GDP #049 colour challenge with a Sneak Peak - Frosted Medallions

Just a brief post today to catch the GDP deadline.This week's colour challenge is a pretty one, and I made  a few cards with this combo. This one is with a new stamp coming Sept 1 in the Holiday Catalogue. It has a beautiful font as well as some lovely images.



The twine is a single thread from the white jute  ribbon which I ran over the Flamingo inked. I love the texture of this thread- it ties so nicely.
It's hard to pick up the wink of Stella on the central medallion, but it does sparkle! The inside says - the best is yet to come! Lovely for a wedding don't you think?

Thanks for looking today,
Liz

      HI Josee, thanks so much for your lovely comments. Of course it will be fine for you to CASE my card. I'd love it if you could send me some photos of what you end up making in your group! You can post them to my Facebook page if that;s easier - Lillybet's papers. Have fun, it really is a gorgeous set- I have made a few other types since this post including my convention swaps for the CASEing the Catty Design team which I am part of. You can check them out too just by searching this blog under "Frosted Medallions". Happy Stamping! Liz

New In colour 2025-2027 cards and the FABULOUS Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape.

Don't you love it when a single product creates enough elements to decorate a bunch of cards at one time? The Extraordinary Flora Washi tape is one of those products. I created these for my upcoming Catalogue Launch. I put the Washi onto Basic Beige to cut these flowers and love how it coordinates with the Basic Beige card base. To create these cards I trimmed 2.5cm from the front edge and adhered a 3.5cm strip of DSP to the inside of the card to give an added layer. These were easy to put together. Darling Duckling Secret Sea Strawberry Slush Timid Tiger Cloud Clover June 3 - 30 Stampin Up has an amazing offer where you can get 50% off any second product from a suite. So for example if you were to purchase the Extraordinary Flora Die you would be able to buy the tape at 50% off. Please reach out if you want more information on this great deal. You can see all the available suites in my online store. I am loving all the new colours.  I hope you have a creative week and remember,...

Colour INKspiration#178 Happy Hibiscus

Happy Hibiscus is a new set in my collection and I needed to get it out and play with it, so this colour combination seemed like a good place to start.  Isn't the Inspiration picture amazing? I wish I was a better gardener and could grow these gorgeous treasures. But since that is not my skill I am happy to admire nature. Picture credit - https://leahhopephotography.client-gallery.com/.../print... I used the watercolour 100 paper and created two pieces of colour, one a range of dark and light Calypso Coral, and one a mix of Soft Sea Foam and Old Olive.  Once dry I was able to cut out the leaves and tiny flowers. I stamped the 3 large flowers over the watercolour and cut them out using the Hybrid Embossing Folder - It's so easy and super effective as it embosses and cuts in one pass creating some amazing depth for the blossoms. I love the leaf shapes and definition in these dies, just gorgeous. Lots of white seemed like a good way to let the colours shine, so a simple embosse...
