COLOUR PAIRINGS
Welcome to Valley Inspirations with Andrea and the February Be Inspired Blog Hop where we are focusing on projects that highlight Colour Pairings . However you have arrived here, whether from Stesha Bloodhart or directly here, I am so delighted that you are here.
As I thought of Colour Pairings, my mind went to colour buddies that work brilliantly together and have certain similarities. It was hard to choose, but I decided on a stunning pairing of two 2025-2027 In Colours, ie Secret Sea and Cloud Cover. The latter is almost a lighter version of the former. To lift these two colours to extra heights Fresh Freesia was added to provide a clearer and pretty contrast. What do you think of this colour combination?
Together with Cloud Cover, Secret Sea and Fresh Freesia this card also showcases a soon to be released bundle (and coordinating suite) called Delicate Whispers. I adore the stamped images and detailed dies - so beautiful.
The images were stamped in Secret Sea and coloured with either Secret Sea, Cloud Cover and Fresh Freesia using ink in the stamp pad lid and a Blender Pen. Some feathery leaves were cut from Cloud Cover Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper and the little berries from the Secret Sea Lovely Blossoms Designer Series Paper. A strip from both of these DSPs were layered down the left side over a Basic White panel that had been dry embossed with the Paradise Garden 3D Embossing Folder.
All the stamped and die cut pieces were arranged down the card front near the DSP. Some Secret Sea Bordered Open Weave ribbon was wrapped around the card front and tied into a bow. A sentiment from the Delicate Whispers stamps was white heat embossed on Secret Sea card-stock. The final touches - Frosted Iridescent Dots (from the Last Chance List) were sprinkled around.
The inside of the card was simply decorated with a little torn DSP and some extra stamped and die cut pieces.
A C6 Basic White Envelope was stamped with the flax flower images in Secret Sea ink. The card inner and envelope only need simple adornment to coordinate them with the card design.
Thank you so much for dropping in on your way around February's Be Inspired Blog Hop. I so appreciate time spent with you.
I am really looking forward to seeing what everyone else has created for the Colour Pairings February Blog Hop. Next in line is the amazing Angela Meiritz-Reid.
