Hi!
Thanks for joining me for the new Colour Creations Creative Showcase. I nearly didn't make it in time for this week (it was a super crazy weekend), but thankfully I was just able to squeak in. The colour of the day is Magenta Madness, another of our new In Colours. It's a quite neon pink colour - definitely a bold choice!
I had these Silver Foil pieces left over from another card that I recently made. I'd used an Adhesive Sheet on the back, which kept all of the pieces in their correct place. I simply applied some Press'n'Seal to the front of the foil, flipped it over and removed the backing of the Adhesive Sheet and the flipped it again to adhere to the Magenta Madness card base. All I had to do then was (very carefully!) peel back the Press'n'Seal, making sure that the foil stayed in place on the card base.
I then used the same Many Layered Blossoms die to cut the Basic Black outline and adhere it over the top. I really love the drama of the colours. The sentiment, from the coordinating Blossoms In Bloom stamp set, was heat embossed in white on a strip of Basic Black, finished off with a few Magenta Madness Enamel Dots.
I had one sweet little bloom left for the inside. I'd already discarded the little silver pieces from the centre of the blossom, so I used my Light Magenta Madness Stampin' Blend to colour the inner sections.
That's all from me for tonight, now it's time to pop on over to Catherine's blog, where you will find the rest of this week's Magenta Madness links.
Bye for now,
Tina
Tina I'm super impressed you had the time to create a card fro tonight and it is a super impressive card too. I love the boldness of Magenta with black and silver - great colour choice! Thank you for sharing your beautiful Magenta Madness card with us tonight!
ReplyDeleteVery stylish card Tina, lovely job
ReplyDeleteThis bold colour combination is very striking, Tina. Well done, getting all those "bits" to go back where they were supposed to! You have more patience than I!
ReplyDeleteTina, you are amazing. Creating such a great card after the week you have had. Magenta Madness, with black and silver is striking. Your description of the paper piecing process makes it sound so simple - I can see me getting into trouble ... xxx
ReplyDeleteA fantastic, dramatic card, Tina, I love the foil and black with Magenta!
ReplyDeleteWow very striking Tina, I love it.
ReplyDeleteI love how you have used the left over silver pieces and if has created a very striking card. I plan on doing the same with my leftover pieces from the same die. Waste not!
ReplyDeleteBold, Bright and Beautiful, Tina.
ReplyDeleteYour card is just so striking Tina. I love it. The silver and black work perfectly with the very bright Magenta Madness.
ReplyDeleteWow Tina! That is awesome! Brilliant retro colour combination, and I can't believe you saved and used all those pieces - I would give up after the first flower LOL. Amazing card!
