Coloured Hydrangea for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Colour Combo blog hop and this month we have been given colours that I would never have put together. I have used the gorgeous Hydrangea Haven stamp set to make my coloured Hydrangea card.

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the coloured hydrangea card, you will need:

Magenta Madness – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right corner
Shaded Spruce – 5⅛” by 3⅜” – Rounded upper right corner
Basic White – 5” by 3¼” – Rounded upper right corner
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded upper right corner
Flirty Flamingo – 4⅛” by ½”

I mounted the stamp onto the plate of the Stamparatus and placed the smaller Basic White panel on the platform.

 

Using the Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Write Marker I inked up the stem and leaves of the flower. I stamped it down onto the Basic White panel. I repeated this step to get a darker impression.

I used the Magenta Madness Stampin’ Write Marker to ink up the flower head and again repeated the process to get a good impression. The infill stamp was inked up in Flirty Flamingo ink, I stamped it off onto scrap paper before stamping the colour over the flower head. I used the same 2^nd generation Shaded Spruce ink to the leaves and stem using the infill stamp.

The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped in Magenta Madness ink. The stamped layer was then glued to the Shaded Spruce panel.

I added the strip of Flirty Flamingo card to the Magenta Madness card front and added the stamped panel over top on Dimensionals.

To complete the card, I added a trio of Artistry Blooms Sequins.

Although I would probably never have put these colours together, I actually really like this card.
