Vibrant Vases

I posted a sketch challenge over on my Facebook business page.  I gave the sketch a whirl last night.  I haven't cut into my new In Colors dsp yet, ,so I decided to use that.  Pretty Peacock is my favorite new In Color.  What is yours?  Leave me a comment and let me know.  I'm not sure why I hadn't used it yet, but I'm glad I did.  I paired it with Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green, and Pineapple Punch.  I would use this color combination again.

The stamp set is called Vibrant Vases and it's a great set!  I stamped the vase on Shimmery White Cardstock in Pretty Peacock, used the solid vase to stamp over with Granny Apple Green, and then punched out.  The flowers were stamped with Pretty Peacock and colored in with Pineapple Punch and a Blender Pen.  Then I fussy cut the flowers, and adhered the vase and popped the flowers with dimensionals.  The sentiment is stamped in Bermuda Bay.  Isn't it a pretty font?  Please let me know what you think!

Mosaic Mood

Don't you just love the new Stampin' Up! designer series papers?!  There are so many beautiful ones.  The Mosaic Mood dsp makes it so easy to create a card!  I made two different cards for class so everyone could have an option to choose from.  I simply fussy cut the roses and the hummingbirds from the paper.  We stamped a sentiment on this beautifully shaped die from To a Wild Rose and then added the Mosaic element.  It was so easy!  I love the colors in it.  I used So Saffron as a base and added the strip of Mint Macaron.  I added texture to one with the basket embossing folder.  You could use just about any of them.  The Mosaic Tile folder would look even better!  (note to self: order that next).  I finished off the rose card with the metallic pearls, another favorite of mine!  Let me know which is your favorite!

*edited to add a Mint Macaron version below.  I needed several healing hugs type cards this week!

Well, it's here!  The brand new Stampin' Up! Catalog is live!!

Here is a card using the Free As A Bird bundle.  Oh, I just love this set!  The dsp is gorgeous!  I stamped these sweet little birdies in Memento Ink and colored in with Stampin' Blends.  The sky background was created by coloring Light Pool Party and fading with the Color Lifter.  I really love the Free As A Bird Bundle.  The stitched shapes are amazing!  I can see myself using them a LOT.
