August Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #45

Welcome to our August Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #45. You may have joined me from Meighans’ Blog or you may be starting right here. Either way, welcome to our blog hop.

This months Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge. The Colours we’re using this month is Real Red, Tahitian Tide and Crushed Curry. When I first saw these colours I was thinking, sure this will be easy. Then when I started playing I had a couple of second thoughts but when I got into the swing of creating 4 cards came out in very quick succession.

I chose to use the Kindest Gnomes Stamp set and this made my creating quite simple. I went to one of my favourite techniques, Masking and decided to use Stampin’ Up!’s masking paper. This stuff is brilliant! Using blending brushes I created 2 cards with the masking technique and then another card with just the brushes onto Basic White card. My last card I chose to use strips of each colour as a background and added in some Basic Gray as my neutral. I did cheat a little and added in Smoky Slate as a second neutral.

When I did my facebook live a few weeks ago I also created this short video so you can see how I created the cards. So if you’re short on time check out the less than 5 minute video below. However, if you have some more time you might want to check out this post which talks about the cards I created.
