Colour Creations Stampin’ Up! Cajun Craze

This week on the Colour Creations Blog Hop, we are featuring Cajun Craze.
I have mostly used Cajun Craze as a fantastic colour for masculine cards, so today I am doing something a little different with it.
I have used the Colorful Kaleidoscope Kit, and paired some of the kit elements with some Cajun Craze. I think it really helps the colours in the kit to pop.
The Colorful Kaleidoscope Kit contains some gorgeous die cut layers, and I have used one of these on the reverse side, as a mask, which I have sponged through to create a subtle tone on tone background in Cajun Craze for both my cards.
For the first card, I have then used the die cut mask on the front of my card.
Behind the die cut panel is some white cardstock which has been sponged in Cajun Craze, Calypso Coral and Petal Pink to create an ombre effect.

The second card uses some of the beautiful, colourful inside of one of the envelopes included in the kit.

The sentiment on both cards are from the stamp set included in the Colorful Kaleidoscope kit.

Heart of Christmas 2023

Welcome to the very first Heart of Christmas blog hop for 2023.
My project for you today is a Christmas Card, and alternative project using the Stampin’ Up! Colorful Kaleidoscope Kit.

I have taken one of the die cut pieces from the kit and layered it over some of the Gold Celebrations Specialty Designer Series Paper, then adhered it with dimensionals to the white cardbase.
The Christmas sentiment comes from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set, and has been heat embossed on some Gold Foil Sheet before die cutting with the banner from the Gorgeously Made Dies.
It really is quite a simple card to make and the gold and white combination is favourite of mine for Christmas.

Next along on our Christmas Blog Hop is the lovely and very talented Christine Blain, make sure you hop over to her blog for more inspiration and ideas.
