This or That Thursday Simply Zinnia

 Let me introduce you to a new core colour from Stampin' Up! Called Basic Beige it's a new addition to the neutrals colour family.  It's a great addition that will work so well with so many colour palettes. It comes in ink, cardstock, reinker and ribbon.

So with this neutral in mind I wondered how it would work with the pretty floral Simply Zinnia stamp set. Well I chose other shades of beige/light brown for the colour palette and am very happy with the final result!

I stamped the large flower head randomly across a piece of basic white cardstock in the basic Beige,  crumb cake and pecan pie ink. I then went around the edges of the card and blended first the Beige then on the very edge crumb cake with blending brushes. I stamped the sentiment on white in pecan pien the darkest shade, and blended the dies as with the stamped piece. A few pearl gems and it was complete.
As it's This or That Thursday there had to be another card to chose from so using the same designe I have created a version using one of the new 2024-2026 In-Color's called Peach Pie. I used 2 other peachy /orange colours to work with it to complete the card.

For the inside of each card I stamped and blended around the white mat .
