Welcome to week two of our Art With Heart 2024-25 Colour Creations blog hop!
Today we’re featuring another of the new 2024-26 In Colors: Petunia Pop. I’ve created this graphic to show how Petunia Pop compares to the current pink/purple colours in the Stampin Up! colour range.
The Country Woods Suite is so stunning and versatile I’ve decided to use it for the first five weeks of our blog hop as we showcase the five new 2024-26 In Colors.
This week, I’ve used the Country Woods Designer Series Paper and both the Country Birdhouse Dies and the Country Flowers Dies. I was inspired by this pattern in the Designer Series Paper.
I used my Stampin’ Blends to colour a different design from the Country Woods Designer Series Paper to create different coloured wood panels for my birdhouse.
I’ve also stamped the “Happy birthday” sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set directly onto this DSP.
I love this colour combination of Petunia Pop, Misty Moonlight, Pool Party, Gray Granite, Basic Black and Basic White!
TIP – to define the wood panels and make this DSP look more like the original DSP design that inspired this card I used a Stampin’ Marker in Basic Black and a ruler to draw black lines between each of the colours.
I used a different DSP pattern for the base of the card – you can see it under the card in this photo below. The Basic Black circle forming the opening of the birdhouse is from the Bright Skies Dies.
Adhesive-backed Fresh Freesia and Misty Moonlight gems from the Tinsel Gems Three-Pack add the final touch of bling!
Now it’s time to hop in over to our next participant, the lovely Kate Morgan – I can’t wait to see what Kate has made this week!

Welcome to week one of our Art With Heart 2024-25 Colour Creations blog hop!
Today the new 2024-25 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue goes live and we’re kicking off our 2024-25 blog hop with the five new 2024-26 In Colors: Peach Pie, Petunia Pop, Pretty in Pink, Shy Shamrock and Summer Splash.
Our colour for Week One is Peach Pie. I’ve created this graphic to show how it compares to the current orange/pink/peach colours in the Stampin Up! colour range.
I’ve paired Peach Pie with Basic Black, Old Olive, Basic White and a new Basics colour called Basic Beige.
My favourite suite in the new Annual Catalogue is the Country Woods Suite Collection.
I’ve used two of the stamp sets from this suite for my card tonight –Country Flowers and Country Birdhouse – as well as the Eyelet embossing folder on my Peach Pie card.
Here’s a close up of the embossed cardstock – swoon! I think this is one of the prettiest embossing folders we have ever had.
The striped DSP down the left side of the card is from the 2024–2026 In Color 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm) Designer Series Paper that all new demonstrators joining in May 2024 will receive for free. And the brand new 2024–2026 In Color Shimmer Gems complete my card!
Now it’s time to hop in over to our next participant, the lovely Rosa Leyden – I can’t wait to see what Rosa has made this week!

Welcome to week fifty of our Art With Heart 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop, the last one for the year before we start again next Wednesday night with our 2024-25 blog hop!
Tahitian Tide, one of the 2022-24 InColors is retiring on 31st April. I’ve paired it with Pumpkin Pie and used the adorable Birds Eye View stamp set (thankfully, this set is carrying over) to make two cards for this week.
As the Birds Eye View stamp set does not have any sentiments I’ve used sentiments from the Happy Labels stamp set. This stamp set is retiring on 31st April and it is massively reduced from $42 to $16.80 – well worth snapping up at this price!
I didn’t have any Tahitian Tide DSP left so I used my Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blends to colour black and white patterns from both the Rock & Roll Designer Series Paper and the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper.
Card one features the Rock & Roll Designer Series Paper coloured with the dark Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blend and the spotted Pumpkin Pie design from the Brights Designer Series Paper.
The bird was coloured in using light and dark Tahitian Tide, Pumpkin Pie and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends. I love these three colours together!
For both cards, the embossing folders used on the top layer of Basic White Cardstock are from the Basics embossing folders, an online only exclusive that has three different folders.
And the fronds behind the bird are die cut using the Textured Floral dies.
For card two I’ve coloured the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper using my light Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blend and used another design from the Pumpkin Pie DSP in the Brights Designer Series Paper collection.
This bird was also coloured in using light and dark Tahitian Tide, Pumpkin Pie and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends.
This bird is sitting on a frond from the Textured Floral dies.
Balmy Blue Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins, Pumpkin Pie Adhesive-Backed Shiny Sequins and a simple bow of linen thread complete each card.
Now it’s time to hop in over to our next participant, the lovely Christine Blain – I can’t wait to see what Christine has made this week!

We’ll be back next Wednesday, 1st May, when the new 2024-25 Annual Catalogue goes live. Our first colour for the AWH Colour Creations 2024-25 blog is Peach Pie, one of the new InColors.
Welcome to week forty-nine of our Art With Heart 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop – only one more week to go before we start again with our 2024-25 blog hop!
Our colour this week is Sweet Sorbet and. I’ve used the gorgeous Enduring Beauty Bundle to make a birthday card.
The Enduring Beauty Bundle includes the Enduring Beauty Stamp Set, the Enduring Beauty Dies, and the Enduring Beauty Decorative Masks. These are easy to line up with the notches on the masks. I’ve used blending brushes to add the layers of colour.
The flowers and leaves are coloured in Sweet Sorbet and Granny Apple Green.
The Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder is retiring soon – I’ve embossed the vellum layer with this gorgeous embossing folder. I accidentally trimmed it a bit short after embossing and I didn’t have enough vellum left to make another layer, however the recipient of the card didn’t seem to mind!
The Pansy Patch stamp set has stunning mixed font sentiments and is retiring soon as well.
I stamped the front sentiment in versmark and heat embossed it in white.
And used another sentiment from Pansy Patch for the inside of my card as well.
Now it’s time to hop in over to our next participant, the lovely Di Furniss. I can’t wait to see what Di has made this week!

Welcome to week forty-eight of our Art With Heart 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop – only two weeks to go!
Our colour this week is Starry Sky, one of the 2022-24 In Colors that is about to retire. I’ve paired it with another retiring 2022-24 In Color, Orchid Oasis to make a turtle birthday card.
This is simple-to-make monochromatic card achieves its visual interest thanks to the incredible Rays Of Light stamp set that is also about to retire. I’m really going to miss this background stamp.
Another stamp about to retire is the Sending Smiles Stamp set, which I’ve used to stamp the birthday sentiment. Luckily the reversible Sea Turtle stamp set is carrying over to the new catalogue.
After stamping the Rays of Light stamp in Starry Sky I used a blending brush to add a touch of Orchid Oasis around the border.
The reversible turtle was stamped in both Starry Sky and Orchid Oasis before being fussy cut and adhered to the Rays of Light layer with dimensionals.
The sentiment was heat embossed with white embossing powder.
Shock, horror, I’ve actually remembered to stamp the inside of my card as well!
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Rachel Palmieri. I can’t wait to see what Rachel has made this week!
