AWHT Colour Creations #15 Crumb Cake

Crumb Cake with Merriest Moments

Hello. Welcome to Valley Inspirations with Andrea and the Art with Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop. We are working though the Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order. 

This week’s Blog Hop is focussing on a biscuity colour called Crumb Cake. Crumb Cake is part of the Neutrals Colour Family and is a soft versatile colour. This is a lovely colour and can be used in so many situations; consider sand, wood, rocks, stems of flowers and so much more. As a neutral it can go with many colours. I love it with Petal Pink, Basic White and metallics, which are the colours used in this project.

Crumb Cake is produced in Stampin' Up!'s card-stock, both A4 & 12"x12"; Classic Stampin' inks (ink pads & re-inkers); Stampin' Write Markers; Stampin' Blends; Neutrals Designer Series Paper as well as Painted Christmas, Abigail Rose, and Tea Boutique DSPs; plus the Bakers Twine Essentials Pack; Christmas Whimsy and A Million Thanks Card Kits and Abigail Rose File Folders. 

Here is my card for this blog hop:

I love using Crumb Cake for Christmas projects, whether it's with a range of reds and greens or a more alternative colour scheme, like this one. I also really love white with Crumb Cake but couldn't resist adding a little Petal Pink and Gold.

The background Crumb Cake card-stock panel was dry embossed with the pine folder from the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders pack. Some Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue was smeared over parts of the embossed panel and Gilded Flakes were sprinkled over and the excess rubbed off. I love this relaxed gold effect peeking through the top layers. This background panel was adhered directly to the Crumb Cake card base.

The Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder and Dies were used to cut and emboss a Vellum card-stock frame. A second one was also cut, so extra Vellum foliage could be added around the frame. A sentiment from the Hope & Peace stamp set was white heat embossed on Petal Pink card-stock using White Emboss Powder (found as part of the Basic Stampin' Emboss Powders), Versamark ink and a Heat Tool. Some poinsettias and foliage from the Merriest Moments stamp set were white heat embossed on Vellum. They were cut out with the coordinating dies.

Glue Dots or Dimensionals were used to arrange the floral pieces and Petal Pink Elegant Faceted Gems were added to the poinsettias' centres and some more were scattered around to give a little sparkle. Gold Holly Leaves were tucked under the flowers.

A Basic White card-stock inner was stamped with poinsettias in Petal Pink Classic Stampin' ink and the flower centres & a sentiment from the Merriest Moments stamp set were stamped in Crumb Cake Classic ink. A Basic White C6 envelope was similarly stamped.

Thank you so much for dropping by. I do value the time you spent with me.
