Hello and welcome to my blog. Can you believe it’s only 40 days until Christmas? Even with such a difficult year, where has the time gone? We have five more CASEing the Catty challenges before we take a break over Christmas. We’d love to see your creations.
This week we are CASEing the Colours of the Cards on Page 18 of the Annual Catalogue. The colours are Mint Macaron, Soft Sea Foam, Gray Granite, Blushing Bride, Petal Pink and Whisper White. You may have hopped over from Siobhan’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of each post.
I’m using Gray Granite, Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam and Whisper White. I hadn’t used my Blends for a while so I decided to colour a piece of Peony Garden DSP with a couple of the challenge colours.
My Card base is Gray Granite with a layer of Petal Pink. The DSP has been coloured with Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Blends. I’ve left the leaves white and added some Wink Of Stella to the flower stamens.
I wanted the coloured DSP to be the hero of my card so I didn’t add many embellishments. Some co-ordinating Gray Granite Shimmer ribbon down one side and a Champagne Foil Ornate Frames Die cut and sentiment.
I’d been looking after Mike for a week, my friends dog, so Marvi was not a happy kitty having a dog in the house. He’s looking a bit grumpy today even though Mike went home on Thursday.
It’s time to hop over and see Shannon’s wonderful creation. Just click on the next button below.
Looks like Marvi hasn’t forgiven you yet!! I love the soft colouring on the dsp, so pretty!!
Brilliant colouring! And the paper really is the star of the show on your card. Isn’t that gray shimmer ribbon sublime!!
Absolutely stunning, Peta. I love how your coloured DSP looks. And I love Marvi’s attitude in that photo. Probably going to take him a while to forgive you for that dog business 😛
Marci doesn’t look happy at all. Beautiful colouring of the DSP. I love how this is showcased so well with the small sentiment, ribbon and mats of colour.
