The Color Coach is back!

If you struggle with coordinating colors the Color Coach can help.  It provides multiple ways to find the perfect combinations.

The Color Coach is Stampin' Up!'s version of the color wheel and is based on color theory—the combination of art and science that determines what colors look good together.

One side of the Color Coach has all current Stampin’ Up! colors (except Neutrals) laid out with a spinning wheel in the center. This center wheel gives you monochromatic, complementary, analogous, and triadic information about our colors. The back explains each of these concepts, plus our range of neutral colors.

It's $12.50 and can be seen here. 

For example who would think Pretty Peacock and Pumpkin Pie would go together so well?  They're on the edge of complimentary colors but work wonderfully!

Below is a sample of an Analogous color combination.  SU created designer papers with shades of similar colors using our Full of Life DSP in the Annual Catalog.

Have a great weekend!

• Pretty Christmas Classics card; video & free project sheet

  December 4, 2023

  ---

  We made this pretty card at my November card clubs. I also featured it on last week's video too.

  I feel the clean layout shows off the pretty die-cuts. A simple piece of designer paper and a textured background add all the details needed to make this stand out card.

  I gave them a few choices on their cards – greetings and embossing folders.

  I've found the Christmas Classics bundle to be my 'go to' for holiday cards this year.  Between the pretty dies and the wonderful greetings and botanical assortment it has it all! I love how the white greeting die-cut fits so perfectly on the detailed leaf die-cut. See this bundle here.

• 2 more Bee My Valentine projects with free project sheets & video

  December 1, 2023

  ---

  We made these projects at a recent Stampin' Up! event called OnStage@Home. A virtual event filled with fun and demonstrations.

  This first card is bright & colorful.  Lively & fun.

  The stamp set is photopolymer so I could bend the normally straight greeting  into a curve!  The colors are Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, black and a bit of Pool Party.  I made a bunch to use as thank you cards.

  Next is another card featuring Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, Black and Petal Pink. The designer paper is separated by a strip of card stock and used as the greeting layer. Neat idea!

  This bundle comes out in the 2024 Spring catalog in early January. Demonstrators can pre-order it in December. We're grateful for a chance at upcoming products early!

• Bee My Valentine sneak peak projects! With a free project sheet

  November 30, 2023

  There's a new bundle coming in January with the 2024 Spring catalog!  It's called 'Bee My Valentine' and it's super fun!

  Save

  I LOVE the builder punch and how versatile it is.  The large heart shape is for the wings, but could be used as a heart too. The small heart works on it's own or for the antenna. The bee body could be a word bubble!

  We made this adorable card at a recent Team gathering called OnStage @ Home. 

  Save

  The colors include Poppy Parade, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, Black & White. The bee wings are made from our Vellum cardstock, colored with Pool Party ink by pressing the ink pad directly to the paper. I heat set the color with a heat tool before I stamped the wings in Black. Vellum does not absorb ink quickly so heat setting with a heat tool can be necessary.

  You can spy a few new products here – the Bee Mine designer paper (side strips) and the new Poppy Parade ribbon. 

  I made a bunch of them to use as thank you cards:
