Stampin' Up! ABC Color Series - visit juststampin.com for color inspiration and color combinations from A to Z - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Welcome to my ABC Color Series! Stampin’ Up! offers so many great color choices!  I love to combine different colors and patterns and hope to inspire you with some fun color combinations throughout this series. Today’s cards feature some Quick Color Combos. I’m a big fan of “Color Buddies”!

Color Buddies are monochromatic colors that work well together. Just combine different shades of the same hue. Pretty simple, right?!

Sometimes changing up the color combos—even when using the same card design—creates a completely different look and feel!

Measurements:

  • Card base: 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4
  • Coordinating Cardstock Layer:  cut 2 @ 3 7/8 x 5 1/8
  • Embossed Layer: 3 3/4 x 5

I love Stampin’ Up! punches! Stamp a sentiment or image on cardstock, then cut it out with the punch. So easy!  I used the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch on these cards.  You can make quick labels, tags, and accents with this punch. It works with so many sentiment stamps! You can purchase the punch as a bundle and save 10%! The Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle is on the list of My Favorite Things.

Stamp a sentiment, then frame it with a pretty border. The Heartfelt Hexagon Stamp Set has images for stamping labels, tags, and focal points. The sentiments are great for many life events and occasions, from birthdays and weddings to support and sympathy. The fonts and designs are timeless so they look beautiful on any project.

Stampin' Up! Sunny Days and Thoughtful Expressions stack, slice, and shuffle card ideas-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I created these cards using a fun technique called Stack, Slice, & Shuffle. It’s so simple…You stack 3 pieces of DSP, slice together, then shuffle to create 3 cards! Here are the details.

Measurements:

  • Card base: Cut 3 @ 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4
  • Cardstock Layer (Basic Black): Cut 3 @ 5 1/8 x 3 7/8
  • DSP (Sunny Days): *cut 3 different but coordinating pieces- 5 x 3 3/4
    Stampin' Up! Stack, Slice, and Shuffle technique with Sunny Days to create 3 cards-visit juststampin.com for more details-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
  • Basic White (inside): cut 3 @ 5 1/4 x 4, scraps to stamp and cut sentiment

Directions:

  1. Fold & burnish card bases.
  2. Stack together the 3 pieces of designer series paper and cut all 3 at the same time. There’s so many different ways you can “Slice” your paper. I made the first cut ~ 1″ from the upper left edge down to ~ 1″ above the lower right corner. *I did not measure! My second cut was from the middle point to the corner.
  3. Shuffle the DSP- Mix up the 3 sets of DSP so you have one pattern in each stack (like a puzzle).

  4. Adhere the DSP to cardstock layer. Adhere layered DSP to card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  5. Stamp sentiments and cut with Thoughtful Expressions Dies.
  6. Attach ribbon to center of card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add Die cut sentiment on top. Add Adhesive-Backed Heart embellishment.

O is for Orchid Oasis

Stampin' Up! ABC Color Series - visit juststampin.com for color inspiration and color combinations from A to Z - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Welcome to my ABC Color Series! Stampin’ Up! offers so many great color choices!  I love to combine different colors and patterns and hope to inspire you with some fun color combinations throughout this series. Today’s project features Orchid Oasis. Orchid Oasis is one of the 2022-2024 In Colors. It’s a pretty blue purple color and just happens to be one of my daughter’s favorite colors.
Stampin' Up! Perennial Lavender with layering Leaves and HEartfelt Hexagon Thinking of You Card idea-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I used the gorgeous Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper on today’s cards. This is my favorite DSP in the new Mini Catalog!!! I love these beautiful colors together!

Stampin' Up! Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper-visit juststampin.com for inspiration and to order Stampin' Up! products-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Product colors: Berry Burst, Blackberry Bliss, Fresh Freesia, Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Lost Lagoon, Orchid Oasis, Pretty Peacock, Shaded Spruce, Starry Sky

Bring the beauty of lavender to all your paper crafts with Perennial Lavender 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. The hand-painted designs were inspired by fields of wild lavender and the wildflowers that grow right alongside it. Use these lovely sheets as a background image or die-cut pieces to use as an accent for your card making projects.

I rarely make just one card. I like to play around and try different variations and see which version I like better. I started out simple but then kept adding more elements. (That seems to be an ongoing issue with me. LOL) Here’s a closer look at each card.

I love using the DSP to make envelopes to coordinate!
Stampin' Up! Perennial Lavender with Heartfelt Hexagon and Bough Punch Thinking of You Card idea-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I used the same color combo for both cards. I really like this color combination! You could highlight different colors in the paper. If I was using any of the other DSP patterns I would probably go with the Shaded Spruce instead of Lost Lagoon but I thought it was too bold with the Orchid Oasis. (It looks great with Gorgeous Grape.) What do you think of this color combo?

  • Card base: 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4

  • DSP: 2 1/4 x 6 (envelope)
