Color Fusers Blog Hop May 2020

Welcome back to yet another awesome Color Fusers blog hop! We hop together the first Monday of each month bringing you a color challenge. This month, we are using 2 of the retiring In Colors, Call Me Clover and Pineapple Punch.

This year's retiring In Colors have been, collectively, my favorite collection ever created by Stampin' Up!. I love how bold and bright they are. And in 4 short weeks, they will be gone.

Have you grabbed your favorites?

Don't wait!

In Color items are already selling out, as Stampin' Up! has announced the 2020 retiring products, which include these In Colors…the ink pads and any other products in these colors.

Retiring In Colors: Blueberry Bushel, Call Me Clover, Grapefruit Grove, Lovely Lipstick, Pineapple Punch

Along with these In Colors, today's project also features the retiring Love You To Pieces stamp set and the coordinating Puzzle Pieces dies. This bundle was on my first order when it debuted, so it's only fitting it is one of my farewell projects.

This great background was made with one of my go-to embossing folders, the Subtle 3D embossing folder.

It was even fun to add the heart detail to the inside.

To create this card:

Cut a 4 1/4" x 11" Night of Navy card base, scored at 5 1/2"
Cut a 3 3/4" x 5" Call Me Clover cardstock layer
Cut a 3 5/8" x 4 7/8" Whisper White cardstock layer, emboss with the Subtle 3D embossing folder
Die cut a large Night of Navy scalloped oval
Die cut a large Whisper White stitched oval for the sentiment
Die cut Call Me Clover and Pineapple Punch puzzle pieces

Layer the embossed Whisper White layer onto the Call Me Clover layer, and adhere to card front with dimensionals. Stamp sentiment on stitched oval in Night of Navy ink. Stamp hearts over sentiment in Pineapple Punch ink. Adhere sentiment oval onto scalloped oval, and adhere to card front with dimensionals. Stamp hearts onto puzzle pieces in matching ink. Add puzzle pieces to card front as desired. Cut a piece of Night of Navy twine, separate some of the layers, and tie a bow around one of the puzzle pieces.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed today's project! There are more projects to see, so continue to hop along with us!
