I could not help playing around AGAIN with the upcoming Color and Contour Bundle..it was just calling my name…well, some sample pieces on my desk were calling me to clean them up so I put them on this card. A quick and easy card using Poppy Parade, Shaded Spruce, Basic Black, and Basic White with some Black Matte Dots came out of the mess on my desk!

I love the white sentiment label that is in the Scalloped Contours Dies. I can see a lot of use for one that size. It’s hard to see in the photo but I cut out an oval out of the black scalloped rectangle and put a Poppy Parade scallop border around the opening. The stamped image is adhered to the card base and the black panel is popped up so the stamped image is down inside the oval- it looks really neat with the dimension:)

After playing with the NEW In Colors 2021-2023, I pulled out my Stampin’ UP! Simply Succulents Bundle to use the Soft Succulent cardstock with some other hues of green.

The bottom green is Just Jade, the middle green is Mint Macaron, and the top green is the NEW Soft Succulent. I overlaid a large gorgeous Very Vanilla die cut from the Stampin’ UP! Potted Succulents Dies. I love the sentiment dies in the Potted Succulents Dies, take a look:

I did use some retired Mint Macaron ribbon under the sentiment that I also stamped with Mint Macaron. The little pearls are mint but retired. However, a great thing about Stampin’ Blends is you can color pearls so wonderfully… so no worries, you can color them to match any color!

Take a sneak peek at the NEW Stampin’ UP! 2021-2023 In Colors!

and the NEW Color and Contour Bundle!

NOTE- I called the NEW In Color Soft Succulent right the first few times and then kept calling it Simply Succulent…which is the stamp set I will feature on Friday!

Oh, I always love a new set of layering dies…and the Scalloped Contours Dies did not disappoint me! I really love the largest die in the set that I put on the inside of the card. I colored my flowers on the front with the NEW In Color Stampin’ Blends in all 5 new In Colors and used matching ink on the flowers on the inside.

You will see in the video how I altered my sentiments…remember clean cuts so the stamp can be put back together when you want. A loop of matching ribbon in all five colors finished off the front of each card:) There are even In Color Jewels to match each color. The NEW In Colors and the Color and Contour Bundle are available on May, 4!

Thanks for stopping by, friends…

When I am having a Product Class, I tend to have sample pieces all over my desk…and this time, along with the Art Gallery Bundle, I had a NEW Scalloped Contours Die from the NEW 2021-2022 Stampin’ UP! Annual Catalog, too!:) Make sure to check back on Wednesday for my video showcasing the Color and Contour Bundle!

I used the Stitched So Sweetly Dies for the center white stitched scalloped rectangle and embossed it with the Painted Textures 3D Embossing Folder. I bordered it with the largest stitched scalloped rectangle die in the set. I mounted those two die cut panels on top of the largest Scalloped Rectangle die in the Color and Contour Die Set coming out on May 4, 2021. Of course, the friend comes from the well-used and versatile Well Written Die set.
