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.

  • More New Catalog Product displays


    A few week's ago I held my Holiday Catalog open house and I shared a few of the displays earlier. Today I'll share the rest for you. 

     

    The Season of Elegance suite includes two bundles, the designer paper, an embossing folder, gems and ribbon.  See it all here. 

    The Season of Elegance specialty designer paper was a top seller at the event.  It's stunning! See it here online.

    I created a display for the Christmas Label dies that coordinates with the bundle seen here.  I love these so much!  The dies aren't just for the Holidays! 

    And here are the Peaceful Season dies at are part of the bundle seen here: 

    Next are the Reindeer Days & Sentimental Christmas displays: 

    Most of these are swaps I received; only the two on the right lower edge are mine.  I love swapping – especially to get samples of products I didn't buy and to show styles that are different from mine. 

    Here's a close up of the last display board – Snowy Scenes Suite, Humble Home bundle & Take a Bow DSP:

  • Stunning Magnolia Mood card


    My friend and team member Bobby sent me this gorgeous card for my birthday.  

    It's Black, White & Basic Gray with just a hint of yellow.  That gorgeous Black die-cut behind the flower adds fabulous detail. The White layer is textured with the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder seen here. 

    See this beautiful bundle here in my store.  It's in our Online Exclusives and these can be discontinued at any time.

  • Pumpkin Patch pop-up Fun Fold card


    Paula made this super special fun-fold card for our September Team card swap: 

    Can you see how the framed scene is lowering as the card is opened?  She cased this idea from Creating with Kristina who cased it from Sharon Armstrong.  

    The colors are Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Mossy Meadow and White. Her DSP is from the Take to the Sky pack. The dies to create the frame are called Countryside Corners dies and can be seen here. 

    Isn't that neat?!  It's been awhile since I've made one of these types of cards but her card inspires me to make one.  

    This stamp set is called Pumpkin Patch and is part of our Online Exclusives.  See it here. 

    If you look closely at the stamped scene you can tell that she masked her pumpkins & fence. Her sponged sky & grass sure add to the realistic scene!  So well done!
