Color Fusers Blog Hop — May 2023

Welcome to the May Color Fusers Blog Hop. This month, we are celebrating the new 2023-2025 In Colors! These five colors will be available for the next two years, and they are designed to complement Stampin’ Up!’s 40 Core Colors to keep the entire color palette fresh and on trend.

For my project, I decided to focus on two of the In Colors — Moody Mauve and Pebbled Path. They look elegant and beautiful together, and they worked perfectly for the birthday card I needed to make.

My card features the Around The Bend Dies. There’s actually very little stamping on this card, only the sentiment, which is from the Artistically Inked Stamp Set. The rest of the card is all layered die-cuts. I also used the Border Basics Dies for the right-side curve.

Before I continue, I must give credit to my talented friend Elizabeth Price, who inspired this card. You can see her card at Seeing Ink Spots. I loved her card so much, I just had to CASE it.

The Around The Bend Dies are totally awesome! They include gorgeous edge dies as well as numerous small decorative dies. I started this card by randomly watercoloring two small sheets of Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper, one with Moody Mauve ink and one with Pebbled Path. Then I strategically placed my dies in areas with lots of color variation.

I have to admit that I LOVE Pebbled Path! I hardly noticed it at first glance, but it’s a fantastic neutral … warmer than gray, but much more subtle than brown. It has quickly become a favorite of mine!!!

My card also includes some 2023-2025 In Color Designer Series Paper, 2023-2025 In Color Dots, and Moody Mauve 3/8″ Textured Ribbon. All these products come in all five In Colors!
