Inspire Create Share Blog Hop: Farewell 2024-2026 In Colors
Hi Crafty Friends!
Welcome to the Inspire Create Share Blog Hop! This month, we’re saying farewell to the 2024–2026 In Colors. I’m definitely sad to see a couple of these colors go—but saying goodbye to the old always makes room for something new.
For today’s post, I started with a simple goal: create one card using all five retiring In Colors. But, as often happens in my craft room, one idea led to another… and before I knew it, I had two cards to share! And honestly, I’m not complaining—these colors are just too pretty not to enjoy a little extra before they retire.
For the first card, I created a bold background using strips of In Color cardstock. This is such an easy way to showcase multiple colors at once! I adhered the strips to a piece of lightweight copy paper, then embossed the panel using the Beautiful Pattern 3D Embossing Folder for added texture. For the second card, I used strips of the In Color Designer Series Paper for a slightly different look.
The layered die-cut frame from the Scalloped Wishes Bundle pulls everything together and creates the perfect focal point for the sentiment. One card has a softer, more floral feel, while the other is brighter and a bit more playful—especially with that fun dragonfly accent.
To finish the cards, I added a few die-cut elements from the bundle and coordinating embellishments for just a touch of sparkle. These designs are a great reminder that you don’t need complicated techniques to create something eye-catching—sometimes it’s all about letting the colors shine!
If these In Colors are on your favorites list, now is the time to grab them before they’re gone. I’m so glad I took the time to play with all five… even if it turned into two cards instead of one!
Happy Stampin'!
