Welcome to the January Color Fusers blog hop! Today I am sharing a gorgeous project created with items included in the 2026 Virtual Card Making Retreat kit, including the stamp set and Forever Florals Dies. Thanks for hopping with us!

The Color Fusers are a group of creative demonstrators from around the world that share projects made with the same color challenge. We hop the first Monday of each month. I’m happy you’re hopping along with us today to see what we have to share, and hope you accept the challenge to create a project of your own – or CASE one of us!
This month’s color challenge includes Petal Pink, Lost Lagoon and Gold Foil. This combination is soft, feminine and so beautiful.

There’s a lot of texture built into this project by layering. I started with an embossed layer using the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder. I then added a die cut layer using the Forever Florals Die Set. The sentiment is stamped on a layered label with flower bud die cuts.
I pulled out stamps and dies from the 2026 Virtual Card Making Retreat kit. It’s fabulous, and even though the retreat isn’t until later this month, I couldn’t wait to use these items. There’s still kits left if you would like to join that event! It’s the only way to get this exclusive stamp set. And the Forever Florals Bundle will be available later this year, or you can get it now in this kit!

I love how easy these stamps and dies were to create with! There’s even a little something a little fun stamped on the inside.
Virtual Cardmaking Retreat
Stampin’ up is offering a Virtual Cardmaking Retreat later this month. It is going to be fabulous!! We will create 15 projects using the all inclusive kit that is available now in the online store.
