Understanding Color Theory (the Color Wheel) with video

May 2, 2024

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.

I am so excited about sharing this project on today's FB Live video!

In the photo below you'll see something that looks like a card…. but it's not!

It's actually a card folio that 'fits' cards inside. Today is a sneak peek; I'll share details in the video today and more on tomorrow's blog post.

I've made one years ago and when my friend Susie Wood shared hers I had to make one too! I chose to use the Good Feelings stamp set seen here.  It's on sale starting today with the Seasonal Sale. It was $24 but is not $20.40.

In the folio I used the Contoured Scalloped dies for the frame, a few dies from the Penned Flower dies seen here. They were $30 and are now $24. I also used the coordinating Hand-Penned Petal stamp set seen here. They were $22 and are now $18.70.

Save

My colors include Soft Succulent, Petal Pink, Evening Evergreen and Calypso Coral. The pretty Designer Paper is the new Fitting Florets seen here; it's available through January 4th or while supplies last. It's also part of my card kit to go seen here or the PDF tutorial here.

Join me here at 11 am Central time on Facebook. Or click here to see it on YouTube later.
