Yummy Pale Papaya

I couldn’t resist this soft color and immediately fell in love with this NEW 2021 In Color as soon as I saw it. How about you?

Whether your a fan or not quite sure yet, why not check out these wonderful swaps using the In Color Pale Papaya? They are Monochromatic cards and show just how great this color is! I’ll start with this soft and lovely floral card that uses the Pierced Bloom Dies (154312) as a back drop for the lovely sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set (155052).

The Hand Penned Designer Series Paper (155499) used on this card and the next two cards brings in a soft background of Pale Papaya too. And I think you’ll love the soft feel of the Open Weave Ribbon (155672) for your project since it ties easily and doesn’t have a lot of bulk to it.

This next card uses one of our new stamp sets, All Squared Away (155087)

the sweet Genial Gem (155500) makes the center of the flower have a bit of sparkle. And how about a one of my favorite sets? This card uses the Enjoy the Moment stamp set (154452)

Filled with images from nature and some wonderful sentiments, it is a great choice to add to your collection. Check out the lovely little sequins from the Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequin pack (152477). They coordinate nicely with the Pale Papaya.

The Sweet Strawberry stamp set (158231) was used to create this next card using the 2021-2023 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack (155641), Jewels (155571), and Stampin’ Write Markers (155639).

Like flowers? Then the Daisy Garden Background stamp (155079) and Daisy Lane stamp set (149325) might be right for you.

The Daisy Lane stamp set has some great sentiments and has 2 coordinating punches so it makes things a snap. The bit of Vellum has been die cut with the Forever Flourishing Dies (152714) to add a bit of interest and there are those fun Genial Gems too. They are great for tons of different projects with their little bit of shimmer. And this last card has been dry embossed with the Dandelions 3D Embossing Folder (152953).

A bit of sponging highlights the embossed image and sentiment from the Elegantly Said stamp set (155095) that has been punched out with the Label Me Lovely Punch (151296). More of the Genial Gems are used for a bit of shimmer and the 1/2″ Pale Papaya & White Ribbon (155816) adds a bit more texture with its loving weaving of white throughout and on the edges.

So what do you think of our new 2021 In Color, Pale Papaya? Why not stop by my Online Store and check it out? You’ll find this and our 4 other In Colors that are available by themselves, as a bundle. In addition you’ll see all kinds of accessories that coordinate with Pale Papaya making it a great choice to purchase.

Sweet as a Peach

Today’s card uses one of the Suites from the Annual Catalog, It immediately drew my attention with it’s wonderful color pallet. After all I live in Georgia, so how could I resist a set great sentiments and images of peaches? We are the peach state after all.

I think you’re going to really like this Suite, so much so I’m going to be doing a class with it in August! I made today’s card for the Maui Incentive Trip card swap that I will be participating in this week. And really love the way it turned out using a simple sponging technique to create a two tone effect on the fruit and branches.

And it’s a fun fold too! So why not check out my video tutorial and see what you think?
