Retiring In Colors

 These cards were made using the 2018-2020 In Colors from Stampin' Up!  That means these five colors will retire at the end of the catalog selling period at the end of May.  You should start thinking about purchasing any of these products that you LOVE - because they will be gone soon, and many of them sell out before the end of May.

We will be making the cards shown above at my stamp classes this weekend - to remind everyone to stock up now on card stock, ink, markers, blends, ribbon, etc....but especially the ink refills - for these colors.

How I made these cards: 

• Begin by using a Whisper White Thick card base
• I used the large scallop die from the SEASONAL LAYERS dies, to cut the edge of the black card stock piece (5 1/2" x approx 3").  I embossed the black card stock on the card on the left - using the BASKET WEAVE 3D embossing folder.  
• I stamped the small flowers using TUXEDO BLACK MEMENTO INK on the card stock, then punched out using the SMALL BLOOM PUNCH (a Sale-a-Bration free item.)  For the card on the right - I punched out the flowers without stamping the image.
• I arranged the flowers along the edge of the black card stock in a random pattern, then attached them to the card front using glue dots.
• I added rhinestones or pearls to the center of each flower.
• The greetings were stamped in MEMENTO ink using stamps from BUTTERFLY GALA and SO SENTIMENTAL stamp sets.

These cards would work great for almost any occasion - just stamp the greeting that suits your needs!
