Stampin' Up! Biggest Wish and Plenty of Patterns Decorative Masks Birthday Card

Today, we have week nine 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 Michele Taylor's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

For this weeks blog hop, we are focusing on the colour, calypso coral. 
I have chosen calypso coral, crushed curry and bermuda bay from the colour coach to work from this week. 

For my card today it actually came together rather quickly which to be honest, can be unusual. I know some other demo friends where struggling with their calypso Coral creations and as I had left my creating till late thanks to watching the Olympics I was pleased to not struggle. Thanks to the "plenty of patterns decorative masks", "blending brushes" and my chosen colour coach colours it was a breeze to create my card. I blended bermuda bay ink into crushed curry ink and finished off by adding in the calypso coral ink. All of this ink blending was done on basic white cardstock.   
I heat embossed the "happy" sentiment in white embossing powder on basic black cardstock and stamped the "birthday" portion in calypso coral ink onto basic white cardstock. Both are raised up with stampin' dimensionals. I finished off the card front with some matte black dots.

Colour Creations #14 - Daffodil Delight

Our fourteenth colour we are focusing on for the colour collections blog hop is "daffodil delight" from the brights collection. I have chosen daffodil delight, mango melody and poppy parade from the colour coach to work with today for my creation. 
Here is my daffodil delight card from 2018. 

I decided to make an emoji style birthday card for my creation this week using punch art and focused on using my chosen colours for the emoji and the party hat. I had to use a lot of dies to create the punch art "look". I gave the party hat a bit of texture with shimmery white embossing paste and the basic pattern decorative mask and finished the hat off with a tassel I created using a cog from garage gears thinlit dies. The rest of the card was completed with a "happy b*day" that was inspired from the happiest of birthdays stamp set. I think it works well with the emoji image. Perfect for the younger teenage crowd.

Stampin' Up! decorative backgrounds using masks techniques class

For my January techniques class I focused on using the decorative masks in a different way; with white craft ink and a white gel pen. An extension on your basic supplies and a way to get more milage from what you probably already own. We created backgrounds on various coloured cardstock and used them to create the base of our cards (and a sample piece). 


Card 1 - Featuring to a wild rose bundle and the free level 1 sale-a-bration stamp set, sending you thoughts
