Bright-Label-Love-Convention-Swap-Card

Hi there!  Today I have for you another card I made as a swap for Stampin’ Up!’s Convention this summer.  This is my FAVORITE color combo!  It’s bright, fun and oh, so pretty together!  Strawberry Slush (loving those new in colors), Bermuda Bay (loving the color refresh bringing some old favorites back), Daffodil Delight, and Pumpkin Pie.  It’s really a pretty simple card – just layers of fun things!

The sentiment from Label Love is embossed with White Embossing Powder onto Bermuda Bay card stock, then easily punched out with the matching Artisan Label punch.  Layered onto a 1-3/4″ Circle punched out of Strawberry Slush card stock and pierced with the Paper-Piercing Tool, Piercing Mat, and the Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack.  The Designer Series Paper (DSP) is from the Polka Dot Parade DSP (Daffodil Delight large circle dot and Pumpkin Pie small polka dot patterns) and the Quatrefancy Specialty DSP (Strawberry Slush geometric pattern).  Oh, and that Bermuda Bay Baker’s Twine!!!  It’s from the Tag a Bag Accessory Kit!  I love that it comes with 20 feet of each of 3 colors exclusive to the kit.  The tragedy of photographs?  You totally cannot tell that the background piece of Whisper White is embossed with the Big Shot and the Modern Mosaic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  You guys know I’m a total ribbon lover, right?  I LOVE to do this technique with the Seam Binding Ribbon and will show it in a video super soon!

Check out my über late Quick Tip Tuesday #21 on Custom Dyed Baker’s Twine.  The Strawberry Slush Baker’s Twine was actually dyed for this project before I decided that I liked the Bermuda Bay better.  🙂  That post is dated today as well as I had some serious technical issues last night/this morning (uploaded 4 separate times to YouTube).

I LOVE the In Colors released last June.  They are so so pretty together, whether you use all of them or just two as I have here.  The bright, fun colors in the Patio Party Designer Series Paper gave me a fun jumping off point for this color combo of Midnight Muse, Primrose Petals, and Whisper White.  I paired this with one of my favorite stamp sets, Mixed Bunch and its matching Blossom Punch!  It is such a fun set because you can use it with the punch, stamp it directly to paper without punching (like I’ve done in the background here), or use the punch alone too!!!  I usually use the stamp set with the punch, so it’s a totally different look when you use them separate from each other!  Love that!  I’m sure I CASEd this card from someone, somewhere but I have no idea who!  Nine times out of ten that’s what happens with me!!! 🙂

Tip of the Day:  Any time you’re stumped about a color combination, find one of your Designer Series Papers and use the colors in the paper!  You don’t even have to use the paper, so check out even the DSPs you don’t own in our catalogs!  In-Color-Mixed-Bunch-Card
