Color Fusers--July--Hello Summer!

/

Hello friends! It is OFFICIALLY SUMMER—Whoo Hoo! I love summer time, I love to water my flowers and I see it as a personal challenge to keep them alive ALL season long, which is a challenge as I do not have a green thumb. Our Color Fusers Blog Hop this month is featuring these 3 colors:

And because I have flowers on the brain, I knew that I had to incorporate the new Paper Florist Dies into my design. I also knew that I wanted to create a scrapbook page with one of my favorite pictures taken on the Norway trip. So here you go!

This awesome picture was taken in Stavanger, Norway

I decided to use Azure Afternoon as my base. Now if you have been following me on Instagram I have made a couple of comments about how this is currently my new favorite blue! I think it looks great paired with two classics—Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie. All three of these colors are also in the Brights Family as well.

The main sentiment on this page is from the Good Feelings stamp set and I felt it was appropriate because none of us live in the same area in the world. Kylie and Bruno on the right, live in Australia and Alanna and her family, while fellow Canadians, live a couple provinces away from me. So it is true, I do send sunshine and good feelings to all of my friends no matter where they are :)

I used Designer Series Paper from the Bright & Beautiful and the Brights 6x6 stack to add interest to my page along with a square ran through the new Exposed Brick 3D folder and a square stamped with hearts from the Little Monkey Stamp set.

The flowers are all from the amazing Paper Florist Dies which you need to serious #addtocart if you have not already!

 

I found a bunch of single words to add to my page such as ‘Love’ which is from the Seasonal Branches stamp set. A few Tinsel Gems and some Bakers Twine finished off this little vignette.

The cute tag and fringe are from the Beautiful Balloons dies. I love this die set and I thought they made the perfect addition to this layout. I added some of the new white Herringbone Ribbon through the tag and you can find ‘Hello, friend’ in the Inked & Tiled stamp set. The white sequins are from the Adhesive-Backed Sequins Trio and just added a little something to this area.

This page is really quite eclectic, which is what I love about Stampin’ Up! I really disagree with those who say you cannot scrapbook with our products. YES YOU CAN!

May is die cut using the Alphabet A la Mode dies and added using the Foam Adhesive Sheets. Look how awesome the Exposed Brick folder looks beside it! This new folder is definitely a must have.

I can’t wait to see what the rest of the team has designed with these three amazing colors—Azure Afternoon, Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie. I know you will be inspired and if you haven’t purchased Azure Afternoon yet, then I encourage you to give it a go. It is a really lovely blue.
