Welcome to the first Colour Combo Blog Hop of 2021

The three colours for this month are Bumblebee, Melon Mambo and Pool Party

For this Blog Hop I decided to carry on with the theme of 10cm x 10cm simple cards but this time using the Queen Anne’s Lace stamp set from the annual catalogue.

I started off by cutting six Whisper White 10cm x 10cm card bases. Next I cut two 9.5cm x 9.5cm mat layers in the three colours. I then cut six Whisper White 9cm x 9cm mat layers to stamp the images on.

Card 1

Three simple cards using Lady Anne's Lace stamp set, using the colours Bumblebee, Melon Mambo and Pool Party

First I stamped the main flower image using Smoky Slate ink and then used the three colours to stamp the smaller flowers on top of the stamped Smoky Slate image.

This mat layer I then stuck to one of the coloured mat layers before sticking to one of the card bases.

Card 2

Three simple cards using Lady Anne's Lace stamp set, using the colours Bumblebee, Melon Mambo and Pool Party and showing the tissue technique.

For this card I stamped the main flower image onto white tissue using memento ink. Then I stamped the smaller flower image using each colour as for the first card.

Next once the ink was dry I scrunched up each piece of stamped tissue paper.

I spread multi purpose glue over the Whisper White mat layer and opened up the tissue paper enough to lay over the mat layer but still leaving it creased.

Then as per the first card I stuck this layer onto one of the coloured mat layers before sticking it onto one of the card bases.

I love how the glue has made the coloured ink run slightly. I think if it was stamped in green it would look like a tree.

Now I can now add a suitable sentiment later when I need to send the card out.
