This week for Create with Connie & Mary we are back to our regularly scheduled colour challenge! I am of course super excited about the launch of the new July - December Mini Catalogue from Stampin' Up! that I had to dive into some of my new products! This bundle really grabbed my attention right from the get go, Merriest Moments.
The stamp set is paired with the Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder, which is just the coolest thing! I knew that it would look fantastic with the colours that were a part of our challenge this week. In fact, Night of Navy and Petal Pink are a couple of my most favourite colours, so I was excited to work with them!
I thought that these fantastic birch trees would make the perfect backdrop for my card. Are you wondering where these are from? Then you better go to the Sale-a-Bration brochure and see the Peaceful Prints Designer Series Paper that you can earn for free during this August and September! All of the patterns are incredible, but I especially love the birch trees.
To create this card, I embossed my Soft Succulent cardstock with the folder and then cut out the design with the coordinating dies. Isn't that awesome?! The sentiment is heat embossed in white on Night of Navy cardstock. This stitched rectangle is also from the dies and is obviously a perfect fit for the card. I simply stamped the poinsettia in Petal Pink, cut them out and added in a couple branches stamped in Soft Succulent. I added a little white bow from some baker's twine and the card was complete!
I know I'm going to get a lot of use out of this bundle and these colours together are just fabulous and might be a new favourite combo for me! If you would like some more inspiration using these colours, be sure to head over to Create with Connie & Mary to see what they other amazing designers put together, so many great ideas!
