It is Coming

Have you thought about Mother’s Day?  It is coming very soon.  You have already chosen that very special gift for her, but your mother needs a very special card. So I pulled out the Painted Lavender stamp set and a retired stamp set for the words. Unfortunately, the Designer Series Paper is retired. It was part of the Painted Lavender Suite. It is a very easy card to put together because you just need to cut the flowers.

If you have Perennial Postage stamp set, it has the “Happy Mother’s Day” words you can use. I have a birthday party to go to Saturday so I am going to make another one with “Happy Birthday.”

All About Color

Today I want to focus on something very important.  Color.  Without color, our projects are drab and uninteresting. Stampin’ Up! gives us a wonderful variety of colors and tomorrow we get new colors. How exciting to have them.  Yes, tomorrow is the release of the new 2024-2025 Annual Catalog.  In the back, you will find a Color Week to help you coordinate colors.  Many of you struggle to figure out what colors to use with each one.  Remember we still have the color information on the Designer Series Paper.

Don’t be afraid to try new techniques.  I have given you some ideas below.  also, this link on my website for some videos you might want to try.  Click Here

 

  • Coloring Medium: Make a point to use Stampin’ Write Markers, Stampin’ Blends, Watercolor Pencils, Soft Pastels, Classic Stampin’ Ink Refills, etc.
  • Coloring Technique:
  • : Focus on a specific technique like watercoloring, sponging, brayering, marbling, wet wipes, and more.
  • Color Family Showcase: Focus on a particular color family (Brights, Subtles, Neutrals, Regals, or In Colors).
  • Basic Color Theory: Use the amazing color wheel in the catalog, try out the monochromatic, complementary, analogous, and triadic combos, and explain them to your customers.

Have fun stamping!

Scraps Make A Card

I am digging through all the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper and there are several square scraps.  It makes a perfect background for a card.  In this card, I use the retiring Nature’s Print stamp set.  Then I simply colored the flower with Sweet Sorbet and Old Olive.
