Tonight's Colour Creations blog hop is all about Tahitian Tide, the last in our series of new In Colors that we're showing off before launching into our alphabetical-order showcase of Stampin' Up!'s core colour range. Tahitian Tide is a really uplifting, bright, turquoise.
I made two cards for this week's colour challenge, and it was a bit tough to decide which one would be blogged tonight! I have opted for a pretty simple design, in Tahitian Tide and Basic White, with touches of silver. The star of my card is the gorgeous new Pretty Medallion background stamp, which I have white heat-embossed on Tahitian Tide card.
After embossing the beautiful intricate stamped design, I added some stitched frame detail with a Stitched With Whimsy die.
The sentiment, from Sending Smiles, was heat-embossed in silver on a piece of Basic White card, and cut out using one of the Sending Dies. The main panel has been matted on a Basic White panel, and a thin silver panel.

ooh, that stamp is so pretty, and looks amazing in white on Tahitian Tide. I love the subtle framing with the Whimsy die, too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Christine, I love the added layer with the Whimsical Dies
ReplyDeleteSo simple but so elegant - simply stunning Christine!
ReplyDeleteReally pretty card Christine and that stamp looks so amazing in white against the Tahitian Tide! Oh yes and no DSP or Male card this week! LOL!
ReplyDeleteThat medallion is beautiful embossed in white, Christine. A real wow and very elegant card. Love Tahitian Tide with White!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Christine, I had to check out the stamp as I must have missed it in the catalogue.
ReplyDeleteAlthough you say your card is a simple design, it's just those little things that take it to the next level, like the very fine silver border and the Stitiched with Whimsy embossing. Just elegant.
ReplyDeleteThe white embossed medallion is beautiful Christine and love the touches of the whimsy border die and rhinestones for that sparkle.
