Creative & Company Team Showcase - Ellen Sweat

 I am so excited to introduce Ellen Sweat @emsweat as my Creative & Company Team Showcase Stamper. She wanted to work with the Earthen Textures Bundle, which includes the stamps set & coordinating Earthen Texture Dies.  


I love the cards she created and am excited to share them with you here. 


Here is her first card. She says that this card is based upon a sketch she made of an interior wall scene. "My vision was wallpaper, chair rail, and framed artwork with the pottery/floral centerpiece."⁠

I love the dark moody colors in this suite of products by Stampin' Up! Ellen mixes and matches the textures from the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper with the beautiful images from the stamp set. 


I love the close up images so you can see all the details including the Natural Wavy Trim wrapped around the vase. Such a fun way to use this product.⁠⁠



This is the second card she created with this bundle. The textures on this card are beautiful. I love how she used Copper Clay ink with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder to create a background with lots of texture for the pottery and floral centerpiece. 


Take a close look at the pottery and floral pieces. I love the stamped texture on the pottery. Such a great detail. She also used the coordinating Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper for extra texture and colors. 




This card has beautiful details. Thank you for the inspiration and great ideas.


For her next card Ellen imagined an outdoor patio scene with a desert background for her inspiration. I love how she mixed and matched different patterns from the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Papers with the different sizes of pottery and vases from the coordinating Earthen Textures Dies. 



Her blending with the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks creates the perfect backdrop for this outdoor scene.





This next card has been created around Ellen's favorite New In Color - Moody Mauve. I love all the different ways she has used the color in this card. 



I love how she has also added a little touch of green to the foliage image. By adding a contrasting color it really helps the Moody Mauve pop. 





She also wanted to create a fun gift tag. One of my favorite things on this tag is the background texture. This pattern comes from the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper Pack. I love how it looks like leather. It is the perfect backdrop to the dark foliage and pottery.
 


This tag definitely gives me all the autumn / fall feels. Great Job Ellen!




Thanks so much Ellen for these beautiful cards you made. They give us great inspiration for new ways to use the Earthen Textures Bundle. You are awesome!


Here are some of the products Ellen used to create her cards. (this is not a full supply list)



Have a creative day,
Chelsey
