AWHT COLOUR CREATIONS SHOWCASE - WEEK 34: PETAL PINK

 

It's Wednesday night, which means it's time for some members of the Art With Heart team to share creations in the colour of the week.  This week it's Petal Pink's turn.  Cathy Proctor co-ordinates our weekly Colour Creations Showcase, and she has a comprehensive list on her blog of everyone participating in the share.  We hope you'll enjoy hopping around all our blogs, and leaving some comment love, if you feel so inclined.

Petal Pink is one of my least favourite colours in Stampin' Up!'s range.  I am a pink girl, at heart, but this pink has very yellowy/orange undertones, that I'm not a fan of.  I haven't used any Petal Pink ink on my card, because the ink is even more orange than the paper and card.  However, I have made a card that I am rather pleased with - hope you like it, too!

All of the decorative elements on my card are arranged on a Dandy Laser Cut Paper frame, that is matted onto a panel of Petal Pink Designer Series Paper, and in turn a piece of Petal Pink card that has been embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.

Here is a closer look at the flowers, die cut using the beautiful Poppy Moments dies.  The solid flowers were cut from Petal Pink Designer Series Paper, and the overlaid outlines from Petal Pink and Basic Gray card.  The leaves were cut from Soft Sea Foam Designer Series Paper and card, and lightly sponged around the edges with Soft Sea Foam ink.

I added a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the middle flower.

I stamped the sentiment, from Peaceful Moments, in Versamark ink onto Petal Pink card.  Using white embossing powder, and my heat tool, I heat embossed it; a nice, subtle, look for a sympathy card.  The gorgeous label shape is from the Potted Succulents dies.

Listed below are all the products I used to make my card.  If you live in Australia, and would like to shop with me for your Stampin' Up! supplies, you can get to my online store by clicking on any of the thumbnail images below.
