Colour Combo March Blog Hop

Welcome to the Colour Combo March Blog Hop as we are challenged to use Blushing Bride, Melon Mambo and Crushed Curry to create our projects. You will be visiting with Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as we share our ideas to help inspire you to explore this wonderful color combination. 

Today I am sharing a fun birthday card design using the Hoot Hooray stamp set (item #149352) from the Experience Creativity Brochure. I love the simple images in this stamp set and the fact that they include the sentiment in one stamp. 

 To create this card design, I started with a Melon Mambo cardstock card base and added a layer of Crushed Curry cardstock as a matte to the Whisper White cardstock layer. I stamped the Whisper White cardstock with the stars stamp image using Crushed Curry Classic ink and then stamped the splatter design from the Painted Poppies stamp set (item #151599) using second generation stamping with Blushing Bride Classic ink. This means that I stamped off the image once after inking it up onto a scrap piece of paper before stamping it onto the Whisper White cardstock. This gave me a softer, lighter color that added color to the background without overwhelming the design.

The focal design was created by die cutting a tag using one of the dies from the Bonanza Dies (item #151566) from Whisper White cardstock and I stamped the image from the Hoot Hoot Hooray stamp set with Stazon Jet Black ink onto the tag. I colored the image using Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry and Blushing Bride Stampin' Write Markers and then added a touch of shimmer to the images with Clear Wink of Stella. I added a small piece of Whisper White 5/8" Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon (item #146912) to the tag and tied it with a simple knot. I attached the tag to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals to pop it up. 

 To finish off the card design, I colored in some of the stamped stars with Clear Wink of Stella and added a Basic Rhinestones for a touch of bling. This card design would work well for girls of all ages and I really love the way the splatter adds a distressed look to the background.

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to create your own design using this color combination. There are so many possibilities with these beautiful colors.

Colour Combo January Blog Hop

Welcome to the Colour Combo January Blog Hop as we start a New Year with a fun new color combination. This month we have been challenged to create a project using Basic Gray, Pear Pizzazz and Pumpkin Pie. You will be visiting with Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their creations to help inspire you. 

 For this color combination, I chose to use the new Bonanza Buddies Bundle (item #153815) from the Birthday Bonanza Suite in the January-June Mini Catalog. I love the cute animals images in this bundle and thought it would make a fun birthday card.

 To create this card, I started with a Pear Pizzazz cardstock card base and I added a layer of Basic Gray cardstock that I embossed with the new Coastal Weave 3D Embossing Folder (item #151503) from the Tropical Oasis Suite on page 39 of the new catalog. I added a 2" x5" piece of Pumpkin Pie Designer Series Paper from the Regals 6"x6" Designer Series Paper Pack (item #149616) to the right side of the embossed Basic Gray cardstock to add a splash of color.

The focal image was created by stamping the koala image onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock using Basic Gray Classic ink for the body and Memento Tuxedo Black ink for the face details. I die cut the image using the coordinating die and attached it to a Whisper White cardstock circle that I die cut using the Layering Circles Dies (item #141705). I layered this circle onto a scalloped circle die cut from Pear Pizzazz cardstock to frame it. To decorate the card, I added a party hat die cut with a die from the Bonanza Dies (item #151566) and added a White Pompom from the Assorted Pompoms (item #151310). The balloons were die cut from Pear Pizzazz cardstock and Silver Foil and I used Linen Thread to create the strings for the balloons. 

 I created the sentiment label by stamping the sentiment with Pumpkin Pie Classic ink onto Whisper White cardstock and punched it out with the Classic Label Punch and added another label punched from Pear Pizzazz cardstock that I cut in half and layered behind the Whisper White layer. I then attached the sentiment to a Silver Foil label punched out using the Tailored Tag Punch with Stampin' Dimensionals. I added the Silver Foil label to the card front with Snail Adhesive. 

This fun card design could be created in a variety of color combinations to suit the occasion and would work for a variety of ages. 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. I hope that my card design will inspire you to experiment with these colors and see what you projects you can create. If you live in the U.S. and do not already have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, please contact me and I would be happy to help you.
