Understanding Color Theory (the Color Wheel) with video


If choosing color combinations is challenging for you the Color Theory video below may help you out. 

You can find a printed color wheel in the new Annual Catalog on page 132.  Some of us lucky Demo's received a real color wheel at OnStage in Houston.  It was a surprise perk for attendees. 

Stampin' Up! has heard from many people begging for one since they saw it. Stay tuned; they are producing another that will be available for purchase later this year.  In the meantime please watch the video seen further below to see how you can use this color wheel.

Here's a photo of the printed color wheel in the catalog: 

My top favorite and easiest way to combine colors is Monochromatic. This means hues of one color – blues, greens etc.  Monochromatic projects are soothing to the eye and can be seamless.  

My second favorite is to use complimentary colors such as pink & green or yellow with purple. 

If you're using designer paper Stampin' Up! has done the work for you – just choose from the colors listed on the back of each package. 

Honestly, how I usually choose colors is to hold the card stock pieces next to each other. For me that's easy, but I know others struggle so I hope the video below will help you out.

  • Third card from the Boho Indigo Product Medley


    This is the last card in the trio we made with the Boho Indigo Product Medley.  

    Almost everything is from the Product Medley except the punched flowers (Confetti Flowers Border punch) and Stitched Nested Labels. 

    The vase is stamped in Misty Moonlight and die-cut with the Boho dies in the Medley. The leaves are stamped in Pear Pizzazz. 

    The little flowers are punched from a piece of Designer Paper in the medley and the centers are added with a Chalk Marker. They're curled up a bit with a stylus.

    Measurements:

    • Misty Moonlight card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Designer Paper 2" X 4 1/4"
    • Pear Pizzazz strip 1/2" X 4 1/4"
    • White & Navy CS for Stitched Nested Labels

    Here are all of the cards we made with the pretty Boho Indigo Product Medley. You can see them all by paging through my blog posts the last few days. 

    The Boho Indigo Product Medley comes with a whole bunch of products all in one box including stamps, dies, beautiful designer paper in 6 X 6" size, textured card stock, die-cuts, ribbon and paper/bead flowers.  The colors are Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, Vanilla, White, Garden Green & gold. 

    If you purchase this Medley in July you'll earn a $5 coupon code to redeem in August. Yay for Bonus Days!!

    There's even a refill option (without the stamps, dies & ribbon).  It is on back order until mid July but still orderable.  It includes the papers and the flowers.  See that here.

    Here's another pretty card featuring the Boho Indigo Product Medley on page 9 of the annual catalog. See it here online.

    Details:

    1. I stamped the greeting from the medley onto a scalloped rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly dies. Then I added a few die-cuts from the Medley in Misty Moonlight & Granny Apple Green.  
    2. I colored the rhinestones with a Light Navy blends marker.  The designer paper strips are 3" wide by 4 1/2" long and punched with the Banner Triple punch. 
    3. The Misty Moonlight layer is 3 3/4" X 5" in size. I added a 3/4" X 4 1/4" Granny Apple Green strip of CS across the back. 

    The Boho Indigo Product Medley comes with a whole bunch of products all in one box including stamps, dies, beautiful designer paper in 6 X 6" size, textured card stock, die-cuts, ribbon and paper/bead flowers.  The colors are Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, Vanilla, White, Garden Green & gold.
