Complementary Colours – Use them to Make a Card

Complementary Colours – Use them to Make a Card – Friday Focus – Tulip Dies – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo

I am back with another Friday Focus post. Today we are looking at colour theory again. I am using complementary colours today to make my focal image really pop off the background. These are the wonderful Tulip Dies that you can use to make any number of different flowers. Just play around with the elements to create a flower that you like the look of. There is no wrong way to put these together.

Complementary colours are those opposite each on the colour wheel:

Red & Green
Yellow & Purple
Blue & Orange

Windmill Dies – How to Use them – Stampin’ Up!

Windmill Dies – How to Use them – Stampin’ Up! – Crafting with Ashee – Flowering Tulips – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

I have to say I love seeing windmills as you explore the countryside. I went to Amsterdam back in 2017 for Stampin’ Up! Onstage Live and have tons of photos I want to still scrapbook. I think this windmill will make a cute embellishment on a page.

We actually have a windmill here in North Lincoln that dates back to 1798. I love driving by it and want to visit it next time it is open to the public. Another great photo for a scrapbook page.

How to Use the Flowering Tulips Stamp Set

How to Use the Flowering Tulips Stamp Set – Tulip Dies – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

As I have said ad infinitum my favourite flowers are tulips. I love them. This bunch of tulips makes me so happy. I’ve made it into a mother’s day card as mother’s day is on 27th March here in the UK. The Flowering of Tulips stamp set is a two-step stamp set. I used the stamparatus to stamp it and made the stamping so easy.

Tulips are definitely my favourite flower. I look forward to them every year. They variety of colours and shapes are amazing. Even when the flower goes over they look gorgeous, just like orchids. I have so many photos of them so I thought it was high time I made another card using them.

Make a Get Well Soon Card – Purple Tulips

Make a Get Well Soon Card – Purple Tulips – Timeless Tulips – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

As you may know, tulips are my favourite flower. I love all the colours and various forms, even when they are going over and the petals open out, they look gorgeous. This stamp set is Timeless Tulips. It has a matching punch making it super easy to use. I have stamped some images flat and then stamped punched out others to give the card added interest and dimension.

I am really looking forward to the flower this Spring. The crocuses and some daffodils are just starting to flower and it really makes my heart sing. It gives me hope that in all this darkness of winter there is light.

Timeless Tulips – Spotlighting – Stampin’ Up!

As followers of my blog will know, my favourite flowers are Tulips. I simply adore them. When I saw this the Timeless Tulips stamp set and matching punch I knew I had to have them.

I’ve kept the colours very simple with just red and white. I love the contrast between real red and whisper white. I spotlighted the actual tulip flower in red with a black stem to highlight this.

Tulips do signify the start of Spring and warm weather to me. They are beautiful blooms even when they are dying and the petals fall open like orchids.

I felt the white background was a little bland and so I ran it the through the Basket Weave embossing folder to give it some subtle texture. I’ve not been using my embossing folder for ages so I decided I must start using them more as well.

Tulips in Autumn – Greetings Card Tutorial

I have this simple and clean card to share with you. It features my favourite flowers, Tulips, which I love. I have therefore named it Tulips in Autumn. This stamp is from the “Winds of Change” stamp set which I have already used.

I was at the garden centre for lunch recently and the array of Tulips bulbs is mind-blowing. They come in such a fantastic range of colours, shapes and textures. Once upon a single tulip bulb sold for than craftsman’s annual salary. I love looking at all the tulips in Autumn and dreaming of their beauty in the Spring.

This card is much cheaper to make than that. I’ve stamped the tulip in memento black in and coloured it in with the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. The cotton real red ribbon just gives added interest to the background.

measurements

I love the combination of red and green. I don’t feel it just a Christmas colour. They are opposite sides of the colour wheel and therefore are complimentary colours.

I love floral cards and my favourite, of course, are Tulips. What are your favourite images on cards? Let me know in the comments section. I love reading your comments.
