This week's Colour Creations blog hop is focussing on Soft Sea Foam. It's a lovely pale green, that I found a little tricky to showcase without looking insipid. I've chosen to team it with lots of white, and some gold.
To a Thick Basic White card base, I added a Thick Basic White card layer embossed with the Distressed Tile 3D embossing folder (debossed side up). In between the layers of gold leafy paper and gold and white grid-patterned paper, I added a die-cut Basic White tab on which I had stamped and gold-embossed the word "Love". Both of these patterned papers are from the Nature's Sweetness DSP pack.
From Soft Sea Foam card, I die-cut some small leaves, also using the Lovely & Sweet Dies that were used for the larger pieces.
I used the Dark Soft Sea Foam Stampin' Blends marker to colour some Basic Pearls - although the result is very subtle!
The Dark Soft Sea Foam Stampin' Blends marker was also used to colour some Vanilla Gold Satin-Edged Ribbon. After tying it in a bow, I adhered it to my card using Glue Dots.
Here's a look at the inside of the card. I stamped the sentiment (from Lifetime of Love) in Soft Sea Foam ink, on Soft Sea Foam card, then cut it out using a Thoughtful Expressions Die. Underneath the sentiment label, I tucked a leaf I'd die-cut from Nature's Sweetness DSP, using a Notes of Nature Die. The added flower was fussy-cut from the same piece of paper, and I used Soft Sea Foam Stampin' Blends to add colour to the leaves and flower.
