Soft and mellow the new In Color Bumblebee is a lovely new color to add to your collection. It’s part of the five new 2020-2022 In Colors that I’m highlighting this week and can be purchased on it’s own or part of the In Color Ink Pad Collection (154597). It also an assortment pack of card stock (153074) which makes it a great place to start building a color pallet.
Check out these lovely monochromatic cards that are sure to please. While they all use different stamps the Bumblebee gives them a warm buttery feel. This first card uses the Tasteful Touches Bundle (154098) and is teamed up with our Basic Black Card stock (121045) and ink. A little texture has been added with the Tasteful Textures 3D Embossing Folder (152718) and In Color Designer Series Paper. I think would make a great masculine card. What do you think?
This next card also uses the Tasteful Touches Bundle but it’s been teamed up with our Whisper White card stock this time.
And how about this card done in Basic Gray (121044) and Bumblebee?
It uses our Well Written Dies (151816) found on page 183 of the Annual Catalog. The Subtles 3D Embossing Folder (151775) adds some texture to the card.
I can’t pick a favorite, can you? Why not leave me a comment and let me know which one you like and why? Then stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing some projects made with the 2020 In color, Cinnamon Cider.
Love Pink? Love bright and cheerful? If so then Magenta Madness will be right up your alley! Magenta Madness is one of the five NEW 2020-2022 In Colors and it’s sure to bring a smile to your face.
Check out these wonderful monochromatic cards made using the Magenta Madness In Color. I love how this simple Paper Piecing technique makes this card really pop and it’s so easy to do.
Simply stamp your project, then stamp the image again onto the 2020-2022 In Color Designer Series Paper (153070) and cut out with a Paper Snips. Add it to your stamped image and voila! Like I said soooo simple and it really makes an impact.
Here is another simple stamping project perfect for beginners as the 3 panels are cut individually and added to the card front. Simply stamp the sentiment of choice and the floral image found in the Bloom & Grow stamp set (149229) using Magenta Madness onto Whisper white card stock panels
The Magenta Madness Designer Series Paper and 1/4″ Ribbon add some more interest and texture to the card.
And if you love bundles how about this simply lovely card using the Blossoms in Bloom Bundle (154123) found on page 51 of the Annual Catalog?
Monochromatic cards like these are a great way to start building your supplies and since the 2020-2022 In Color Collection has just 5 Classic Ink Pads in the money saving Bundle (154957). It is also a fun way to start building your collection of colors or even freshen it up with some on trend colors too!

Today I had my team meeting and we had a great time sharing swaps – Our theme this month was masculine and they were all fantastic so I wanted to share them quickly with you today too.
This first card has been teamed up with the Letters for You Stamp set (141968) which is one of my favorite items that is retiring this year, since it is perfect for all kinds of projects including samplers.
And how about this card using our Retiring In Color Trqnquil Tide? It also uses our Water Color Pencils to color the muscle car – yep they aren’t just for water coloring.
And here is a lovely birthday card made using the Gate Fold with an added belly band – If you missed out on the Story Label Punch during Sale-a-bration good news, it will be available again when the 2019 Annual Catalog kicks off June 4th!
Recognize the sentiment? It’s from the retiring All That You Are Stamp set (148664) found in the Occasions Catalog on page 2.
And here is a beautiful card made with the retiring Up & Away Thinlits Dies (142748) that coordinates with the Lift Me Up stamp set (142893/142896) that is also retiring.
The beautiful background was done in Blueberry Bushel stamped. The retiring Marbled Background stamp (143755/144772) has been inked up and then stamped off first before stamping again onto the Whisper White layer to give it a softer feel.
And here is a fun fancy fold card using the retiring Country Livin’ stamp set (141922/141925) and our Well Written Framelits Dies (148534).
I love the way this card opens to hold a gift card or special sentiment. And do you recognize the die used for the Well Written sentiment? It’s the Lakeside Framelits Dies (146351) that coordinates with the Lilypad Lake stamp stet.
This next card was made using the Best Catch Bundle (150605) ad the Crackle Paint Background stamp (148755)
And how about this card made using the Let it Ride stamp set (148765) and the Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder (143708). Pat made it in honor of Derby Day this past weekend.
And the final swap card of the day uses the Butterfly Gala stamp set (148580) and Everyday Label Punch (144668).

Today’s projects were all part of this month’s Team Swaps – I love the variety of projects that my team always shares and so I wanted to share them with you too!
This first one uses the Tea Together stamp set (148779), Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies (148551) that you can find in the Occasions Catalog along with our Tufted Embossing Folder (146335).
If you love this card you’ll be happy to know if you didn’t get the coordinating Tea Time Framelits Dies for FREE during Sale-a-bration, they will be available again in June since they are part of the 2019 Annual Catalog. So you can get the set now and start stamping and then get the dies later!
And do you recognize where the word love is from? It’s from our Well Written Framelits Dies (148534) If you haven’t seen this bundle of products found on page 27 of the Occasions Catalog you’ll want to check it out. It’s a wonderful set of sentiments and dies that make up endless options.
This next card uses a favorite set of mine Dandelion Wishes (146744/146747)
along with the Subtle Embossing Folder (143706) – if you don’t have this folder you’ll want it since it adds just a touch of texture to any project! The pop of Lovely Lipstick matting this focal point is lovely with the Grapefruit Grove. A combination I wouldn’t have thought of.
And how about this fun Cross Over Gate Fold Butterfly Gala (148580) card?
I love the way it opens – I can’t wait to try this fold soon –
And now for the 3d projects – I always love the fact we can create great little gifts like these with paper and ink!
Easter is right around the corner and this little kiss basket is perfect
and this little basket made with our Scallop Tag Topper Punch (133324)
