Parcels & Petals on In Colours ~ Thank You Cards

Hello and welcome back to my blog today.

Today I am sharing some cards that I have made using three of the gorgeous new in colours, Rococo Rose, Pretty Peacock (my personal favourite) and Terracotta Tile.

I am absolutely loving using the new colours and having so much fun.

I really wanted to also try out one of the brand new bundles…Parcels & Petals.

When I looked at this bundle, all I could think about was all the pretty boxes I could make with the gorgeous coordinating dies, however I really wanted to show how it’s also a great set to make cards!

I have made a set of three cards showing off both the dies and the stamps. I hope that you get some inspiration.

Here’s the set of three cards I made.

From the left: Rococo Rose, Pretty Peacock and finally Terracotta Tile.

I have combined a few products here. I sponged the background with a Sponge Brayer with the coordinating ink pads to create an ombre effect and then splattered water in my hand and flicked it over the cardstock to create that splattered look.

I love that about our inks…they react to water!

I have pulled in some embellishments like Linen Thread, Gold Glimmer Paper and some of those gorgeous Bird Ballad Trinkets. I have already gone through a whole packet of those!

Here’s a close up of the embellishments.

As you can see I have also pulled in the coordinating In Colour Faceted Dots. These are so much fun and make great flower centres!

I have also used some of our gorgeous Burlap trim for some added texture.

I couldn’t be done without making a coordinating envelope so I used the coordinating colour to the card and one of the gorgeous sentiments from the stamp set.

I couldn’t have a naked inside either, so I have added some decoration here with a sentiment and I also pulled in the coordinating colour in the 6×6 DSP stack for a strip down the bottom.

I hope you got some inspiration today to use these pretty new in colours and the gorgeous Parcels & Petals bundle.

Back to the craft desk.

Happy crafting. xx
