In Color Collection

2017-18 In Color Collecti0n

It is always fun to see what the new colors are in fashions, but June 1st is the day that Stampin’ Up!^® introduces their new Fashion Colors too!  Now THAT is Exciting!

Here's a Sneak Peak . . .

On April 22^nd I posted some fun card ideas made with the now retired Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper (DSP).  While we are sad to see the beautiful Night Of Navy version leave, I am excited that Stampin’ Up! has brought back the many of the same patterns featuring the New In Colors in the Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Stack.  There are 40 sheets: 4 each of 2 double sided designs in 5 colors.  Plus now all of the DSP stacks are NOT tear off, but loose pages.  This means there will be no curling that sometimes happened when pulling them off.

I have created five different cards using the New In Colors and DSP Stack.  I realize that blogs don't always show the colors perfectly, but they are close (at least on my computer).

Berry Burst

Powder Pink

Check out the awesome new Pretty Label Punch.

The mat was created by punching 2 shapes out of Gold Foil paper, cutting each in half in opposite directions then adhering to the back (some trimming may be involved to get the desired look).

 Fresh Fig

I used the Whisper White Bakers Twine and colored it Fresh Fig by running it across the ink pad.

Lemon Lime Twist

 Tranquil Tide

Yes, this card is created in landscape.

Birthday Delivery

Birthday Delivery - Sneak Peak!

Because tomorrow (May 28th) is my birthday,

I thought a sneak peak was in order! 

What a cool stamp set! The different images are so fun.  Although they may seem juvenile at first, they are also nostalgic, which makes them great for a wide range of ages.  The fun part is that there is a bundle with the stamps that includes the Birthday Friends Framelits Dies.  I love a bundle, but this one has a bonus!  The dies will cut out the images on the matching Birthday Memories DSP! 

Above is how it is cut out of the DSP

Look how cute the fox is when it is cut out of the DSP and added to the top of the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals!  Adorable!  The banner sentiment is perfectly matched to fit inside the banner in the stamp set or the DSP as shown here.  The cute little presents stamped in Sahara Sand are just the right touch for this card. Below that is the back side of the same piece of DSP topped with a piece of Pacific Point card stock stamped with another of the fun sentiments from the set (also in Pacific Point).  I think this card is soooo cute and I can brag about it because it wasn’t created by me. It was a Make & Take by Stampin’ Up! from the OnStage event I attended this last April (yes, it’s hard to keep things quite this long!!). 

I wanted to show you more of the darling DSP with this little cutie.  You will notice that the little girl is facing forward in the DSP, as shown on the card, however, the stamp set image is from the back.  The Framelits will cut her out in both directions should you want to cut out both and have the front and back as part of your project.  The Pacific Point accents with the Powder Pink card base makes his a great card for little girl, or your older (oops!) big sister!

National Scrapbook Day

National Scrapbook Day

As you may have seen during my Facebook live post this week, I am working to ensure that there is always a blog post on Saturday, with future plans to add Monday posts that are strictly scrapbook ideas.  Although we are still in flux with caring for my Mother-in-law, that is the plan…just a TBD plan at this point.  That being said, today’s post has to include a scrapbook page because, after all, it is National Scrapbook day!

I wanted to show the idea of using the little ‘proof-page’ photos that come if you order pictures from Shutterfly and some other services. 

 

This is a quick and simply one-page layout with photos of my daughters wedding day. 

 

Sometimes simple is best.

Order these, and many other products, via my website www.kariebeglau.stampinup.net  Today!

Until Next time . . .
