For Colour Palette #22 I have created a Christmas card with the So Very Merry stamp set. This stamp set, which earlier sold out very quickly, is back in stock and I’m so glad as I really love the unusual stained glass look of it.
The small bird was watercoloured to resemble a robin using Ink Refills and a Water Painter. This was then fussy cut. Although a small element, I created a focal image from it by layering it on 2 die cut circles.
On the larger circle I blended Cajun Craze ink over the Foursquare dies. This was layered onto White cardstock embossed with the Timber Embossing Folder.
The Real Red Festive Pearls were coloured with the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blend to coordinate with my bird.
I’ve followed the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #FMS601 and chosen Timber and Twine as the 2 elements from the Just Add Ink Just Chosse Two challenge.
I hope you have been inspired by this card and consider adding the So Very Merry stamp set to your next order. When you place an order of $90 with me during September you will receive 2 tutorial bundles with a total of 70 tutorials. That’s lots of inspiration and ideas for you to try.

Today my card has been inspired by Colour Palette #13. I wondered what I had got myself into when I started to create with these colours as 3 of them were blue/purple tones. Some Natural Tone Stampin’ Blends really bring this card together and I love how it turned out.
For the focal point I used the Nested Essentials dies which leant itself to creating a slimline card. The flower from the Irresistible Blooms bundle was stamped on Basic White and coloured in with Calypso Coral and Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends. I die cut 3 flowers from Calypso Coral Cardstock and layered all the flowers together.
The leaves were die cut from Basic White Cardstock and coloured with a range of Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends.
To incorporate the Highland Heather I used the Foursquare Mask to create a background on the Nested Essentials Dies. Some additional leaves were stamped in Starry Sky and added to my floral arrangement.
The matte layer of Orchid Oasis Cardstock was run through the embossing folder twice which enabled me to mboss the entire length. This added a lovely texture to a plain background.
