Ink. Stamp. Share. September Monthly Blog Hop Colour Challenge

Welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share. September Monthly Blog Hop and this month we have a color challenge to inspire us. You will be visiting with talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their amazing projects and ideas.

Our color challenge this month is to create a project using at least three of the challenge colors: Pretty Peacock, Just Jade, Gorgeous Grape, Merry Merlot and Melon Mambo.

I love how bright and cheerful this color combination is, so I decided to create a celebration card using the Pattern Play stamp set from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog. I was able to combine all 5 of the colors into this fun design and this card could work for a birthday or to celebrate a special event in someone's life. The circle die cut was created using one of the circle dies from the Stitched Shapes Dies that are also in the Annual Catalog.

Supplies Used:

Pattern Play stamp set (item #152523)

Stitched Shapes Dies (item #152323)

Pretty Peacock cardstock (item #150880)

Just Jade cardstock (item #153079)

Whisper White cardstock (item #100730)

Melon Mambo Classic Ink Pad (item #147051)

Merry Merlot Classic Ink Pad (item #147112)

Gorgeous Grape Classic Ink Pad (item #147099)

White Embossing Powder (item #109132)

Basic Rhinestone Jewels (item #144220)

Measurements:

Pretty Peacock cardstock card base - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"

(scored at 4 1/4")

Just Jade cardstock layer - 5 1/4" x 4"

Whisper White cardstock layer - 5" x 3 3/4"

Just Jade cardstock for circle die cut

The images in this stamp set are great for creating a fun background and I combined Merry Merlot, Melon Mambo and Gorgeous Grape Classic inks to create the design. The sentiment was heat embossed with White Embossing Powder to step up the design and I added some Basic Rhinestones for a touch of bling.

SBTD June Blog Hop New Annual Catalog

It's time to hop along with the SBTD June Blog Hop as we showcase products from the New 2020-2021 Annual Catalog. You will be visiting with Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their ideas and projects to help inspire you to explore this wonderful new catalog.

For my card design today, I chose to showcase the Playing With Patterns Suite from the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalog. I love that the Pattern Play Bundle (item #154087) includes the Playful Alphabet Dies which also include numbers and punctuation symbols that provide so many wonderful options. The coordinating Pattern Play stamp set has wonderful background pattern images that are so much fun to play with.

To create this card design, I chose Coastal Cabana cardstock for the card base and added a 5 1/4" x4" layer of Night of Navy cardstock to provide a matte for may focal background design. I stamped a 5" x 3 3/4" layer of Whisper White cardstock using the stripes stamp image, alternating between Coastal Cabana and Night of Navy Classic inks to decorate the full panel.

The circle sentiment was created by using one of the stitched circle dies from the Stitched Shapes Dies to die cut a Night of Navy circle die cut. I die cut the letters H & B using the Playful Alphabet Dies from Coastal Cabana cardstock and attached them to the Night of Navy circle with adhesive. I heat embossed the sentiment for the second label onto Coastal Cabana cardstock using Silver embossing powder and punched it out using the Everyday Label Punch (item #144668).

To decorate the card, I used the Coastal Cabana Ribbon and layered the Night of Navy Ribbon from the Playing With Patterns Ribbon Combo Pack (item #152468) on top, then added them to the card front. I added the Night of Navy circle to the top of the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals and then layered the Coastal Cabana sentiment label over the top of the ribbon with Stampin' Dimensionals. I tied a knot with the two ribbons and added it to the card front on top of the ribbon next to the Coastal Cabana sentiment label using a Mini Glue Dot. To add a little sparkle, I added 3 of the Pretty Peacock sequins from the Woven Threads Sequin Assortment (item #149498) to the top right corner using Mini Glue Dots.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. I hope that my card design helps inspire you to explore the amazing new products in the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalog to create your own beautiful projects. The suites in this catalog make it so simple to create wonderful projects without the stress.
