Stamps & Stretchy Pants

Today is really a double whammy! The Color Fusers Team is creating with the NEW In Colors and some of my Artisan Alumni friends are spending a week sharing scrapbooking projects so of course I combined these two concepts into ONE project!

Each month this awesome design team created projects featuring a color scheme, of course this month we are featuring our 5 new In Colors—Parakeet Party, Sweet Sorbet, Orchid Oasis, Starry Sky and Tahitian Tide!

My current favorite new In Color is Starry Sky? What is yours?

This is my project featuring all 5 of the new In Colors—I love how it turned out! Each year I do try and create a scrapbook page that incorporates all the new colors together. Sometimes its a challenge and sometimes its easy and in this case, its easy as these 5 new colors look absolutely spectacular together! What do you think?

I started with a base of Basic White and used Basic white elements along with the new colors. I feel like they really pop on this crisp base. Last summer a couple of my long time bestie’s and I got together for a girls weekend and besties photo shoot. Our awesome photographer is also a friend so of course I had to snap my own girlfriends selfie and I thought it was a fun picture to add to this page. I layered our picture on Basic White, Orchid Oasis and a piece of the Starry Sky DSP from the In Color 6x6 stack.

I have known these amazing gals for over 20 years. It is a blessing to have such fantastic lifelong friends!

I mashed up a whole bunch of products on this page! That is my favorite thing to do! I used the For the Record stamp set, Summer Shadows Dies, Shaded Summer stamp set, Stylish Shapes Dies and the Amazing Thanks Dies. I even ran the Orchid Oasis card stock through the TImber 3D folder.

Each row of color has a stamped and die cut element to bring it to life along with some of the Matte In Color dots. And each row of color is working to build the story of this page, starting with the sentiment ‘Love You, Friend’.

and ending with “For the Record, I really like you, You’re Awesome and You’re Amazing”. I love taking a bunch of individual sentiments and building them into a broader more encompassing phrase.

I can’t wait to see what every one else on the Color Fusers team has created this month using one or all of the new In Colors—and if you are following along with #sevendaysofscrapbooking then you know you are going to see some amazing projects shared today!
