DSP, then a layer of the Vellum Layering Designs that come in 12″ x 12″ sheets. The daffodil image is placed in the Stamparatus and I used my Stampin’ Write Markers (Daffodil Delight & Mossy Meadow) direct to the red rubber image. You can repeat this process to get the desired colour and if you have missed any section of the image. To colour the centre of the image, I used the Wink of Stella with Mossy Meadow ink for the leaves and Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie Blends Combo packs for the flowers.

The image is die cut using the coordinating dies and popped up on Dimensionals. I die cut a smal butterfly in Mossy Meadow card and lifted the wings with my fingers so it looks as though it is fluttering. A Gold Shimmer Ribbon bow is added with Tombo Multipurpose glue.

On the inside, I simply added the small offcut of DSP from the front layer. I just love how this Abstract Beauty 4″ x 6″ DSP is almost the perfect size for our card layers!

Colour Creations Showcase – Mossy Meadow – Basket of Blooms

16 December, 202016 December, 2020 craftwithkate

AWHT Colour Creations Showcase

Each week some of the Art With Heart team are joining the Colour Creations Showcase to bring you creative inspiration to showcase our range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.

Week 29 – Mossy Meadow

This is our last colour for 2020, but we will continue mid-January 2021 with the remainder of the SU colours, after a much deserved break!

I really struggled coming up with something using Mossy Meadow – I think it is the darkness of it that throws me, but that is the challenge with this showcase. We all have our preferred colours and some we don’t warm to as much, and this is one of mine 😁

When I can’t figure out what to do, I head to the Stampin’ Up! colour coach for ideas and I selected the middle combination: Mossy Meadow – Flirty Flamingo – Coastal Cabana

I haven’t created too much with the Basket of Blooms stamp set so I thought that might be a good place to start, seeing as there is foliage for Mossy Meadow! I started by stamping the foliage once, then again without reinking, and instead of using markers to colour it, I used the Blending Brushes to add a softer layer of this dark colour. The Rectangle Stitched dies were used to cut it out. Using the Decorative Mask, I sponged the background and the edges.

Of course the blooms had to be Flirty Flamingo for that lovely pop of colour and I used the coordinating punch to cut them out. They also have Wink of Stella on them and some faceted gems in the centres.

The pot is stamped in Coastal Cabana on white card and coloured with blending brushes
(coming soon) before being fussy cut. I also sponged the ink behind where the pot would sit for some shading. I splattered Wink of Stella across the Masked Mossy Meadow layer before adding the centre panel. It really gives the card that extra sparkle!
