Welcome to the weekend friends, We’re kicking off our Saturday with Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Insta Hop challenge. This week we are featuring Cajun Craze which is part of our Regals collection. I love this deep, rich colour and used it in a variety of ways on my card today using the Iconic Imagery bundle.
I started with 6 pieces of the Iconic Celebrations Designer Series Paper. These were slightly longer on one side and I arranged them evenly on an Early Espresso matte layer.
HOW TO CREATE CENTRE LABEL
- Cut 1cm strips of Iconic Celebrations DSP
- Adhere to Basic White Cardstock
- Die cut with the label die
- Emboss with Painted Texture Embossing Folder
- Using a Blending Brush, go over the raised areas of the image with Early Espresso ink
- Go around the outer edges of the die cut using a Blending Brush with Early Espresso and Crumb Cake ink
- Die cut a label from Crumb Cake Cardstock
- Cut this in half and adhere under the striped label to form a matte
I set out to use a Cajun Craze card base for my card base but found the colour a bit too deep for the look I was going for. Instead of changing my design, I decided to get creative with ink blending. By blending Petal Pink Cardstock with Cajun Craze ink, I achieved a lighter shade of Cajun Craze that perfectly complemented my card.
Once I had done this I needed another element that blended in with this tone so I die cut the large leaf from Petal Pink Cardstock and blended with Cajun Craze and Early Espresso ink. Around this I added several other stamped and die cut autumn leaves.
I cut apart the gold ribbon and added strands under the heat embossed sentiment to add a striking contrast against all the rich Cajun Craze elements.
I hopey you have enjoyed this creation and you can find a fully supply list at the bottom of this post. If you live in Australia, you can shop supplies in my Online Store or by getting in touch with me.
Have a lovely day.
