Make N Take with Color & Contour Bundle

Hello Stampin' Friends. Earlier this month I attended my first Stampin' Up! Retreat since January 2020! I met with my SU upline and peers in Sumter, SC for a weekend of stampin', laughter, and much needed girlfriend time. Among the many things we did, our upline had a surprise pack of Make-n-Take cards for us to craft.  And this lovely card was the first. 

The card base is Pale Papaya cardstock. To that we layered a rectangle of Pattern Party (Hostess) Designer Series Paper. Atop that is a strip of Night of Navy cardstock that was embossed to add texture. Next a strip of Pale Papaya woven ribbon, followed by the scallop edged stamped sentiment tag. We stamped and cut the floral stem from the Color & Contour bundle and finished the card with In-Color gems.

 

I love the cards my upline designs. We have very different stamping and designing styles, but her cards always appeal to me. I hope that you might like this card also.

Thanks for stopping by today.

More Color & Contour Fun

 

Hello Stampin' Friends. Can you tell I am really enjoying the Stampin' Up! Color and Contour Bundle? I have had so much fun with this amazing stamp and die set, creating cards from elegant to whimsical. Today's card is all about whimsical!

I began with a quarter sheet of Stampin' Up! Vellum and I colored on it with Stampin' Blend Markers - four colors. I then added used a paint brush and added drops of alcohol to the ink colors. Since the Stampin' Blends are alcohol markers, the alcohol acted with the ink color and spread it and created fun patterns. 

After the vellum dried, I trimmed the edges and cut the vellum down to three strips 1.5 x 3.6 - inches. I affixed the strips to a piece of Pale Papaya cardstock, then I cut a Pale Papaya frame. I matted the framed section onto a 5.25 x 4 - inch rectangle of Polished Pink Cardstock.

Before affixing the layers to the black card base, I wrapped Polish Pink ribbon around opposite corners, gift wrap style. I added a double bow, then glued the card front to the base. 

I stamped three Color and Contour double stamp flowers onto white cardstock in black ink. I then used Polished Pink and Pale Papaya inks to complete the second step stamping. I used markers to color the flower center and stampin' dimensionals to affix the flower to the card.

I finished the card with the adorable sentiment from the same stamp set, stamping on white and matting on black. 

I hope you enjoyed this fun card. I am adding a list of products used to make this card below.

Color and Contour In-Color Card

Hello Stampin' Friends. Today I am back to share another card made with the fabulous Stampin' Up! Color and Contour Bundle. This is one of the cards that the guests created at my Catalog Launch/Bingo event last weekend. 

The card features a new in-color base card, Pale Papaya. To that a scalloped edge mat was die cut using the Color and Contour dies. A rectangle of Hand Penned Designer Series Paper was added a top mat. 

The inverted scallop edged sentiment area was created using the scallop edge die in the Color and Contour dies. I stamped a happy birthday sentiment in another new in-color, Fresh Freesia.

The flowers and stems on the front used a two-step process. The outlines were stamped in black and the coordinating second stamp, the petal fill in, was stamped in Pale Papaya. I used the Fresh Freesia marker to color in the flower centers, and the Soft Succulent to add a bit of color to the leaves. The coordinating dies were used to cut the flowers and stems. Dimensional dots were used to affix the flowers to the card front.

To finish the card, a very simple bow in Pale Papaya ribbon was attached to a flower stem.

Color and Contour Fun

Hello stampin' friends. I told you recently that I would be back with another preview of the FABULOUS Color and Contour stamp and die set bundle. This card is more or less lifted from the 2021-2022 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog, but when they do it SO well, it is worth casing.

First, in addition to using the Color and Contour bundle, I also used four of the five new In-Colors: Pale Papaya, Polished Pink, Fresh Freesia, Soft Succulent, and not pictures, Evening Evergreen.

The base card is Polish Pink cardstock. The scallop edged die is part of the Color and Contour bundle - it is the largest of the five layering dies in the bundle. 

To create the fun striped background, I used our Stampin' Up! Blending Brushes with the in-color inks on white cardstock. I then stamped the fun flowers in black ink and added polished pink ink splatter dots. I finished the card off with in-color gems placed randomly on the card front.

This card looks more difficult to make that it is. It was a quick and simple card, with a huge visual impact. 

I am going to rush off and start dinner, but I wish I could stay and share further.

Color and Contour Fresh Freesia Card

Hello stampin' friends. Hold on to your stamp blocks because today I am sharing a stunning card created mostly with new products. This card includes a die cut flower from the new Color and Contour stamp and die bundle. The beautiful, scalloped edge cut is also from this bundle. I have NO idea why I used an ornate lacy die when the Color and Contour bundle includes beautiful scallop edged dies too.

I used a new in-color, Fresh Freesia, for the base card. I used the scallop edged die to cut the front edge of the card and the pretty floral Hand Penned designer series paper. I added a white insert inside the card and a cut that with the same die. The bow on the front was made using the Fresh Freesia ribbon - so pretty. 

What I like best about this stamp set is the abstract artsy flowers and the classic scalloped border and layer dies (see image below). It is a great combination of whimsical and classic.

Thank you for stopping by today. I will be back soon with another look at this fabulous stamp and die bundle.
