Stampin' Up! Shy Shamrock

 

 

Welcome to a Week 4 of the Colour Creations Showcase blog hop. This week we continue our journey through the New In Colours for 2024-26 Stampin' Up!, working in alphabetical order. This week our feature colour is  the vibrant Shy Shamrock. A lovely green that sits between Shaded Spruce and Pretty Peacock on the Stampin' Up! Colour Wheel.


 

The Attention Shoppers bundle is another new one in the current catalogue and the feature for this week's card. This bundle was demonstrated at the Onstage event in March and it was that demonstration that convinced me to add the bundle to my collection. It's a fun bundle that can be used for lots of different occasions.

This week I have used it to make a card for my son and his girlfriend who are soon to move into their first home together. It conjures up ideas of gifts of new house plants and bottle of wine for their house warming.


 A piece of white card that has been embossed using the Dashing Designs embossing folder has been mounted onto a piece of In Colour Designer Series Paper.

The plants and bottle have been stamped in Black Memento Ink and then coloured using Shy Shamrock, Copper Clay and Peach Pie Stampin' Blends and die cut using dies from the Attention Shoppers dies.


The shopping trolley has been die cut using Silver Foil and the dies from the Attention Shoppers dies. To make it easier to adhere to the card, adhesive sheet was attached to the foil before die cutting. 

The sentiment is from Translucent Florals and has been white embossed onto Shy Shamrock card. A Stylish Shapes was used to die cut the sentiment. 


The words "New Home"have been die cut using Shy Shamrock card and the Mini Alphabet Dies. The wine bottles have been die cut using In Colour DSP and the die from the Attention Shoppers dies.

Next in tonight's blog hop is the talented  Ros Davidson. Ros love to use the Colour Coach for her creations so it is always great to see what she comes up with.

  4. Theresa your card is perfect for celebrating your son and his partner's purchase of their first home. I was late to seeing the value of this set but am onboard now and your card has inspired me to use it in yet another way.

  5. You’ve incorporated some really fun details into your card design, T. Shy Shamrock is a great colour to use for plants and bottles - good thinking! I love the embossed background, and the sweet sentiment banner. The decorated envelope is cute, too. I’m sure Dan and Ash will love their personalised card.

  6. Like you, I was also sold on Attention Shopper after the onstage demo.Your card is a very clever use of items to portray “new home” and a big congratulations to the new home owners. ❤️
