Playing with the New Stampin' Up! 2020 - 2022 In Colors - Highlighting Just Jade!

It seemed like it took forever to get my pre-order and then when I did, I was too busy to play with it!  Well now I have a nice LONG weekend and you can bet I'm going to do some playing around with some of these beautiful stamps, dies, and dsp!

I am Loving the new In Colors!  My first choice was Just Jade!  I've always loved Jade!  It's such a gorgeous shade of green!  This one is a little lighter than what I expected.  I think I had expected more of a dark jewel tone but this is really pretty!!


So I played around with a fun fold on this one.  The card base measured 5 1/2" x 11" and was scored on the 11" side at 2", 3 3/4", 7 1/2" and 9" and was cut from the beautiful new Just Jade cardstock.
I added panels of Whisper White to each front side that measured 5 1/4" x 1 3/4" and a panel of the In Color DSP in Just Jade that measured 5" x 1 1/2".  The center panel was Whisper White and was cut at 5 1/4" x 2 3/4".  I stamped the flower from the beautiful Tasteful Touches Stamp set in Flirty Flamingo in the upper right and lower left side while stamping off of the panel.  I added the sinside sentiment in Shaded Spruce.  For the outside of my card I used a scalloped rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies cut from Just Jade Cardstock and adhered using liquid adhesive on the left side only.  On another piece of Whisper White cardstock I added the You are So Special Sentiment in the middle with Shaded Spruce.  In the lower left I added the floral image in Flirty Flamingo and added the greenery image fromt he set in Mint Macaron in the upper left and around the right side upper and lower.  The Tasteful Touches bundle contains a beautiful set of dies called Tasteful Labels Dies.  I used the largest of those dies to cut the stamped front sentiment panel.  After cutting the panel with the die, I attached it with dimensionals onto the scalloped rectangle panel.  This turned out so pretty!  I hope you like it as much as I do!  Now I'm off to play with more of the In Colors!

Pre-Order is in! With Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle from the new 2020 - 2021 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog

Hi Friends!  I finally had just a little time to play with some of my new Pre-Order Goodies!

Since I didn't have the new In Colors Inks yet (they weren't in the warehouse in time for pre-order!), I decided to use Mango Melody and Pretty Peacock on this one and loved the combination.  It was certainly a color combination I would never have thought of. 

Here's what I came up with for a pretty quick card.


I don't really have any idea what made me pair Pretty Peacock with Mango Melody but I really love it!  Do you know what else I LOVE ?? .... it's the gorgeous Old World Paper 3D Embossing folder!!!  Such texture that folder gives to the background!  I know this will be a favorite and get a LOT of use!   For the sunflower, here's what I did that I would not do next time.  I stamped the Sunflower with Mango Melody Ink onto Whisper White Cardstock.  That was silly because then I had to color it in with my Blends.  The next time I will definitely stamp onto colored cardstock and save the step of coloring.  I did the same with the leaves... so I'll know better next time!  I love the look of adding the adhesive towards the center of the flower and leaving the die cut petals pulled out from the flower.. it really gives it such a pretty look!  This is just the first of many cards.. I'll learn as I go!  

Thanks for stopping by!  Blessings, Tina
