ICS May Blog Hop 2023-2025 In Colors

Welcome to the ICS May Blog Hop as we showcase the new 2023-2025 In Colors. Our wonderful Design Team members will be sharing their projects and ideas featuring these beautiful colors, using products from the new 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.

The new 2023-2025 Colors are simply amazing and I am having so much fun playing with these colors and experimenting with different color combinations. For today's card design, I chose to use two of the new In Colors - Moody Mauve and Pebbled Path and paired it with Bubble Bath to add a pop of contrast to the design. For this card design, I was inspired by a sample in the new 2023-2024 Annual Catalog on page 41, using the Wonderful Thoughts Bundle. This bundle is a hidden gem in the new catalog and it is full of wonderful sentiments and coordinating dies that provide so many great options for creating projects.

For my card design, I chose to use Pebbled Path for my card base and I love the way the Moody Mauve card front pops against this wonderful neutral color. I decided to add some texture to the card front using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder and I gently sponged some Moody Mauve Classic ink over the raised embossing using a Blending Brush, to help highlight the texture. I arranged the 5 Pebbled Path labels die cut with the Wonderful Thoughts Dies, spacing them evenly on the card front. I heat embossed the sentiment with White embossing powder on the right side of the bottom label and then attached each of the labels to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. To create the floral design on the left side of the card front, I attached the Moody Mauve floral die cut first towards the top and then added the Bubble Bath floral die cut so that it slightly overlapped the bottom of the top floral. I colored both of the die cuts with Clear Wink of Stella to add some shimmer and sparkle and completed the card design with several Moody Mauve In Color Dots. I really love this beautiful color combination and the simplicity of this card design.
