Fresh Freesia Monochromatic Swap Cards

   

• Fresh Freesia Monochromatic Greeting cards
• Final week to earn additional $25 in Stampin' Rewards
• June Host Code

I mentioned last week that I was participating in card swaps with other Stampin' Up! Demonstrators.  This week I'll share some of the wonderful cards I received from these swaps.  Today, I have a few cards from the Monochromatic In Color swap.  These card feature Fresh Freesia, which Basic White and Basic Black accents.  I love this new In Color.  It works so well with florals, butterflies or dragonflies!  I'm so glad we have coordinating ribbons and accessories on top of cardstock, designer series paper, and inks in this color.  It makes cardmaking almost effortless when you know your papers, inks, and accessories will match.   

      

The card below was created by a Demonstrator friend, Lorrie Skinner.  She used the Color & Contour Stamp Set for her floral images.  She created the Fresh Freesia background using the Brick 'N Mortar Embossing Folder.  The curved section was created using the Inspiring Canopy Dies.  The basecard is Thick Basic White, and then a layer of Basic white specked with Fresh Freesia dots.  The Color and Contour Dies were used to die cut the stamped and colored flowers.  The flowers were colored with Fresh Freesia Blends.  Three Rhinestones adorn the upper left corner.  I love the way the bricks show through the curved area.

This next card, below, uses the Flowers of Friendship Stamp Set.  This set is part of a bundle that includes a punch for more flowers and leaves. Again, the main colors used on this card are Fresh Freesia Cardstock and 2021-2023 6" X 6" In Color Designer Series Papers.  The sentiment uses the Double Oval Punch and Highland Heather ink for the stamped flowers and Fresh Freesia ink for the sentiment.  The beautiful 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon and bow adds a soft touch, as does the butterfly die cut using the Brilliant Wings Dies.  Unfortunately, there was no name on this beautiful card..  If this is your card, thank you for the beautiful use of Fresh Freesia.

This final card, below, was a card I created for this swap, and posted previously.    I also used Fresh Freesia Cardstock as my Basecard along with 2021-2023 6" X 6" In Color Designer Series Paper, and Basic White Cardstock.  I used the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set and the coordinating Dragonflies Punch to create the images on this card.  I added a sentiment using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and a Pastel Pearls as an accent.  The dragonflies were stamped on 2021-2023 In Color Shimmer Vellum with Highland Heather Ink.   You can find a more detailed explanation for creating this card in this earlier post.   

These cards showcase the different looks you can create  with just one of the In Colors, Designer Series Paper, and Basic White. This is a color that feels fresh and honest.  It is the perfect color to convey friendship.

Sneak Peak of Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper from the upcoming annual Catalog

• Stampin' Up! Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper
• Flowers of Friendship Stamp Set
• Join Stampin' Up! May 4 and shop the new catalog with your Demonstrator Discount

I wanted to highlight another one of the prints in the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper today.  I paired it with Pale Papaya, one of the new In Colors, and Pumpkin Pie, and a new coordinating Pale Papaya & White Ribbon.   I also used some of the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels.  Customers can begin ordering from the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog on 4 May 2021. 

   

The basecard for this cards is Pale Papaya.  Then a layer of Pumpkin Pie.  Then one of the prints from the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper.  

 

Then, I created a bow using the a new Papaya and White ribbon and wrapped it around the Pumpkin Pie layer. 

I created a label using Basic White.  I used one of the sentiments from the Flowers of Friendship Stamp Set and stamped it in Soft Succulent ink.  I added a small strip of Soft Succulent cardstock at the top of the sentiment label.  Then, I added three of the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels to the bottom of the sentiment label.  

You'll love the prints in the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper.  Although it is meant to be used with the stamps and dies in the Hand-Panned Suite, I'm finding that this Designer Series Paper can be used with almost any of the new floral sets from the new annual catalog.   Add the Hand Penned Suite (15503) and the Flowers of Friendship Bundle (155590)  to your new catalog shopping list.  Then on 4 May 2021, when the new annual catalog launches, order it from my Stampin' Up! shopping site  24 X 7.
