Colour Creations Blog Hop - Week 11 - 2023-2024 - Basic Gray

 

Welcome to week 11 of the Colour Creations Blog Hop and this week we are looking at one of our Neutral colours, Basic Gray.

Today my card is all about Daffy. Daffy is a Alpaca who loves to craft with others but she definitely has a mind of her own and really didn't want to knit what the others were knitting she only wanted to knit with Basic Gray. 

Now Daffy is a fun Alpaca and she loves to spin a yarn or two so she is sitting in the centre with the circle of  Vellum Basics Specialty DSP behind her head. 

As you can see these Alpacas have decided they didn't want to knit in Alpaca wool as shown on the Zany Zoo stamp set so they are knitting in cotton from the Crafting with you Bundle. For some reason Daffy didn't get the memo to knit a coloured scarf she is knitting in all Basic Gray!

These are all the fun colours  that I used in this project.

Now I have placed all our lovely knitting friends and their baskets of cotton yarn on a blanket of Basic Gray that has been embossed with the Twisted Rope 3D embossing folder. Yes I know it is from the suite with all the fishing tackle and might be used for male cards but I saw it as a knitted blanket! I also stamped the sentiment from the Crafting with you stamp set in Basic Gray and cut it out with the Deckled rectangle dies and popped it up with some dimensionals after curling some Silver Elegant trim back and forth underneath.

If you would like to purchase any of these cute products or have any questions about my project today please do not hesitate to contact me.

Now is the time to head to the next person on our journey of Basic Gray and today you will be heading to the fabulous Ros Davidson. I can't wait to see what she has come up with today. She uses the colour couch each week and if you follow her she will ask you to guess which of the 3 colour combinations she is going to use. I can't wait to see which one she picked this week and if I guessed correctly! Just hit the next blog button and you will go directly there!

If for any reason there is a break in one of the links please head back here and go to our blog hop host, the lovely Cathy Proctor and there she will have the list of all those participating this week in the Basic Gray colour challenge! Cathy's Blog.

Thank you for spending some crafty time with me today, take care,
