Free Shipping Days at Colorado Craft Company (+GIVEAWAY!)

5 May

Good morning!  Just popping in with a reminder that today and tomorrow you can get free shipping over at Colorado Craft Company (and don’t forget to comment on my first post HERE for a chance to win a stamp set of your choice from the release)!!  Free shipping within the US and $6.95 off shipping for outside the US!  Today I’m sharing more inspiration using the new Kris Lauren release!

Berry Much Slimline by Jessica Frost-Ballas for Colorado Craft Company

For today’s card I kinda wanted to use the opposite color palette from my first card!  I started by stamping the Berry Much Slimline image with versamark and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder.  I colored them with copic markers and then die-cut them with the coordinating dies.  I wanted to try and color the berries as realistically as possible without needing to add white gel pen accents at the end and I was pleasantly surprised at how they turned out!

  • Blueberries – B41, B45, B97, B99
  • Greenery – YG03, YG67, G28

Next I blended Dried Marigold and Scattered Straw distress oxide ink onto a panel of pale yellow cardstock.  I stamped my sentiment onto the panel with versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder.  Then I adhered the berries and finished the card by adding nuvo crystal glaze to the berry centers!
Be sure to check out the full release from Colorado Craft Company and I’d love to know your favorite! Thanks so much for stopping by and have an amazing day!

    Dear Jessica
    Love the color palette and your meticulous coloring. Love the berry berry sentiment. I am writing from Sri Lanka where protests are taking place to oust the government. I also join at all times as the president,PM and ministers hv robbed so much and taken the loot overseas. The price of essentials hv skyrocketed and most people cannot afford to give a little milk to the babies, let alone the adults. There are queues for gas and fuel and we hv daily power cuts too. Our country has gone below banktrupcy. This is the situation in Sri Lanka.Tc stay safe
