Stamping With Friends April Blog Hop Retiring Products

Welcome to the Stamping With Friends April Blog Hop as we say goodbye to our favorite retiring products from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog and January-April 2023 Mini Catalog. Our wonderful Design Team members will be sharing their projects and ideas with you as we say goodbye to our favorite retiring products. These retiring products are available only while supplies last, so if you see something that you like, make sure to order it soon to avoid missing out.
My card design today features retiring products from both the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog and the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog. I love being able to mix and match different products to create unique card designs. The Fancy Flora 6"x6" Designer Series Paper has beautiful color combinations and fun patterns that work well with the more modern feel of the Hello Beautiful stamp set and coordinating Beautiful Shapes Dies. I love the feel of this stepped up clean and simple design and I will be sad to see these products retire. 
Products Used:

Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper
Card Front - 4" x 5 1/4"
Basic White Cardstock
Large Hexagon die cut with the Beautiful Shapes Dies
This card design is simple to create and is easy to assemble. To create the focal image, I stamped the large background image from the Hello Beautiful stamp set using Fresh Freesia Classic ink, onto the large Basic White hexagon. I then heat embossed the sentiment with Silver embossing powder on top of the stamped background. For the card front layer, I die cut the window with the medium size hexagon die towards the right side of the designer series paper. Using both the large and medium hexagon dies, I created a frame for the window using Orchid Oasis cardstock and then I attached the frame around the window. To assemble the card, I lined up the sentiment label with the window and attached it to the card base. I then attached the card front layer to the card base with Stampin' Dimensionals, making sure that the sentiment is inside the window frame. To complete the card design, I added some 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds for a touch of bling.

Around The World On Wednesday March Blog Hop Color Challenge

Welcome to the Around The World On Wednesday March Blog Hop and this month we have our first Color Challenge for the year. For our Color Challenge this month we will be creating with at least 3 of the colors that our Design Team members chose as their favorite colors. The colors are: Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Pool Party, Mint Macaron, Soft Sea Foam, Pale Papaya, Petal Pink, Rich Razzleberry and Starry Sky. Our Design Team members will be sharing their projects and ideas to help inspire you to explore using these beautiful colors in your creative projects. 
For this Color Challenge, I chose to create a geometric design for my card using 7 of the 9 colors - Starry Sky, Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Soft Sea Foam, Petal Pink and Pale Papaya. I die cut hexagons from 6 of the colors using the Beautiful Shapes to create a random background design. I love how these colors work together to create a mosaic design and I added Gold accents to step up the card. 
Products Used:
Hello Beautiful stamp set (item #158041)
Beautiful Shapes Dies (item #158046)
Gold & Rose Gold 6"x6" Metallic Specialty Paper (item #156844)
Starry Sky Cardstock (item #159263)

Stampin' Dimensionals
Measurements:
Starry Sky Cardstock
Card Base - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" (Scored at 4 1/4")
Basic White Cardstock
Card Front - 5 1/4" x 4"
Sentiment Label die cut with the Beautiful Shapes Dies
Gold Metallic Specialty Paper
Large Label die cut with the Beautiful Shapes Dies
Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Petal Pink, Pale Papaya, Soft Sea Foam Cardstock
4 Hexagons in each color die cut with the Beautiful Shapes Dies
This fun card design has a modern feel to it with the geometric background. I attached the hexagon die cuts in a random pattern onto the Basic White cardstock card front. The Starry Sky cardstock card base helps make the variety of colors of hexagons really pop. For the sentiment, I stamped the solid background with Starry Sky Classic ink and then heat embossed the sentiment with Gold embossing powder in the center. Using the smaller label die cut, I die cut out the sentiment and then I sponged the edges with Starry Sky Classic ink using a Blending Brush. I attached the sentiment label to the center of the larger background label that I die cut from Gold Metallic Specialty Paper and then attached it to the center of the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. To finish off the card design, I added several Gold sequins for a touch of bling. This was a fun color challenge using these beautiful colors and I love how my finished design turned out. This is not my usual style and I loved having the opportunity to show some love to some of my old favorite products that I haven't used in a while. 
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to experiment with these wonderful colors to create your own beautiful projects. There are so many wonderful possibilities to explore.
