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.

  • 2 fabulous new Kits in our Kit Collection


    At the beginning of each month Stampin’ Up! adds at least 2 new kits in their online Kit Collection. This month they’re extra special!

    First is a 9 card kit called Painted Skies and it’s a big WOW.

    See what I mean? This is an all inclusive kit that has no stamping required. You’ll be especially proud to give these cards away.

    Each one is a fun fold card that opens once and then once more. It comes with everything you need to complete them. Pre-stamped greetings, die-cut beachy elements, Dimensionals, gems and adhesive. It’s $18 and you can see it here.

    The second new kit is a big Scrapbooking kit called Sunniest Stories and can be seen here.

    It can create at least 12 pages like the two above! That’s 6 double layouts in 12 X 12″ size.
    It includes the following:

    Step-by-step instructions

    -12 sheets of single-sided Designer Series Paper

    -4 sheets of precut images and phrases & 4 sheets of cut-apart designs

    -20 colored and patterned 4″ x 6″ cards

    -1 sheet of printed stickers

    -8 yards (7.3 m) of Tear & Tape Adhesive, 100 Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals & 50 Mini Glue Dots

  • A WOW card with Swirled Designs


    This is one of those cards you will not soon forget; the Swirled Designs bundle is so cool!

    See what I mean? The colors include Blueberry Bushel, Shaded Spruce & White. Striking, bold colors for a celebratory card. The stars are die-cuts from the Swirled Designs dies.

    The Swirled Designs bundle was a sleeper; not many people have used it. But once you do…. you’ll want to use it over and over. See the stamp set here and the dies here. You can choose the bundle here, but the dies are discounted which makes it almost the same cost to order separately. It’s on the Last Chance list unfortunately; only available while supplies last.

    For the greetings I used the Reason to Celebrate stamp set. Wonderful and specific greeting images you will love. See it here.

    It’s a simple fun fold card where you score the front one extra time. I used the Garden Poetry DSP for the left side panel. That’s where I got the idea for my colors.

    If you’d like the free project sheet for this card click here. You can download or print it for future projects.

    Below is the video tutorial. Please follow me on Facebook here or my YouTube Channel here so you don’t miss a thing!
