07.29.2024…..Happy Friday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I wanted to share a card that I created for this month’s Stampin’ Fancy Friday challenge! It’s a “color combo” challenge! Our team members each created a color combo! inspired by color combo from Annual Catalog, something you see in fashion or home decor, advertisement, etc. 

For my card, I chose a color combo with a coastal vibe…..lots of white, along with pale blues and greens. I used Blending Brushes to add Coastal Cabana and Soft Sea Foam to Basic White Thick Cardstock, then cut out the leaves with the Textured Floral Dies. I also used the Unbounded Love Dies, Country Birdhouse Dies, and the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder.

Be sure to join us to see what our Stampin’ Fancy Friday team created. We have a total of 30 amazing projects to share this month, and each using their own unique interpretation of the challenge!

Then…..when you CASE one of our SFF teammates, share your project on IG or FB and tag us by using #stampinfancyfriday or #fancyfridaychallenges in your post. We will share in our stories to inspire others as well!

07.14.2024…..Happy Sunday, my stampin’ friends! One of my favorite things to do is to create colorful watercolored paper, and then use it to die cut different little pieces and shapes. Today, I used a Water Painter to add Granny Apple Green, Summer Splash, and Azure Afternoon to Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper. I then used a couple of the Country Birdhouse Dies to cut out the little flowers. Hope this card inspires you to add of bit of watercoloring and diecutting to your cards and projects, too!
