New In Colors!

This year with the new catalog we get new In Colors!!  I am really loving the colors we get this time around, they are gorgeous! I made 3x3 cards for you to see how gorgeous they really are. First up is Strawberry Slush.

For this card, I used a layer of Whisper White embossed with the new Modern Mosaic Embossing folder.  I die cut a piece of the new Quatrefancy Specialty DSP with the Windows Framelits.  I also die cut Whisper White CS and stamped one of the mosaic stamps  with the Strawberry Slush.  The greeting stamp that I placed inside the mosaic is from Teeny Tiny Wishes and it fit perfectly!  I am loving this color, it's really yummy!  Let's move on to Crisp Canteloupe.

For this card, I used several of the Mosaic Madness stamps to create a fun pattern.  I was using clear mount stamps, so I just free handed the stamping.  I added in a greeting using the new hostess set Banner Greetings.  This is a gorgeous color!  Let's check out the next on the list, Pistachio Pudding.

This is another yummy color!  I used the new Mosaic Madness again and made a pattern free hand.  This is my favorite pattern from all the cards I made.  I added a greeting from Banner Greetings again.  A very fun card!  The next color is Coastal Cabana.

This is my favorite new In Color.  I just love it!  Once again for this card I free hand stamped a mosaic pattern.  There are so many design options with the Mosaic Madness set.  You can make your own DSP!  For the greeting, I die cut the smallest Window Framelit then added a greeting from A Round Array that was punched with the 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch.  Now for the last color, Baked Brown Sugar.

Yet another delicious color!  Once again I free hand stamped a mosaic pattern.  I used A Round Array for the greeting punched with the 7/8" Scallop Circle punch. 

I had so much fun making all these cards!  The Mosaic Madness set has so many design options.  It is really a fun set to use, a real must have!  And the new In Color Collection is another must have.  I know that I will be using all of these colors a ton in the future.

Thanks for stopping by!  I have a fun 3D project in the works to showcase the Quatrefancy DSP and Mosaic Madness, so be sure to stop back!

Mosaic Madness for TSSC264

It's Monday already and time for a new sketch for the Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge at Technostamper.  Here's a look at this week's sketch.

I have been having a ton of fun using the new Mosaic Madness stamp set, so of course I used it for this challenge!

My color inspiration came from the piece of Quatrefancy DSP that I picked.  The colors are Island Indigo, Pool Party, and Soft Sky.  The Island Indigo card base was embossed with the Modern Mosaic EF.  I added a layer of Soft Sky CS next.  Then I added in the design elements.  The DSP was layered over a strip of Island Indigo to make it pop.  I die cut a piece of Soft Sky CS with the smallest Window framelit and stamped a mosaic on it with Island Indigo. 

I decided to make the mosaic pattern pop more by stamping with Island Indigo on Whisper White CS and cutting them out.  I adhered them to the originally stamped design with dimensionals.  I added small pearls to the center of each mosaic as a finishing touch.  I layered my framelit cut out to Island Indigo CS and hand cut around the framelit to add a matting.  This piece was adhered to the center of the DSP with a dimensional.  The last thing to add was a greeting.  I used Teeny Tiny Wishes for the greeting which was stamped in Island Indigo.  A couple pearls on each side of the greeting and my card is complete!

See it Again Saturday: A Father's Day Card

Time for another See it Again Saturday card layout.  This week I am doing a re-visit of this week's challenge card for Create with Connie and Mary.  Click HERE to go to the post from Thursday.  Here's another look at Thursday's card.

I stuck with the same colors for my re-visit card.  Here's what I came up with.

The card base is Sahara Sand embossed with the new Modern Mosaic EF.  I used one of the smaller stamps from Mosaic Madness to stamp inside the mosaic pattern with Sahara Sand ink to form a pattern.

The focal point of the card is two layers of the window Framelits in Soft Suede and So Saffron.  I used the piercing template that matched from the Festive Paper Piercing Pack to form a border around each of the layers of CS. For this card I added the greeting as a banner across the framelit focal point.  I used the retired set Something to Celebrate.  The greeting is stamped with Soft Suede ink on a strip of Whisper White CS.  I used my 1"square punch on the ends to create the banner. 
I really like this layout, will be sure to use it again!

Thanks for visiting!
