Colour Creations Blog Hop - Week 43 - Pumpkin Pie

 Welcome to week 43 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop for 2023-24. This week we will be looking at the colour Pumpkin Pie!

For you this week I have created a special background for my card using Pumpkin Pie, Gorgeous Grape and Blackberry Bliss.

For my project today I have used a couple of dies, some blending brushes and the sentiment from the Perennial Postage stamp set! So how did I create my card!

 

I started with a piece of Basic White and then using the blending brushes coloured in differing depths Pumpkin Pie, Blackberry Bliss, and Gorgeous Grape.

 I cut my bended background into 1 cm strips and turned each 2nd strip around and adhered them to a slightly smaller piece of Basic White than the size of a card front.

As you can see the lines are  bit pronounced in between each strip so.....

I took out the Pumpkin Pie blending brush and went over the whole card again trying to make sure the lines were less "white"

To finish the card I used the leaf die from the Artistic Die set in Basic White. Guess what? I actually remembered to use the adhesive sheets this tie before die cutting! Wow! How easy it was to adhere the leaf to the front of my card. I then white heat embossed on Basic Black the sentiment from the Perennial Postage stamp set and used the little label die from Gorgeously Made to cut it out! I popped that on with dimensionals. Everything was then adhered with dimensionals onto a Thick Basic White card Base.

I had so much fun creating this back ground and it looks like a gorgeous sun set! I hope you give it a try with some of your favourite colours!
