This week, week 12 in the Colour Creations blog hop we continue our journey featuring all of the Core Stampin' Up! colours, in alphabetical order. This week's feature colour is Calypso Coral, is a member of the Subtles colour group . For my card this week I have "broken out" yet another recently new purchased stamp set, Amazing Year, along with some new dies, Fabulous Frames. I have taken my colour inspiration from one of the beautiful papers I have chosen, Awash in Beauty. The colours in the paper are Calypso Coral, Balmy Blue and the paper features Granny Apple Green, but I have chosen Old Olive instead. The base layer of my card is one of the papers from the Awash in Beauty and i have overlayed this with the lattice frame from Organic Beauty dies. For tose of you who read my latest post for the Heart Of Christmas will be pleased to know that this time I remembered to use the Adhesive Sheets! I have then added a piece of the paper from Happy Forest Friends which features Calypso Coral and I have embossed this using one of the Splatters and Stripes folders which you can see a bit better in the photo below. To the edges of this I have attached a couple of pieces of the new Balmy Blue and White Double Stitched ribbon, highlighting the Balmy Blue from the background paper. For the focal point of my card I have stamped an image from Amazing Year in Black memento and then coloured it using Stampin' Blends in Calypso Coral, Old Olive and Balmy Blue. I have then framed this using Calypso Coral. The sentiment is from the same stamp set and has been stamped in Calypso Coral and then die cut using one of the new dies from the mini called, Labels Aglow. Finally I may have gone a bit overboard with the embellishments using Brushed Brass Butterflies on the coloured panel, Pastel Pearls on the patterned paper and finally Champagne Rhinestones on the sentiment panel. Next in tonight's blog hop is the lovely Andrea Sargent. I look forward to seeing her lovely creation.
