Alison and I are excited to announce that the third Tuesday of each month we will have a new series called "Color Without Borders".
Alison and I will each create a card using the same color palette and share it with you on our blogs.
Here is our first color palette with Stampin' Up! colors Very Vanilla, Smoky Slate, Island Indigo, Basic Black and Berry Burst.
If you love the simplicity of a punch, you really should consider getting the Beautiful Blossoms Stamp Set and coordinating Blossom Builder that I used on today's card.
MEASUREMENTS:
- Basic Black Cardstock: Cardbase 4-1/4" x 11 or 5-1/2" x 8-1/2"
- Island Indigo Cardstock: 1-7/8" x 4-1/4"
- Very Vanilla: 2-3/4" x 4"
- Smoky Slate Stitched Oval: 2-1/4"
The background was embossed using the Big Shot & the Garden Trellis Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
Stamping Tip:
You can color your pearls and rhinestones with the Stampin' Blends, another great reason to buy them. I colored these with the Dark Bermuda Bay.
Two-Step Stamping
I love two-step photopolymer stamps. So easy to line up and see through and get surprising results.
- Outline stamp in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink
- Berry Burst Classic Ink
- Berry Burst Classic Ink off stamped once
Off stamping is when you ink up your stamp and stamp it on a scratch piece of paper before you stamp your image.
- Full Strength
- Off stamped once
- Off stamped twice
- Off stamped four times
I hope you enjoy our new series Color Without Borders and be sure to hop over to Alison's Blog and a see her card.

Oh, wow! Patsy, your card is beautiful! The color combination is fantastic! and the embossing on the black is awesome! Thank you for sharing your time, talents, and imagination with us.
Virginia Aakre says
Pretty color combination. I like how the Berry Burst gives an extra ‘pop’ of color. Nice color combo for a living room, but minus the blue carpet!
Kathy Beemer says
I wasn’t sure about the black base but it is very pretty.
