Hues of Blues

Does winter have you singing the blues? Take control of those blues, and capture them in a stunning layout or card! This month's card swap featured a panel of cards designed in hues of blues (and I think you'll find the results inspiring). From azure to indigo, from navy to sky, we packaged up blues in many unexpected ways! Check out the fabulous results of our 'Hues of Blues' card challenge below....enjoy!

Jodi's Card:

I love the saturated color of the cardstock Jodi chose. The white flowers (from the Prima bucket blooms) form a stark contrast with their very deeply colored background. Lots of texture in this fresh, pretty card.

Patti's Card:

Patti featured a light blue shooting star on her card. The cool of the blue is accented with a silver medallion cut from Webster's Pages 'Shimmer' cardstock. The square shape and center cut opening combine with the sparkle of the star to form a dazzling card - very classy.

Lisa K's Card:

Lisa K's card cleverly features a pull out tag - a fun design element. She accents her blues with neutral browns, including a die cut, embossed and sanded stop watch. The card reads 'Time to Tell You' on the outside and 'Thank You, Thank You, Thank You....' on the inside. What a fun card!

Linda R's Card:

Linda R captures the violet hues in blue with this pretty design. A simple silver ribbon placed behind three flowers adds a touch of sparkle, and I really like the way that Linda double stamped 'thank you' on the front. Very calming!




Jessica's Card:

Jessica designed her card inside and out using a die-cut shape that looks hand stitched. Jessica proves that different shades of blue can work together, featuring a teal backdrop on a denim colored card. The green stem and blue and pink flower tie it all together for a beautiful result.





Greta's Card:


Greta features a dreamy blue background, cool silver letters, and pop-up/die-cut flowers for a bright and cheery result. The card and envelope are glossy giving this card a very polished feel. Nice job Greta.





Andrea's Card:

Andrea combined warm neutrals and dusty blues to create this timeless card. The word 'Thanks' is embossed on a blue background, and the red flower in the left corner is actually die cut out of blue with a red background to mimic the red floral design in the center strip. These two design features, along with hand knotted centers for the little flowers on the center strip add lots of wonderful texture to the card. Nicely done!






Linda M's Card:

What do you think of when you think of blue - the ocean, water, glass? This card captures the sheerness of blue with a cute little bouquet of blue colored flowers in what looks like a little glass bowl. The bright blue in the background strip, as well as the floral design is mirrored a hand cut tag. Very cute.




Selestina's Card:



Selestina's Card features an adorable flower cut out of the front of the card to reveal a little blue flower peeking out from the inside. The blue and green combination is soft and breezy like a summer afternoon. Very cute card Selestina - way to chase away the winter blues!




Stacy's Card:

Stacy's card features a patchwork background using paper from the 'Blooming' collection by Studio 8. A lazy daisy and stitched grosgrain ribbon complete the look and feel of this charming little card.




Krissi's Card:

Bold and elegant, Krissi's card is classy and classic. This monotone design could be mimicked in any number of color combinations for a lovely wedding invitation, graduation announcement, or in this case, thank you card! Nicely done Krissi.

My Card:

A sprig of spring blossoms cut from blue transparency awaits the recipient of this card. Each flower was accented with a white brad atop a silver sequin. The inside reads 'So Grateful'. I wanted to create a calming, natural feel with this simple design.

That does it for this month's card swap. I was really pleased with the results this month - it was fun seeing all the cool blues. Be sure to check in next month when our card swap ladies feature 'Irish Blessings' on their cards!
