Perennial Essence Inky Friends Suite Designs Blog Hop


We're hopping through some favorite Suites in the 2019-2020 catalog.  If you're hopping in order, you've just seen Shelley's cutie pie creations with the DinoRoar Suite.

I used the Perennial Essence Stamp Set, Punch and Designer Series Paper.  The paper is so like impressionist paintings, and the colors are lovely.  I enjoy sets with matching punches that allow quick cards and flowers, so this Suite is such a joy.


I went really simple with this card's stamping. I didn't stamp the flower. I punched it from vellum in Petal Pink and Old Olive (But used the back side so that it would match the Soft Sea Foam layer nicely) and curled it, which to me, makes it look most like a water lily.  The sentiment was cut using a die from the Parcels and Petals Bundle.

The card fold is a horizontal gatefold (scored at 2-3/4 on each side of the 11 inch long piece of cardstock) turned vertically with a layer on top attached to only one side. Easy to construct, but sweetly different.  The sentiments came from the Here's a Card set.

Seaside Spray Inky Friends New In Colors Hop Parcels and Petals Beautiful Friendship


I hope you'll enjoy our hop through the new In Colors!  They are such pretty colors this year!

Welcome, if you've arrived from Cindy's Heart's Delight blog where she used Pretty Peacock. Don't you love the Noble Peacock Foil Sheets? It is such a rich color, and her projects really make it shine.

I chose to highlight Seaside Spray for the In Colors Hop.  It is a light purple-y blue that is very easy to use.

I created this Parcels and Petals card as almost a monochrome to show off Seaside Spray with just Crumb Cake and Soft Seafoam added. The In Color scalloped edged ribbon is so eye catching I think-If the Crumb Cake part doesn't work on a card, you can even cut the edges and use just the Seaside Spray Scallop. 


Product List
Seaside Spray is one of many colors in this Beautiful Friendship card.  It blends nicely with most pastels as you can see. Black was used as a highlight, and I intentionally used the larger center of the ranunculus as a yellow yarrow instead for a bit more interest.  (Just for information, here is a picture of a ranunculus bouquet I like and some yellow yarrow.  :D )

The sentiment is stamped in versamark and heat embossed with black embossing powder. To match the shine of the embossing and the Black Satin ribbon, I used Wink of Stella glitter brush on the Tuxedo Black Memento Ink flower centers.


Product List
Now it is time to hop along to Sara's Lily's Ink Pad blog and see her Purple Posy pretties! I love the way she used the blends to color the butterfly!
