Welcome to Week 3 of the Art with Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop. This week participating members of the team are creating with Basic Gray.
My card is very basic (excuse the pun) - just gray, white and a touch of blue for a "pop" of colour. I must give thanks to my stampin' buddies Joy and Marlene, who helped me decide which colour to use. edited - and Ben. Thank you
The card base is actually Thick Whisper White, to give the long tall card enough support, and I used the "normal" Whisper White for stamping on. I also used Basic Gray Cardstock, Basic Gray and Pacific Point ink, the new Biggest Wish Stamp Set, some Metalic Mesh Ribbon and Stampin' Dimensionals.
And of course I couldn't leave the inside of the card blank!
That's it from me. Now it's time to hop on over to our next participant, the very creative Caroline Manwaring!

Pacific Point was a great choice - it looks so good with Basic Gray on your card, Fiona. I love those big, bold, sentiments, too. Great card!
ReplyDeleteHey Ben - I love the blue, just sayin'! Hi Fiona, the blue is excellent choice on this very cool and graphic card - love it!
ReplyDeletehe is just annoyed cause he suggested the blue as well, and I didn't originally give him credit.
DeleteI had to edit my post to thank him :)
Hey Fiona, I love the boldness of your card. It may be basic to you, but from where I am sitting, it certainly stands out. I love the symmetry. Great card xox
ReplyDeleteFabulous! I love the symmetry of this card as well. Perfect for this stamp set too.
ReplyDeleteThat mesh gives such a great effect down the panel of your card. Love the blue with the gray and I really like how you stamped the inside, clever!
ReplyDeleteA great masculine card that works really well with a strong bold sentiment. Love how the sentiment has been stamped on the inside of the card.
ReplyDeleteFiona, Pacific Point looks amazing with Basic Gray and I love that mesh ribbon. I love the way you have stamped the inside too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great choice of colour to use with Basic Gray Fiona. you've managed to get a great ink coverage on the stamp as well. It's not always that easy with those bold stamps
ReplyDeleteGreat slimline card Fiona. I love the Pacific Point with the Basic Gray. Great choice.
ReplyDeleteI love the mesh ribbon you have used. It acts as a great background.
