Stampin' Up! Hello Floral Squares Dies Card

Today, we have week six of the colour creations blog hop. We have returned to the traditional blog hop like a circle, for this new round so we hop you enjoy blog hoping round to everyone's blog. You may have found me via Kristine D'Auria's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 
For this weeks blog hop, we are focusing on the colour, blushing bride.
I have chosen blushing bride, highland heather and garden green from the colour coach to work from this week and I snuck in some balmy blue.

I have made a hello card this week. With the sweet floral square dies I decided a hello sentiment was perfect so it can be used for a variety of occasions. I die cut the "square". in balmy blue and garden green cardstock and the additional floral pieces in highland heather. You maybe wondering how did I get the basic black edging if I only die cut the frame in two colours? I used my stampin' write markers and drew around the garden green frame to create the illusion of a black frame. It was much easier than fussy cutting the leaves etc. because I tried that as well!
I have raised my floral frame up off my card using foam adhesive sheets for height and dimension. I tried to create a "double matt" look with the blushing bride cardstock for elegance and sophistication. 


I used the offcut from the balmy blue to act as a stencil (leftover from creating the card front) to decorate the envelope and used the blending brushes for the subtle colouring on the envelope. 


Inside card - is a replication of the front panel and left blank for plenty of writing


Up next we have Christine Blain. I can't wait to see what she is sharing.

Oh, how lovely! I think the this is the best card I've seen with these dies. I love the colour combo, and a great idea to use the offcut to sponge the envelope!

[Rachel Woollard]

Funky card Ros, I love the layout you've used for this card

[CHRISTINE BLAIN]

Oh, this is delightful, Ros! The Floral Squares Dies are so cute, and I love what you've done with them. Great way to decorate the envelope, too.

[Catherine Proctor]

What a neat trick for creating your frame Ros - your card is so elegant and refined - love it!

[Kate Morgan]

This is so cool Ros. I hadn't even looked twice at these dies. I love how you've used the negative to create the stencil, very clever.

[Kristine M D'Auria]

I love how these colours just pop out at you. The blushing Bride colour really is a beautiful backdrop to the flowers. Beautiful card Ros.

[Rachel Palmieri]

As always Ros you’ve managed to create a lovely card from a colour combo that I would struggle with. Just lovely

[Diane Furniss]

You have done a great job with this set. Not one I would have thought to purchase but you have done it justice.
