Lots of Lavender - Color Throw Down 475

January 11, 2018

It seems I've been a little MIA on blog posting lately. I have been making tons of samples but not many have been posted online ... yet. Feeling the need to craft and inspired by my friend Jenny, I thought I'd participate in this weeks Color Throw Down challenge. It's been forever since I've played along with this crew but it sure it fun to try out a different color combination. I don't usually use much purple in my projects.  Purple is the perfect color choice to use with this flower bouquet image.

The stamp set I used is called Lots of Lavender and it's part of the current Stampin' Up! Sale-a-bration promotion. You can earn it free with any 50$ purchase.

Another fun new product shown on this card are the Glitter and Clear epoxy shapes. These appear like tiny dew drops and are a simple and subtle embellishment.

I matched these challenge colors up to Stampin' Up! colors =  Fresh Fig, Pool Party and Sweet Sugarplum.

A full list of supplies can be found below.

A white wedding card with a little black tie! This card is so much prettier in person. I had such a difficult time trying to photograph the white irridescent foil on the Basic White Cardstock. I used layers of white ribbons, vellum, cardstock, and foil to create this look. Card created for @stampinfancyfriday B&W challenge.

I’m not a blending brush expert. Ink blending takes patience, and time but when you stamp on top of it, you can hardly see the mistakes… ha! Spooky trick. I used a circle punch and post it note to create a simple mask and set to blending a moody night sky. Cards created using the ‘Oh My Fright’ stamp set for #gdp568 #ohmyfright #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmakingreels
Teal or purple?! Both are great for a spooky background. 

Colors used: 
Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock 
Fresh Freesia and Berry Burst

I can't decide if I have a favorite?  The greeting and bat images are from the 'Oh My Frights' Halloween stamp set

I used hot foil to create this card and a second card with the leftover negative foil from the hot foil die. Two for one! There’s something just so satisfying about peeling the foil away from the card stock. Foil is Light Pink. Foil die is called: GARDEN SILHOUETTE HOT FOIL DIE #stampinup #cardmaker #hotfoil #gardensilhouettehotfoildies
