Blended Seasons Artisan Blog Hop

July 5, 2018 By Kim McGillis 10 Comments

Hi Stampers!  It’s time for another Artisan blog hop.  Today we are featuring the Colour Your Season Bundle that includes the Blended Seasons Stamp Set, it’s coordinating Stitched Seasons Framelits and the Watercoloring Pencils Assortment 2.

You may have just arrived here from my amazing and talented friend Kayla MacAulay from Australia. I love the 3 cards she created!

The Colour Your Season features exclusive products available for a limited time only.  The Blended Seasons bundle is perfect for crafting in any season, in any part of the world!  The coordinating Stitched Seasons Framelits Dies adds just the right touch to every project. Boost your colour collection with the watercoloring pencil assortment, including some of Stampin’up!’s brand new colors! Check out for more  details HERE

For today’s hop, I decided to showcase Fall Cards.  Fall is my favourite season!  I’m as much in love with the Colour Your Season Bundle than I am with fall. The framelits are perfect for a textured look in the background and colouring the leaves was so easy and relaxing to do.

How to create this look:

  • Cut a 4 1/4 x 11 piece of Whisper White Cardstock and score at 5 1/2
  • Cut a 4 x 5 1/4 piece of Crushed Curry or Rich Razzleberry  Cardstock
  • Use the new Big Shot Embossing mats with the framelits to create the embossing background
  • Cut a 1/4 x 11 inch of colored cardstock, with a bonefolder break the fibers in the cardstock and create a cardstock ribbon
  • See instructions below on how to watercolour using the water color crayons
  • Embellish with cardstock pieces made with the framelits, as well as Faceted Dots
  • Emboss part of the greeting with white Embossing powder
  • Punch out the greeting with the Classic Label Punch. Snip each side of the punched cardstock

You can recreate the same look in different colours.  I combined Rich Razzleberry and Crushed Curry.

How to colour the leaves:

  • Stamp your image with Staz On ink onto water colour paper
  • Colour your image with the watercolour pencils  ( I used Cajun Craze and Crushed Curry)
  • Blend the colour with an aqua painter

 

 

Crushed Curry
Rich Razzleberry

    These are stunning Kim!
    I’m with you, Fall (well Autumn here in Australia) is my favourite season too. I love the rich colours and the warmth (but not too cold)
    Your cards are stunning. I love the background you created with the embossing matt. That is gorgeous.
