Kre8tors Blog Hop Colour Challenge


Kre8tors Blog Hop

Welcome to this months Kre8tors Blog Hop,
We are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators
from all over the world sharing card making
and papercraft ideas and inspiration using
Stampin' Up! rubber stamps and products.

Your currently with me Laura Mackie a Stampin' Up!
Demonstrator from the United Kingdom. 

Each month we have a theme and this months theme is a 
Colour Challenge 'Tropical Nights' see pic below.

Heres what I came up with

Laura Mackie Stampin' Up!

When I saw this photo I instantly thought holiday,
I was thinking evening stroll on a beach, sea, 
Palm Trees and warm sunshine!
I blame the yukky wet weather on my wild imagination 
right now! we've been having lots of lots of rain here in the UK 
oh and covid 19 and lockdown! 
anyone else blaming C'19 for EVERYTHING!

Card making Ideas

I used the My Meadow Stamp set from Stampin' Up!
to stamp the images, in black memento ink, 
I have tried to create a silhouette look!

Stampin' Up! My Meadow

To create my sunset background I used a combination 
of Sponges and daubers with So Saffron, Rococo Rose 
and Misty Moonlight with a hint of Night of Navy
all sponged onto Whisper White cardstock


how to make backgrounds with ink

I created a Landscape and portrait version of the card, 
not sure which I prefer? which one do you prefer??
let me know in the comments.

I made a quick video sharing how
I made my card 



card measurements

Card base 21cm x 14.85cm score in half at 10.5cm
