Thanks for stopping by for our new Colour Creations Blog Hop. I love this week's feature colour - Bermuda Bay. It's a lovely mid blue-green that belongs to the Brights colour family.
I've once again looked to Brian King for a colour combo, and he hasn't disappointed. I love the pairing of Pool Party and Bermuda Bay, with Crumb Cake as an awesome neutral thrown into the mix.
I had actually hoped to make this card with an about to be released Sale-A-Bration stamp set, called Amazing Phrasing, except that my BBB hasn't been delivered yet. The stamp has a few words in a large font that's a bit wider than the font in Biggest Wish. Can you see the shadow effect with the word 'happy'? I think it would be more effective with the SAB stamp set. I will have to try it another week with a different colour.
I used my Tailor Made Tags dies for the focal part of the sentiment. I used the biggest tag to crop the Whisper White card, so I had to hand cut the Bermuda Bay layer underneath. It's easy enough to do when the outline is all straight lines.
Love the shadow effect, Tina, and the sharp graphic design of your card even though the stamp set you wanted to use had not arrived in time. And of course, I love anything with crumb cake, especially the way you've tied the crumb cake bakers twine into your tag.
ReplyDeleteGreat colour combo, Tina ... and I love all the "lines" on your card. The shadow effect, of the stamped sentiments, looks great.
ReplyDeleteGreat card Tina, I love the shadow effect on your card
ReplyDeleteOh Tina, your card is stunning. I so love the Pool Party shadow for the Bermuda Bay letters and the way you used the tag to focus on “Happy Birthday”. The Crumb Cake stripes are perfect. Xxx
ReplyDeleteOooh I love the shadow effect on your card Tina. Great colour choices and the stamped sentiment on the tag with the twine looks fabulous.
ReplyDeleteFantastic card Tina! Love the colour combination and the card is so striking and the shadow effect looks great! The double twine on the tag is great!
ReplyDeleteI agree, this is a lovely colour combo. The crumb cake makes everything pop. I love how you used the shadowing effect and I look forward to seeing how you use it with Amazing Phrasing x
ReplyDeleteI love the effect Tina and your choice of colour to use with Bermuda Bay works so well.
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic, Tina, the shadow effect is such a great technique and you've mastered it perfectly. Great colour choice too!
ReplyDeleteLovely colour combo, and the tag with chunky twine is a beauty. Loving the repeat stamping with a shadow effect too.
