Bright Color Combo card with the new Watercolor Shapes set

I have lots of creative challenges for my Flowerbug's Team and this time it was a color challenge featuring Night of Navy, Magenta Madness & Granny Apple Green.  Fun, vibrant colors I knew would be fun to play with. 

Watercolor Shapes color combo.. Save

I cut off an inch from the right edge of my Navy card and added a strip of Granny Apple Green DSP on the inside edge.  

I chose to use a stamp set that I hadn't used yet; Watercolor Shapes seen here.  

WATERCOLOR SHAPES PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET Save

I stamped the watercolor shapes all over the 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" White CS but I did stamp off first for a lighter hue.  The greeting stands out more then. 

I found a 'hello' greeting in each of the following stamp sets; Blossoms in Bloom, Create with Friends, Timeless Tropical, Sweet as a Peach, Artistically Inked & Sweet Strawberry.  I had no idea we had that many 'hello's' in our sets! 

What do you think of this color combination?

I stamped a few of these images twice and fussy cut them so I could add some dimension to the card front.  I also added the new In Color Square Gems and a few of the Clear Epoxy Essentials that I colored Granny Apple Green with a Blends marker.

  • Artist of the Month Sending Smiles cards!

    Each month my Flowerbug's Team has a featured 'Artist of the Month'.  For June, Marilyn chose to use the Sending Smiles bundle seen here.  

    She made 5 projects and I'm showing the first three here: 

    June Sending Smiles Marilyn Save

    Her card base is Orchid Oasis and the flowers are stamped in Orchid, Polished Pink, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive.  The flower centers and leaves are separate images so it's easy to have multiple colors on your flowers.  

    She layered the two 'Sending' dies using our awesome Adhesive Sheets; no glue mess!  The Birthday Wishes greeting is heat embossed and die-cut with one of the long dies in the bundle.  The background texture is the Quatrefoil embossing folder seen here.  

    ~~~

    Next is a simple card with just a few layers using Fresh Freesia and Parakeet Party.  

    June Sending Smiles Fresh Freesia Save

    I love the stamped background she did using Versamark.  The White layer is textured with the Painted Texture folder.  The Brass Butterflies are the perfect finishing touch!  

    Her measurements are 2 7/8" X 3 7/8" for the White and 3" X 4" for the Parakeet Party. 

    ~~~

    Next is a fun fold card featuring the new hostess paper pack called Design a Daydream.  Anyone can get this with hostess benefits if the order is over $150. 

    June Sending Smiles Marilyn Save

    Here's a tip on making this diagonal fun fold card.  Cut your card base at 4 1/4" X 11" and score it at 5 1/2".  Now with your card base laying flat and horizontally, cut off the upper left half of this card base on a diagonal.  You'll add the layers of card stock and DSP to that but flip it before adhering it to the main card.  

    She used the Layering Circles dies for her greeting.  I love that you can personalize your greetings with so many options.  This was one of my top 3 sets in the new Annual Catalog.  In fact it was one of the ideas I shared with Stampin' Up! for my Million Dollar stamp set!

    There are 22 stamps in the set and 14 dies!
