2018-2020 In Colors

Today I wanted to send out a reminder about the retiring In Colors.  When the new catalog goes live in June we will have a new set of 2020-2022 in colors.  So...that means the 2018-2020 colors will be gone.  If you don't have them yet, now is a good time to get them.  Don't wait until the retired list comes out.  They go like hot cakes!

I decided to take the new Ornate Garden DSP and the 2018-2020 In Colors and make the same card with all five colors.

I used a piece of the gold flowered foil from the new Ornate Garden DSP and  sponged (blending brushes) the background using the Ombre effect.  I used my favorite blending brushes, but you could use the Stamping Sponges or the Sponge Brayers.

This is Blueberry Bushel, and the only one I did not layer with a piece of Basic Black.  I used the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, and the new Gilded Gems.  The phrase is from the Rooted in Nature set.

This is the Lovely Lipstick.  I also embossed the strip of Gold foil with the Subtly Embossing folder.

I didn't emboss the die cut piece behind the phrase layer, but you certainly could.

You could do this Ombre effect with so many different stamp sets or DSP papers.

What color is your favorite?

Rooted in Nature Poinsettia

Hello Crafty Stampers,  today I wanted to share a quick and easy card you can make with the leaves from the rooted in Nature Bundle.

On a piece of Shimmery White stamp the small leaf in a circle with Lovely Lipstick.  I know it's hard to believe that's the color.  But I think it turned out rather nice.  It's OK if the leaves overlap a little.  It makes the Poinsettia look very natural.

Stamp greeting and add ribbon.  To hide that blank spot in the center add some bling and layer onto Basic Black and then onto Lovely Lipstick.

This one with the larger leaf in the Rooted in Nature set.

I'm not sure which one I like better, the smaller leaf or the larger one.

Just for You

Today I am showing a card with the Rooted in Nature set and basic masking and sponging.  I am sure you have seen this technique all over pinterest.  It has become very popular with this set.

I masked off on both sides of a piece of Whisper White and sponged with Grapefruit Grove, Calypso Coral and Mango Melody.  Peal of mask and brush over the entire surface with the embossing buddy.

Stamp the tree in Versa Mark and emboss with Copper Embossing Powder.  Stamp sentiment on a scrap of Whisper White and emboss with Copper at the same time.  Die cut Sentiment and the next larger size out of the Early Espresso layer.

Attach all layers.  Before attaching the circle layers take a piece of the Copper ribbon and stretch it out.  The nice thing about this ribbon if you don't like the shape you can pull it back into ribbon form and do it again.  Attach with dimensionals.
