Delicate Dahlias – Casually Crafting Design Team Blog Hop

Welcome to Casually Crafting Blog Hop. 

The Casually Crafting Design Team is made up of a group of Independent Stampin’ Up! ® Demonstrators from around the word, that enjoy sharing our take on casual crafting.

This months hop is all about Colour with a Colour Challenge: Pear Pizzazz – Daffodil Delight – Polished Pink

Today I have used the Delicate Dahlias from the 2021 Sale-A-bration, along with the Plenty of Patterns Decorative Masks from the Annual Catalogue.

You can earn the Delicate Dahlias stamps when you spend $180 from the Annual or mini Catalogues.

The ombre back ground was created by using the Blending brushes to blend the daffodil delight Ink from the bottom to the top. Working the colour darker to lighter.

The Dahlias and leaves were stamped onto Basic White Cardstock , then fussy cut. I stamped the dahlias twice with both the outline stamp and the Distinktive stamp using the Polished Pink Ink Pad. One dahlia was cut around the outer edge, the other was cut further in to form two layers. The petals were slightly shaped before layering together using dimensionals.

The leaves were stamped using the Pear Pizzazz Ink Pad, fussy cut and tucked under the dahlia.

The sentiment is from the Lovely You Stamps, stamped onto basic Black cardstock and heat embossed with white embossing powder.

This month the Casually Crafting Design Team are participating in a colour challenge to share with you…using the 2021-22 In-colours as our inspiration.

Colour Challenge by Casually Crafting

I am really loving this years In-Colours and they all work so well together. For my card I have used the Prized Peony Stamps by Stampin’ Up! to stamp the flowers in Fresh Freesia, Polished Pink and Pale Papaya. Filling in the gaps with leaves stamped in Soft Succulent.

Instructions

  • Adhere the Evening Evergreen Designer Series Paper to the Card Base.
  • Masks – Stamp at least 2 images of the Peony onto post-it notes and fussy cut.
  • Stamp the first image onto Basic White Cardstock using Polished Pink ink, cover image with one of the masks. Stamp the second image overlapping the masked image in Fresh Freesia ink, cover the new image with the second mask and then stamp again using Pale Papaya ink.
  • Keep covering the previously stamped image and repeat stamping until the Basic White cardstock is covered.
  • Leave a few white space around the Peony’s which can be filled with leaves stamped in Soft Succulent.
  • Trim down the stamped cardstock down to 7 x 14.6cm
  • Adhere the Soft Succulent mat to the stamped Card Front
  • Wrap White Backers Twine around the Card Front 3 times and tie off with a bow.
  • Add dimensionals to the back of card front and attach to the matted Card Base, positioning it towards the left side of the card base.
  • Stamp the sentiment onto the Basic White cardstock sentiment piece, using the Evening Evergreen Ink. Trim the width down to 2.5cm and flag the left hand side using the Banners Pick A Punch. Trim the right hand side straight, add dimensionals to the back of the sentiment. Put two dimensionals on top of one another and attach to the right hand side of the sentiment so it sits flat across the two leavels.
  • Add some of the using the 2021-22 In-Colour Jewels
  • Adhere the Card Insert into the inside of the card Base.
