Week 21 Colour Creations Blog-Hop - Fresh Freesia

 

Hello and welcome to week 21 of the Colour Creations Blog-Hop. This week our feature colour is Fresh Freesia. This colour is part of the 2021-2023 In Color Range. It's a very pretty Lilac and so easy to work with. 

This week I have chosen to make a fancy fold card that until last week I had never heard of, It's called a 3rd Fold Card. 

 A really different design than I have every seen before. But I thought I would give this one a go. So I started with a Garden Green card base and added my layers in Fresh Freesia and them my DSP layer Tea Boutique. Adding a topper using the Cup of Tea Bundle.

 

As you can see the card looks like a gate fold but that's the thing it's only a half gate fold. The insert I layered with just a Basic White stamping in Garden Green and Fresh Freesia. I also added the same layers to the Right-hand bottom corner so that when the card is closed it looks symmetrical. I thought this looked better.

There is plenty of room to write your message even with the extra panel added to the right-hand side. This is a 5 1/2 inch (14cm) Square card and I really love the way it turned out. 

All the items used in this project can be found in the 2022-2023 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue. If you would like to know more about this card or the products used, please feel free to contact me Via email, PM or Phone.

Week 3 Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2022-2023 Starry Sky

 

 Hello Everyone, and welcome to another year of the Colour Creations Blog-Hop.

 

This week we have Starry Sky, it's a beautiful Dark Blue Sky colour and I just think it's so nice. I have chosen to make a fancy fold card called "Drop Flap Easel Card". I started my card with a Starry Sky card base and added a Blushing Bride layer followed by the New Incolor DSP in Starry Sky. I cut the front angle of my card using the Basic Border Dies, I did this on all the layers. I used the off cuts to layer together and form my stopper. I then punch out the Oval from the Double Oval punch and made it into a saucer for my cup. The cups come from the Cup of Tea Bundle. I stacked them up and added the leaves to the top cup. Placing little tea bag tags hanging over the cups and one on the stopped. The butterflies are from the Butterfly Brilliance set.

For my insert I stamped the same leaves along the bottom and just a sentiment, keeping it simple. I'm really loving this card design and have also made a few others not using the incolors.

All the items used in this project are current and in the New Annual Catalogue that went live on the 3rd April 2022. If you would like to know more about these product or the New Annual Catalogue please feel free to give me a Call, email or PM so that I might help you.

Week 2 Colour Creations Blog-Hop 2022-23 Parakeet Party

 

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to week 2 of the 2022-23 Blog-Hop. This week our 2nd Incolor is Called Parakeet Party. This is a really lovely bright green. Beings that green is my favourite colour I really didn't have any problems working with it.

 I decided I would make another fancy fold card this one I am calling "Hidden Gift Card Holder Card" What a mouthful ah! 

 

This time I started my card with a Garden Green card base and added the Parakeet Party as my layer along with the beautiful Tea Boutique DSP. I also used the Cup of Tea bundle and the Color & Contour Bundle for this project. Stamping my flower in Parakeet Party, all the other stamping was done in Garden Green. I finished off the front with the beautiful new gems called Glossy Dots Assorted. My front flap was cut from the dies in the color & Contour set. 

 As you can see there is a hidden pocket inside the card for you to place a gift card. This design is so versatile that I think it could be used for all occasions. I really loving the new Incolors, I hope you will give them a try out. If you would like to know more about the Stampin' Up! Colour range or product please feel free to give me a call, email or PM so that I can help you with your purchase.
