I've been a Stampin' Up! demonstrator for 17 years. During that time, I have literally made hundreds of cards. Despite that number, I still occasionally struggle trying to find the right color combination to use or deciding which designer series paper (DSP) goes well with which stamp set. I love that Stampin' Up! has taken all of the guesswork out of that for me by designing beautiful suites where all of the products coordinate and work well together.
As you've seen over my last couple of posts, I've featured a few of those beautiful suites from the new catalog. Today's post is no exception. The card I made today uses the gorgeous Tea Room Suite.
For the background, I stamped the floral image from the Time for Tea stamp set in Pool Party ink on Pool Party card stock. I did the same for the tea cup image and then cut it out using the Spot of Tea framelits. I chose the color scheme for the rest of the card from the Tea Room DSP. There was a splash of Calypso Coral in the piece of DSP I used, so I cut out the scalloped shape using Calypso Coral card stock. I wanted to add a third color so I chose Rich Razzleberry from the suite. I added it as a layer behind the DSP and then stamped my sentiment in Rich Razzleberry ink to tie the two together.
I used the same colors and DSP for the inside of the card. I finished the inside off by stamping the flourish image from the stamp set three times. This card came together rather quickly because I let Stampin' Up! help with the color scheme.
Try it! Look through the catalog and decide which one of the suites you'd like to get, buy it, and start creating beautiful projects in no time.
