Countryside Corners Trifold card

Today I have a Trifold design using some new product, the Countryside Corners dies to create the card base.

The Framed Florets dies were used for the oval frame and the coordinating Framed Florets stamp set to decorate the front panel, both of these are retiring soon.

On the back panel, I added some Basic White card and stamped the sentiment/balloon and used a sponge dauber to apply ink around the edges.

To colour the images on the front, I don’t have the Blends Markers in the new colours yet, so I added some Isocol (alcohol) to an old Water Painter and used it with some ink from the lids of the inkpads.  The image outlines were stamped in Soft Succulent ink.

Handy Tip for Isocol colouring

It gives a beautiful soft effect to the images. I cut some ribbons in half lengthwise and added them behind the flowers. The sentiment is stamped with Soft Succulent ink onto the same coloured card.

Let’s open this card to see what is inside. The Dry Brushed Metallic Specialty DSP was used with one of the smaller dies and it is so pretty! The Dainty Delight dies were used to cut the flowers and leaves for this panel using Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly and the soft succulent piece from the Fine Shimmer paper pack. The Basic White background is cut using the Something Fancy dies.

Now we open up the third panel and wow, how beautiful is this?!!! The sentiment on the centre panel is from the Framed Florets stamp set. The patterned paper behind the centre panel is from Enjoy the Journey DSP.

Creative Showcase Sketch

AWHT Creative Showcase

Welcome to the May Art With Heart Creative Showcase. This month the Art With Heart Team have amazing projects to share with you that have been inspired by the card sketch below. The sketch is to be used as a starting point and has been interpreted in many creative ways by the Art With Heart Team.

AWHT Colour Creations Showcase May 2020 Sketch

Now let’s get started!

Today’s card uses the Ornate Garden Suite and the Peaceful Poppies Suite of
Products, all which will still be available in the new Annual catalogue starting 3 June!

Olive Balmy Navy White Flirty

The front of the Balmy Blue card base is embossed with the Subtle 3D embossing folder, before a layer of Old Olive card, die cut with the Ornate Layers dies. A Piece of DSP is added, long with other elements you can see.

This centre feature is the ornate style stamp set image stamped onto some Sparkle Glimmer Paper and die cut in a circle. I’ve coloured the image, gently in a dabbing motion so as not to ruin them, with Stampin’ Blends Markers. How pretty does it look?!!

On the inside I have the same image stamped on Whisper White card stock, coloured the same way and fussy cut. This is glued to the Champagne Foil Sheet, die cut with the gorgeous Ornate Layers dies. The Navy card is embossed with the new Ornate Floral 3D embossing folder.

But then you open it again to reveal the inside of the card!

How did I do that? The card consists of 2 standard card bases, but the Navy one is flipped over and opens in the opposite direction and is glued behind the Balmy Blue card base!

Thank You Petal Promenade

Tonight’s card is using some soon to retire products from the Annual catalogue. This stunning Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper is glorious and makes me smile with all all those gorgeous blooms. I can almost smell them!

The colours are also soon to retire, so if you love them too, you need to get them before they are gone. Tranquil Tide, Fresh Fig and Powder Pink are three of the In Colours of 2017-2019. I just love the 3 of them together.

This Dotted Tulle ribbon will also retire and it has been super popular with its softness and dotted pattern. The sentiment is stamped on white card and the 2″ circle punch to cut it out. Then I layered it onto a Fresh Fig Starburst punched piece.
