Hello, welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month our theme is the “new 2020-2022 In Colors.” The Design Team is showcasing the new family of in colors from the new catalog. We know you will love them as much as we do! At the end of my post, you will find the full line-up below to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
Wow! The new “in colors” are so pretty, it’s hard to pick a favorite. Rather than slight any of the colors, I created a card using all five.
In Color Hearts
The heart was made with a Birds & More Die, and the five new In-Colors of Cardstock: Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider, Just Jade, Misty Moonlight, and Magenta Madness, in that order. If you look closely, you can see a pretty edge on the hearts, highlighted by being lifted on Mini- Dimensionals.
“Thinking of you with all my heart” is from the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set, stamped in Night of Navy Ink, and cut with an Ornate Frames Die.
The wonderful, dotted paper is one of four patterns of In Color 6X6 DSP. You can see the other patterns in my Product List below. I used an Ornate Layers Die for cutting, which gives it a fantastic edge, don’t you think?
How do you like the ribbon? It’s the Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon, which is my favorite!
The card base is Thick Whisper White Cardstock, layered with Whisper White Cardstock that was cut with the largest Ornate Layers Die. The white really makes those colors pop!
More inspiration awaits! Use the Blog Hop Line-up below to visit the rest of this month’s Design Team. My fellow Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Mark your calendars for July 8th – Gifts from the Garden when the design team will showcase cards or gift ideas from treasures found in the garden. Don’t miss the fun! Until then, please stay safe and have fun in your craft room.

Today’s card shows the versatility of the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Designer Paper. You can use the backside to color it with any colors your heart desires.
Laser-Cut Color
I used Sponge Daubers and three colors of ink: Mint Macaron, Granny Apple Green, and Pear Pizzazz. See how much fun this is? I’ll complete a card with the stenciled portion to show you later this week.
I glued the colored, Laser-Cut Paper to Whisper White Cardstock, which I embossed with the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder. Next, I glued this layer to a Mint Macaron card base.
The Laser-Cut is intentionally askew to fit the sketch at Fab Friday.
The Fab Friday sketch was also what inspired the size and placement of the sentiment. “So Grateful” is from the Ornate Thanks Stamp Set, stamped in VersaMark on Pear Pizzazz Cardstock. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder, set it with the Heat Tool, and cut it with an Ornate Layers Die.
For a final touch, I added three, little pearls.

It’s always fun to CASE a designer, and today’s birthday card is a CASE of Krista Frattin’s birthday card. I’m naming this “birthday card for all,” because I think it’s appropriate for male, female, young, or younger.
Birthday card for all
I began with a Sahara Sand card base, topped with a layer of Sahara Sand Cardstock. This layer was cut with an Ornate Layers Die, and then embossed with the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder.
A second Ornate Layers Die was used to cut the horizontal strip from Peaceful Poppies Designer Paper.
The focal point, circle, was cut from Whisper White Cardstock, using a Painted Labels Die, which you see in the first picture.
“Happy Birthday,” from the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set, was stamped in Balmy Blue Ink, before placing the circle on Dimensionals.
The last detail was adding some Woven Threads Sequins, along with retired, gold star sequins. And, there you have a very “easy to make” birthday card.

What do you do when your husband needs some “get well” cheer? You find the cutest stamp set, Back On Your Feet, and make him a card! He’s going in for shoulder replacement surgery this week, so I’ll be making several cards, especially for him.
The first thing I did was stamp the giraffe in Memento Black Ink on Thick Whisper White Cardstock. Then, he was fussy cut (cut by hand), colored with Stampin’ Blends in Light Mango Melody and Light Soft Suede, and placed on Dimensionals.
“This is knot good”
For his background, I began with a Crumb Cake card base, topped with a layer of Whisper White Cardstock, embossed with the Hammered Metal Embossing Folder. Hammered Metal? Hah! In this case it’s animal skin! Prior to embossing I used the largest Stitched Rectangles Die to the cut the white cardstock. A second Stitched Rectangles Die was used to make the smaller rectangle, which I backed with Crumb Cake Cardstock, giving it a 1/16″ border.
TIP: I used left-over edges of Stampin’ Dimensionals to raise the smaller rectangle.
The giraffe’s grass was made with 3″ strips of Granny Apple Green Cardstock and a Special Days Die. This is a great die for grass, and you can make it as wide as you want.
I used three, narrow, strips to follow this week’s CAS(E) this sketch.
The sentiment is from Back On Your Feet, and fits the giraffe perfectly, doesn’t it? The sentiments make this set especially cute! You can see the entire set in my Product List, and I’ll be making more cards with it in the near future.
I stamped “This is knot good” in Soft Suede Ink on Thick Whisper White Cardstock, and cut with an Ornate Frames Die. It was just the right size to fit along his neck.

Today marks the first day of the Kre8tor’s Vlog Hop. And guess what……..I’m venturing into “videoland.” Rather than give written instructions for this card, you can watch me in a YouTube video. I used new products from the Forever Greenery Suite, which are gorgeous, and in my Product List below.

For those of you wondering what a “vlog” is, it’s like a Blog Hop, but with videos. This is new territory for many of us, but we are delighted to share with you. So, continuing on to see what the other Kre8tors have in store.

This card was so “quick & easy,” I added a tiny embellishment to spend more time with it! Can you see it?
Gold on Green
I must confess, that tiny embellishment is also to cover up a missing “stitch.” This happened when I used a second Stitched Rectangles Die to make the white rectangle fit within the gold. It seemed to really show up against the gold, so I added some Faceted Dots and a Pearl. My tiny flower adds character, don’t you think?
The sentiment is from the Country Home Stamp Set, stamped in Shaded Spruce Ink, and glued to one of the fabulous shapes of Forever Gold Laser-cut DSP.
The card base is Shaded Spruce, topped with a layer of Whisper White Cardstock with a 2″ strip of Forever Greenery Designer Paper on the left side. I embossed it with the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder for added interest.
My inspiration was from Freshly Made Sketches:
