2018-2020 In Colors - Small Square Cards Introducing the New In Colors

Stampin' Up! is known for their extensive colour collections and coordination. We have 4 families of 10 unique, gorgeous colours: Neutrals, Regals, Brights, and Subtles. To add variety and ensure they are always on trend, Stampin' Up! also releases 5 new colours every year, for a period of 2 years, we call those InColors. Discovering what will be the 5 new colours chosen every year is always a very exciting time for demonstrators and other enthusiast. These colors are revealed with the annual catalogue, in July.

This year's colours are: Lovely Lipstick, Grapefruit Grove, Pineapple Punch, Call Me Clover, and Blueberry Bushel. They are very bright and lively colours, and they go together very well, which isn't always the purpose of these additions. I usually change my mind on which one is my favourite over time, but for now, I really love the shade of Grapefruit Grove.

I wanted to make a sample of cards to showcase these new colours, and chose to make small square cards (3x3) so they could easily be grouped together as a gift or something. I had received the new Around the Corner stamp set and thought it was perfect for small cards like this. I stamped the sentiment in each colour, and then added 3 stars in the coordinating cardstock. I cut them out with the die from the Wood Crate Framelit set. I adhered them with dimensional, making sure to place two of them off the sides. Then, I used paper snips to cut the excess along the side of the card. It was very quick and easy to make these cards, but I thought the result was beautiful, especially to show off the new InColors!

Nature's Poem Card Stack using Stampin' Up! products

I am in love with the Nature's Poem suite! Look at those gorgeous colours, those soft natural images, and those amazing patterns! It is exactly my style and I was SO excited when I saw it. I just had to order the whole suite. (See it on p.142-144 of the Annual Catalogue) The suite includes: a double stamp set (10 images + 6 sentiments), coordinating Framelit Dies, 4 colour Twine pack, Silver and Copper metallic leaf trinkets, Cardstock Pack, and the Designer Series Paper. Shop the products here. I decided to make a whole stack of cards with the suite, using two basic designs. It is so easy to mix and match products and colours from the suite, that I was able to create several cards very easily. I chose to work with 4 different coulours (Tranquil Tide, Cajun Craze, Grapefruit Grove, Soft Suede) but there are so many other beautiful colours in this suite! For the card design above, I cut the DSP into a mat size (4 x 5-1/4) and for the card design ...

Nature's Poem Card using Stampin' Up! Products - with PDF Tutorial

Every month, I give my team: the Chinook Stampers, a different challenge. I try to find ways to engage them and help their business at the same time. In July, I decided to give them a creative challenge. I prepare small kits with a number of pieces and asked them all to create a card using these pieces. It was so much fun to see everyone's styles and creation. I really enjoyed seeing how unique each card was, even though we used some of the same items. The elements I included in the kits were: White Baker's Twine, The Stitched Square Die Cut, The strip of Wood Texture DSP, the Soft Suede punched label, and the Corrugated Element Oval Tag. This here is my card made with these elements. I chose to pair it with the Nature's Poem suite. (See the list of materials and instructions in the tutorial posted at the bottom) It was certainly fun to find a creative way to incorporate all these pieces onto one card. it's a little different than how I usually work, so it ...
