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.

Snowman Peek-a-Boo card with video

January 3, 2020

This interactive card is fun& adorable and my gals loved it at our December club events.

They were anxious that it would be difficult. There is a little trick to it but once you 'get it' you'll find it's pretty easy.

I cased this card from my very creative friend, Julie Davison. Her style is simple yet fun. Her layouts are the best!

My color scheme came from the Let it Snow specialty designer paper from the Holiday catalog. Unfortunately that paper is out of stock. It was VERY popular! It's Coastal Cabana, Real Red, White and Black.

Here's a pretty card I made for a recent online swap I participated in. It features the Thoughtful Blooms and Small Bloom punch on pages 12 & 13 of the Sale-a-Bration catalog. I love it when SU gives us coordinating stamps and punches!

My colors are Blushing Bride, White and Granny Apple Green. I used the new Coastal Weave embossing folder from the Mini catalog, the Stitched Nested Label dies too.

I curled the little petals up with my bone folder and added the Gingham Gala adhesive-backed sequins to the center.

Happy New Year! Highlights video from my home office visit for MDA

Today is my New Catalog Open House and BOGO sale; I am so excited to be able to offer the wonderful deals to my local customers. It's from 1-3:30 pm in my Minot ND studio.

If I have lots leftover I may offer them to my long distance customers. We'll see how it goes!

This last year has been an incredible one for me as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. The highlight was achieving the Million Dollars in sales Achievement. Stampin' Up! makes a big deal of it and I enjoyed every minute of the two days spent in Utah!

Here's a short video of my trip to the home office in Riverton, Utah. I was SO nervous but honestly everyone there is so kind and lovely we had a wonderful time and after my 'speech' all was good!

Thank you to everyone who has been a part of my 14 year journey. Whether you are a customer, follower, Flowerbug's Team member, fellow demonstrator, friend or anything else; you helped make this fun and rewarding!

I love what I do and appreciate you all!
