Monochromatic Shells Card – Crafty Challenge Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by a dice roll giving us masking, standard vertical, pearl, for you and black and white. I have made my monochromatic shell card using the Shell Collecting stamp set.

 

Colours used to make this card are:

I cut a circle, centrally in the upper half of the larger, scrap piece of Basic White card.

I used a Blending Brush to add a little Memento Tuxedo Black ink to the exposed circle. The masking panel was then removed.

Scrap Basic White card

 

Using one of the Basic Borders Dies, I cut the cloud edge from scrap Basic White card. I used the die cut edge with a Blending Brush to add Boho Blue ink to the 5¼” by 3½” piece of Basic White card.

The inked panel was then glued to the Pebbled Path layer and then to the Fresh Freesia card front.

I stamped the three balloons in combinations of Lemon Lolly, Fresh Freesia and Balmy Blue inks. The baskets were stamped in Pebbled Path ink. I die cut all the images using the Hot Air balloon Dies.

The sentiment from the Simply Said stamp set, which will be available in the new Annual Catalogue from the 2nd April 2025, was stamped in Versamark ink onto the strip of Pebbled Path card, covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it. I added it to the card front on Dimensionals.

A scattering of Tinsel Gems from the 3 pack finished the card.
