Stampin Up Cheerful Daisies Birthday Card with Wild Wheat.

Hello friends. Today I have a handmade birthday card for you, featuring Stampin' Up! Cheerful Daisies bundle, Fresh as a Daisy DSP, and one of the new 2023 InColors. Wild Wheat. I really love how it turned out. The textured daisy dies and the foliage really add some dimension to my card.

I took my colour inspiration from the colours in this piece of DSP which are Pretty Peacock and Wild Wheat. I really love the rich mustard yellow of Wild Wheat and I think the brightness of the white daisies is a good contrast. I used a sponge dauber to add a little bit of Wild Wheat colour to the centre daisies. I popped some of the daisies and the sentiment label up with Dimensional foam dots.

This sentiment is included in the Cheerful daisies bundle, and the label die in the die set, so they combined for the perfect greeting for my birthday card. The scalloped border at the top of my card is from the Scalloped Contours Dies. I added a thin strip of Wild Wheat cardstock underneath the sentiment label to balance the colours on the card.

Here's a closer look at the Cheerful Daisies stamp set and coordinating Cheerful Daisies dies.

Here's a look at the Fresh as a Daisy DSP. Did you know this paper pack coordinates with all 5 of the new InColors?

Stampin Up Fresh as a Daisy Quick and Easy Cards InColor Cards

Did you know the Stampin' Up! Fresh as a Daisy DSP coordinates with all five of the new InColors? I made these 5 quick and easy hand made cards to show the coordination. From left to right I have used the following new InColors for the base card and the mat on the sentiment label: Pebbled Path, Boho Blue, Wild Wheat, Copper Clay and Moody Mauve.

For each card I used a contrasting colour as a mat to the patterned paper and followed that colour through on the paper strip under the label and the ink colour for the sentiment. In this example below I have used Copper Clay. I coordinated the jute bows with the base cardstock colour. For the Jute bow I have used just one of the strands of the twine (there are 3 strands so I just twisted and divided them).

The InColor jute twine is fabulous value actually. You get 4.6m of each colour in the one pack, and if you divide the strands it will go even further. Here's just one of the five colours you get in the pack (Boho Blue) so you can see what it looks like before it's unravelled to one thread.

For these two examples I have used Copper Clay with Pretty Peacock for the left hand side card, and Moody Mauve with Wild Wheat for the one on the right.

For the sentiments, I used the Something Fancy stamp set with the coordinating dies. The dies have these two graduating sized labels which I have stacked on top of each other using Dimensionals. Here's a look at the Something Fancy Stamp Set and the coordinating Something Fancy Dies. 

I hope this has given you an idea for making a quick and easy set of coordinating cards.

Introducing NEW Stampin' Up! 2022 InColor Starry Sky with the new Bottled Happiness stamp set

Hello friends, it's time to explore the last of our new 2022 InColors, which are now just a week away with the launch of the 2022 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue on May 3rd.

Today's final colour is Starry Sky, a lovely mid to deep blue with a purple undertone. Here's how it looks with some of the other Stampin' Up! current colours. 

For my card today, I have used one of the Tea Boutique note cards (these come in each of the 5 new InColors) together with the new Bottled Happiness stamp set. Both of these products are available in the new Annual Catalogue commencing on May 3rd.

I really love how this colour combination of Starry Sky, Sweet Sorbet, Old Olive and Basic White came together.

The Bottled Happiness stamp set is fun to stamp with! The flower and leaf sections come as two separate photopolymer stamps, so they are easy to line up. The bottle is also in two parts. For the solid piece, I stamped off once with the Starry Sky ink, and for the outline section I stamped at full strength. I also added some clear Wink of Stella to the bottle to give it a bit of shimmer. There is also a coordinating bottle punch for this stamp set (and there is a 10% discount if you bundle them together).

The polka dot Sweet Sorbet paper that is tucked under the left side of the card comes from the 2022-2024 InColor DSP pack that will be available next week. The sentiment is from the Bottled Happiness stamp set and is stamped in Starry Sky. It's cut out with a really versatile new die set called Stylish Shapes.

I hope you like today's card and the new Starry Sky InColor! I'm looking forward to playing with this one some more. 

You will be able to purchase these products from me from next Tuesday, January 3rd, You can either order direct with me via email, phone or text (you can read about three ways to shop with me HERE).  When you shop online with me in Australia, and use the monthly Host Code, you also qualify for a small thank you gift mid the month after your purchase.

Introducing NEW Stampin' Up! 2022 InColor Parakeet Party

Hello friends. Today we are looking at another new InColor, Parakeet Party. This one is a bright yellow green which is fun to play with!

Here's how it looks with some of the other current Stampin' Up! colours. 

I have made a bright and happy 'Just for You' card to showcase this colour. I have used the current Brilliant Wings Dies (also in a bundle with Butterfly Brilliance stamp set) to create the layered butterflies. I really like the softness of Soft Sea Foam with Parakeet Party.

The Designer Series Paper I have used is Tea Boutique, a 6x6" pack which will be available on May 3rd. I have also used some of the 2022-24 InColor Assortment DSP (this one is Orchid Oasis) under my sentiment label. My sentiment is from the current set Celebrating You (in the 2022 January to June Mini Catalogue and carrying over to the new catalogue).

Another 'coming soon' product I have used is the 2022-2024 InColor Matte Decorative Dots. I will be using these a lot. You can also see I have used the Stylish Shapes Dies (also coming on May 3rd) again. Love these banner shapes which are quick and easy to cut using the Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine.

 

Here's a look at my colour combination for this card.

I had a Soft Sea Foam butterfly left over, so I made another quick note card using another sheet of the Tea Boutique DSP. I love the simple monochromatic look of this card. I think I will use it as a simple 'hello' note card, and I didn't feel it needed a sentiment.

If you love the new papers and/or new InColors, there's still time to register for either my 2022 InColor Club (where you get the new InColors one color a month for 5 months - registration open until May 8th), or the Annual Catalogue Product Shares (I have ribbon, DSP or Speciality Paper shares available and the signup closes May 2nd).
