Blueberry Bushel-In color week

  Love this bright blue.  I guess I am a brights person.  All though to be truthful there are very few, if any, Stampin'Up! colors that I do not like and do not use.  

Are you curious where this flower came from?  It is from one of the hostess sets that are only available when you are the hostess.  The set is called Artfully Folded and features origami cranes and swans.  The flowers are an additional feature to the stamp set and seemed perfect for the card for today.

Did you know that you can use the ink that you stamped the image with to color the image?  I took a blender pen and touched the edge of the flowers and spread the ink out to add color to the inside of the flower.  You need to do this right after stamping before the ink totally dries.

I used one of the Petal Pair embossing folders to create a background on the card.

What a fun week this has been!  It helped me get used to the new in-colors.  Next week I will be featuring the Nature's Poem Suite and will start off with Make is Simple Monday.

Come back to see some more great cards using new products.  Don't forget...

Call Me Clover-In color week


 I am thinking this bright green will be great on Christmas cards.  One of the things I enjoy doing is using stamps to create a background on a card.  

I featured the Rooted in Nature stamp set for this card.  I was glad to see Lovely as a Tree still in our catalog.  Since I have been with Stampin'Up! for 15 years, I was around when it first came out.  Back then the only choice was wood mount stamps and we had to cut out our stamps before we could mount them.  Because of that I can see what year Lovely as a Tree came out.  Do you want to guess? 2001.  At that time the stickers you placed on the stamps let you know what year they came out.

When I saw Rooted in Nature I fell in love because to me the stamps look almost like photos and have more options that Lovely as a Tree does not have. And there are several framelits that will cut out the stamped images.  So, I see a place for both in my stamping.




I used 2 other new items on this card.
  -Detailed trio punch for the bottom corners of the card
  -Polka Dot tulle ribbon. This can be colored with markers, reinkers, blends but I decided to leave mine white as a contrast to the Clover.

Tomorrow I will feature the last in-color for the next two years, Blueberry Bushel.

Pineapple Punch In-color week



  Isn't this a wonderful bright color?  Pineapple Punch. 

 One of the things I like to check out with a new catalog are the suites.  There are 14 suites in the 2018-2019 catalog.  They are listed on page 2 of the catalog. Each item that is a part of the suite coordinates and adds to the stamp that is featured.  I used a couple items on this card from the Share What You Love suite found on pages 176-178. 

 Last week on my blog I featured a lot of the items contained in the suite.  Check it out here.



I think the embossing folder which is called Lovely Floral is my favorite item in the suite.  Doesn't it make a wonderful background for this card?

Tomorrow's card will be made using Call Me Clover, my favorite in-color this year.  I have realized I really gravitate towards the greens.

Grapefruit Grove- In-color week

  Grapefruit Grove is today's new in-color.  Wouldn't it be fun to be one of the people to name the new colors. I often wonder what the guidelines are to help determine the name.

Have you seen the new Delightfully Detailed laser cut specialty paper.  It is lovely.

One sheet is 12 by 12 with a variety of flowers and leaves that are lightly connected.  It was very easy to snip an area to place on the card for today.

This is one of the 5 cards you will be able to make in my in-color card class.

Would you like to be able to receive my email announcing all my classes?  Just fill out the form on the right hand side of this page and your email will automatically be placed on my email list.

Tomorrow I will feature a card made using Pineapple punch, a bright yellow.

Lovely Lipstick-In-Color Week

 Have you seen the new in-colors?  They are bright and bold and lovely shades.  Since I am a ROYGBIV girl I will be featuring them in color order. In case you are not familiar with ROYGBIV it is a way to remember the colors of the rainbow. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.

 In addition to featuring each color this week, I will be sharing some of the new stamp sets I have purchased.  The set today is called Vivid Vases and includes a matching punch.  It was designed by Mary Fish one of the 24 Million Dollar lifetime winners.  Each person with a million dollars in lifetime sales, visits the home office and gets to help design a stamp set.  Doesn't that sound like fun.

Tomorrow I will be featuring a card made with Grapefruit Grove.  Try and guess what the featured stamp set might be.
