Welcome back to another Color Hues challenge! Carol is our host and she has chosen the wonderful wintery pairing of Blue and White. Of course you don't have to create a winter design as you will see below in my card.
When I saw the DT samples on the Honeybee site on Black Friday I knew these needed to be mine. I began by die cutting the ginger jars, first in two different patterns of blue designer papers then in both navy and silver cardstocks. I am truly in love with these and blue isn't even "my" color. :-) I mixed and matched the pieces to get coordinating sets of jars which I added to an embossed navy panel trimmed in silver metallic cardstock. The panel was then adhered to a navy card base with a silver heat embossed sentiment strip.
And because I couldn't make just one I created a similar but different card in greens.
Again, I let a paper pack do most of the work. I die cut the ginger jar in a peach patterned paper, assembled it with gold accents, slathered it in Wink of Stella and finally added a generous layer of Glossy Accents over top. The next day I added it to a die cut panel of gorgeous green and peach paper along with a gold embossed sentiment strip. The entire panel was adhered to a dark green card base.
Supplies:
Honeybee Stamps - Ginger Jar die set
Honeybee Stamps - To the Wise One stamp set
Honeybee Stamps - Cottage Countryside paper pad
Spellbinders - Diamond Plaid embossing folder
Emily Moore Designs - Decorative Sentiment Die set (green panel)
Spellbinders - Essential Sentiments die set
Thanks for visiting!

Jules, your ginger jars, with their delicate floral designs, are gorgeous. I can certainly see why you needed to add these to your collection, as they're ever so versatile and pretty in a wide range of colours. Your silver, white and blue version: swoon! Thank you for the amazing inspiration!

Both cards are absolutely BEAUTIFUL Jules, but I am totally smitten with the blue ginger jars!! You had the perfect DSP for them, and with the navy and silver additions, this card turned out FABULOUS! Great way to showcase the color pairing my friend!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteThose blue designer papers couldn't be more perfect for these lovely vases. They look so realistic, and the card is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThose ginger jars are perfect for the blue and white colour challenge. The textured blue background sets them off perfectly. :)
ReplyDeleteThe ginger jars are an amazing find, Jules, and you found the perfect paper to use for this challenge. Love your design with the grouping of three and the touches of silver. The second card is equally as gorgeous. Personally, the jars would put me down a patterned paper rabbit hole because the options seem endless lol! Love both your cards!
