Creation Station – Outback Outwest Cactus

Welcome to the Creation Station Blog Hop where this month we are going Outback Outwest.

The Creation Station Design Team are bringing you inspiration from Outback Outwest this month.  I can’t wait to see what the others have created and if you’ve hopped over from Jeanna Kay then you’ll have already seen.

I decided to create with the fabulous Flowering Cactus Product Medley for todays share. Having recently created with this Product Medley I wanted to try a blue night sky rather than another sunset. Taking an acetate mask and our Blending Brushes, I added Ink in circular motions. Starting with Coastal Cabana as the base, I added darker shades of blue that I sponged inwards. Leaving a centre lighter, helped draw your eye into the distance. A White Chalk Marker was perfect to add little twinkly stars.

The Stitched Whimsy dies helped to add a wonderful stitched frame to the base of this card that I added the Die cut Cactus to. Stamped in Pear Pizazz, I added Mossy Meadow with a dauber to add variation of colour. I loved how the popping colours chosen for the flowers really sang with the blue of the sky.

Inking and stamping the Cactus with the same colours, I created a not dissimilar panel for this Frame. The tallest of Cacti was cut from Mossy Meadow Cardstock and a very simple sentiment added.

A sweet gift set for a friend that’s clean and cheerful with some popping colours.

I hope you have liked my spin on this theme I look forward to seeing how Denita has interpreted this theme.

Thanks for hopping by, enjoy the rest of the hop.
