Global Stamping Friends June Blog Hop Coloring Inside The Lines

Welcome to the Global Stamping Friends June Blog Hop and this month our theme is "Coloring Inside the Lines". Our Design Team will be sharing their projects and ideas to help inspire you to explore all the wonderful coloring options Stampin' Up! has to offer.

One of my favorite coloring techniques would have to be coloring with Stampin' Blends Markers. I love the way these alcohol markers blend and the beautiful vibrant colors. For this card design, I chose to use the new Spotlight on Nature Bundle, which is one of the bundles on sale this month with an additional 10% discount. I paired it with one of the designs from the Thoughtful Journey 6"x6" Designer Series Paper. I just love the soft, water color background it creates for the card design that combines beautifully with the focal images.

This pretty card design is all about beautiful colors and I chose to use Boho Blue and Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends Markers for the floral image and Pretty In Pink and Petunia Pop Stampin' Blends Markers for the butterfly image. To create the focal image, I used the Spotlight on Nature Dies to die cut the large detailed circle. I fussy cut the butterfly out after coloring it and added it to the circle with Stampin' Dimensionals to pop it up. For the sentiment label, I heat embossed the image with Basic White embossing powder and die cut the sentiment with the Stylish Shapes Dies. To add a touch of bling, I added several of the Misty Moonlight Gems and I piece of the Silver & White Sheer Ribbon behind the sentiment label. I love how the colors work together to create a beautiful thank you card.
