Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!

This month, the theme is the New 2023-2025 In Colors. We hope you will be inspired by all the creations the Pals share with you! You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

It’s always exciting to use the new, “In Colors,” and I chose Boho Blue for the card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

Next, I created the background with Boho Blue Ink and a Bending Brush. While holding an  Artistic Mix Decorative Mask in place with my hand, I smoothed the color onto Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″. 

Along with the new colors, I used two new die sets. If you haven’t noticed them before, take a look now! You can see the complete sets in my Product List below.

“Feel Better Soon”

The Paper Florist Dies is one of the new die sets. I colored Basic White Cardstock with Moody Mauve Ink and a Blending Brush for the die-cut petals, and the flower centers were cut from Fresh As A Daisy Designer in Pebbled Path and Wild Wheat. The leaves were cut from Basic White Cardstock. After curling the petals with a Bone Folder, I attached them with Dimensionals, and glued the centers in place.

The sentiment, “feel better soon,” is from the Wanted To Say Die Set, and I used Pebbled Path to cut the words. Pebbled Path is a great, neutral color, and don’t you love the font? The “bubble” beneath the words is Basic White Cardstock, which enabled me to raise the thin words on Dimensionals.

In addition to the five new “In Colors,” this was Stampin’ Up’s! year for a color refresh. I had fun arranging all of the colors in Stampin’ Up’s! Ink Pad & Marker Storage. The storage units are on page 124 in the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog, and in my Product List below.

Thank you for visiting my blog. I appreciate you!

More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. The Pals are very excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on July 12th, when our theme will be CASE the Catalog, when the design team chooses a card from the new Annual Catalog and recreates it with their own creative twist.

Until then, have fun in your craft space.
