Crafty Vases Card – Crafty Challenge Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop where we have a colour challenge to inspire us. I have made my card using the adorable Pop-up Petals stamp set and dies.

 

Colours used to make this card are:

 

To recreate the crafty vases card, you will need:

Poppy Parade card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at on the long side at 4⅛”
Azure Afternoon card – 4⅞” by 3⅛”
Basic White card – 4¾” by 3”

I glued the strip of Calypso Coral card diagonally across the Poppy Parade card front and trimmed of the excess.

The sentiment was stamped near the bottom of the 4¾” by 3” panel of Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I masked off the words I didn’t want to use.

On scrap Basic White card, I stamped the tall vase with Pretty Peacock ink and the spotted bowl with Azure Afternoon ink. The rose and daisies were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto scrap Basic White card.

The daisy petals were stamped in Calypso Coral ink; the flower centre s were then added with 2nd generation Pretty Peacock ink. The leaves were coloured with a Light Pretty Peacock Blends Pen. The rose flower was stamped with Poppy Parade ink and the leaves with 2nd generation Pretty Peacock ink. All these images were then die cut using the Pop-up Petals Dies.

The vases and flowers were added to the stamped white panel on Dimensionals, and the piece was glued to the Azure Afternoon layer and the whole piece was then adhered to the Poppy Parade card front.

Vibrant Vases for the Inspire, Create Challenge #034

Today I am sharing the sweet card I made for the Inspire Create colour challenge #034 using the new Vibrant Vases stamp set. I love that Stampin’ Up! have brought us another stamp set to use with our existing Vases Builder Punch, such great value for money.

Challenge

For the challenge we had to use the following colours:

Making the card

I began by stamping the base colours of each of the vases in either Call Me Clover, Calypso Coral or Pineapple Punch inks onto scrap Whisper White cardstock. I checked which way the images were punched out using the Vases Builder Punch to make sure I stamped them the correct way up. I the stamped the detailed version of each vase over the top using Night of Navy ink, I love the two tone look this gives to the vases. I then punched out each of the vases using the Vases Builder Punch.

Using the fab new Stitched Rectangle dies I cut a stitched rectangle from a piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 4 ¼” by 3”. Placing each vase on the die cut Whisper White panel to get an idea of placement, I moved each vase aside and stamped the flowers in Memento Tuxedo Black ink – I had originally thought I would colour the flowers in with Blends but changed my mind.

Using the Pineapple Punch, Lovely Lipstick, Calypso Coral and Call Me Clover ink I filled in each of the flowers and leaves. I love that the infill stamps leave some white space on the flowers, so pretty. Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive I added the vases below the flowers.

I then die cut a the next size up stitched rectangle from Night of Navy cardstock and the next size again from Whisper White cardstock and glued the 3 rectangle layers together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Taking a Lovely Lipstick card base I added ¼” strips of Pineapple Punch, Calypso Coral, Call Me Clover and Night of Navy ink to the upper right side of the card front and added the stamped piece over the top on Stampin’ Dimensionals. To finish the card off I added some of the Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots.

I am really happy with this card, the colours really sing.
