Colour Creations: Blackberry Bliss

 Hi!


Thanks for stopping by for the new Colour Creations Blog Hop. This week it's all about Blackberry Bliss, which is a dark, rich purple from the Regals colour family.


Brian King has once again been the source of a fun colour combo featuring Blackberry Bliss. I would never have thought to combine these colours, but after playing, I think they are great together.

Woo Hoo! My Amazing Phrasing Sale-A-Bration stamp set arrived, so I was able to have another play with the shadow technique. I think I was right last week - the wider font in this set makes it a fantastic choice for this technique. The Triple Layer card makes the centre sentiment stand out from the rest.

I stamped first in Blackberry Bliss, and then the shadow in Pool Party, as it's easier to line up the shadow if you stamp the darker colour first. The downside is that the stamp picks up the BB ink, so I had to keep cleaning my stamp after each use so that I didn't end up with a mucky Pool Party ink pad. The stars are from Days To Remember, and are stamped in Daffodil Delight.

I used the offcuts from the front to decorate the inside. I think I'm going to have a lot of fun with this stamp set!
