AWH Colour Creations Showcase - Week 13: Crushed Curry

 

Its another week and another Stampin'Up! colour!


Art with Heart participants are using - Crushed Curry - for this week's Colour Creations Showcase.

I've teamed a Crush Curry card base with Early Expresso and Granny Apple Green cardstock. 


The background cardstock has been embossed with the Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder. I used this embossing folder because I thought it sort of mimics the giraffe's spots.


The giraffe is from the Back on your Feet stamp set. I stamped the giraffe in Early Expresso on Crushed Curry and coloured the spots with an Early Expresso Stampin' Write Marker. I fussy cut the giraffe and adhered it to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals. There is a little bit of Wink of Stella on the spots!

The "tree" is die cut from the Forever Flourishing die set, and I must admit, the Wink of Stella got another workout. 

The greeting is also from the Back on your Feet stamp set and is stamped in Early Expresso on Crushed Curry. I cut the greeting up to separate the words.This card could be used as a "Get Well'' card, but it could also be sent to anyone during these trying times - Covid-19 is KNOT good!

I decorated the inside of this card with a narrow strip of the embossed cardstock and another "tree".

I hope you like this week''s card. To see what other members of the team have made click here.

See you next week. Until then take care. Only 18 days (hopefully) of Lockdown 2.0 to go Melbourne!

  5. Is it called Wink of Stella because in the amount of time it takes me to wink, you’ve already emptied the the whole thing! Very cool card though!
