Crafty Challenge In Color Blog Hop

Hey y'all!!

I'm Karen and I'm so glad that you hopped over to my blog. Today I am sharing a new project with the 2021-2023 In Colors. If you don't know about In Colors, they are 5 colors that stay with us for 2 calendar years and then retire. This year's colors are beautiful!

See, aren't they beautiful?!? I think Pale Papaya is going to be my favorite! At first I wasn't at all sure about these colors and knew I needed to get them in my hands and play with them. Once they were here and I could stamp with the inks and see the ribbons, I have to admit that once again Stampin' Up! has knocked it out of the ball park with these colors.

Squeal... here is my card. Y'all I LOVE Soft Succulent with Fresh Freesia! The background of this card was made with the blending brushes and one of the new stencils. I love how this one looks like the scales on a mermaid's tale.

Details for today's card

This is a top fold card made from Fresh Freesia. Then I layered Basic White that I used Polished Pink, Soft Succulent, and Fresh Freesia with the stencil. I layered Soft Succulent on top of the Basic White and tied some of the YUMMY new In Color ribbon on the right side. I did stamp the small shell in Soft Succulent on to the layer before adding it to my card. I added a layer of vellum and a Fresh Freesia circle under my mermaid.

I am in LOVE with how this card turned out. The finishing touch for my card is some of the In Color gems in Soft Succulent.

Make sure you check out the other projects in our hop! They are beautiful and inspiring.
