New Colours meets Retiring favourite for the Art with Heart Team May blog hop.

 
Today I'm bringing you another AWHT Blog Hop with some of the awesome ladies in the Art With Heart Stampin’ Up! Team. Today our focus is on our favourite retiring product, but many of us couldn't resist throwing in some new product too!

I have used several of my favourite retiring products on this card.

• The Dictionary background stamp is beautiful for giving a fresh vintage look to your projects. I especially like ink the stamp up and placing the card on top and applying uneven pressure, so that a few areas remain un-inked, or only lightly inked.
• The Window Frame Framelits are another favourite. I love how you can mat the shape with a square piece of cardstock for an interesting effect.
• My favourite retiring stamp set is From My Heart. It's such a beautiful set with some really lovely images which also include greetings.

Of course I had to throw in some of the new products I am loving too! As you can the new In Colour Mint Macaron is a firm favourite already.

I am also totally LOVING the new triple banner punch. It makes creating banner ends so simple, because you can punch 1", 1.5" and 2" banner ends in a flash, using this great new punch. I used it to create the banner ends on the Pink Pirouette DSP and vellum on my card. Add this great punch to your wish list for ordering after June 2nd (It's on page 162, item 138292).

Now it's time to move on to the next bog, my lovely team member Nikki Sadler.

Beautiful card, Claire. Love the colour combo(will definitely add that one to the list),the layout and all the little details. Love it!

I always love your cards Claire and this one is no exception. The pretty colours and great use of the Dictionary background stamp, well I love it. The Triple Banner Stamp is on my next order for sure. Thanks for the inspiration.

Loving that colour combination and your card is gorgeous. Love those banners behind too!

Very pretty and elegant Claire.

Beautiful, Claire. Your vintage style certainly shines through in this gorgeous card. I'll really miss Dictionary and Word Window too. I'm excited about the new Triple Banner Punch as well!

[Kathryn]

I love your vintage style Claire and especially how you've stamped the Dictionary background. Hmmmmm Mint Macaron . . . that's going to be a popular colour!
