November Color Fuser Blog Hop

in 12 weeks of Christmas, Cardmaking on 11/04/24

Hello Crafters, Bonjour!

It’s the first Monday of the Month!  Do you know what this means? Another Color Fuser Blog Hop! I am excited about our November Color Fuser Blog Hop… This month brings a new color combination.  We are featuring more “cool tones”.   Designers can use a combination of Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia and Azure Afternoon for their project.  Blue is my favourite color but I must admit that I don’t reach out for Azure Afternoon a lot.  Which is kind of surprising… As soon as I saw this color combination, I thought of colorful snowflakes and when blending these colors onto cardstock, it reminded me of cotton candy!  Yummy!

Hop around the world with our group of talented demonstrators.   We’ve created designs from our November Color Challenge using Stampin’up! Colors.

You may have just arrived here from my lovely friend Tami Hewlett from the USA.   I totally love her creation for today’s challenge.   At the bottom of the page there is Color Fuser Badge to guide you to the next blog.

Stamps and Dies of Choice for my card:  One Of A Kind Bundle + Frozen Edges Bundle + Falling Snow Stamp Set

The One of a Kind Bundle is on page 45 of the Mini Catalogue.  I just love snowflakes.  I can never have enough stamp sets that include snowflakes.  Snowflakes are all different and beautiful. I also used the dies from the Frozen Edges Bundle that is on page 50 of the Mini Catalogue.  I wanted to have a size variety of snowflakes.  The background also features the Falling Snow Stamp Set.  Let’s just say, it’s a card with a galore of snowflakes…

12 weeks of Christmas, week 6:  Day one of Snowflake Galore

You can also find the two bundles in French:  Jamais Deux Pareils et Lot Bordures Gelées (images are posted at the Bottom of the page for my online store)

Added the card made on today’s Facebook Live with Ribbon:

Color Combination: 

Berry Burst
Fresh Freesia
Azure Afternoon

Instructions: 

  • Cut a 4 1/4″ x 11 piece of Basic White cardstock and score at 5 1/2″
  • Cut a piece of 4″ x 5 1/4 ” Basic White cardstock
  • Using Versamark, stamp the Falling Snow image onto the Basic White Piece of cardstock and add WOW White Embossing Powder and heat with Heat Tool
  • Using Blending Brushes add Fresh Freesia, Berry Burst and Azure Afternoon inks  onto a piece of Thick Basic White Cardstock
  • Add water specs using a Water Painter Brush
  • Die cut snowflake pieces from the One of a Kind Dies and the Frozen Edge Dies, add to card
  • Stamp greeting with Versamark onto Fresh Freesia Cardstock, add WOW White Embossing Powder and heat with Heat Tool
  • Embellish with Iridescent Faceted Gems

To step it up:   Add some coordinating projects with this beautiful card.  The possibilities are endless when you start designer with the bundle. I’m obsessed at making mini cards and decorating mini envelops.  These mini cards are so fun to make and they are amazing if you are a beginner stamper.

Next on the hop is my talented friend Melanie Hockin I adore her creation.  Click on the Blog Badge below to get to her blog.
