Playing with the 2022-2024 In Colors

I’ve been having fun making a few sampler cards with the new 2022-2024 In Colors from Stampin’ Up! These colors just make me happy, they are so bright and pretty! And they play well together. For these two cards, I featured the In Color Designer Series Paper (DSP). I like to make a few cards with all five colors together, and this is a great way to do that.

My first card is a great card sketch for using DSP scraps. Although I did cut these at 1″ x 4″ to start. This card is also a good way to introduce the 2022-2024 In Color names. From left to right: Sweet Sorbet, Orchid Oasis, Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party and Starry Sky.

I chose Gray Granite for my card base and also cut a card front at 4″ x 5-1/4″ in the same color. I started by playing around with the strips until I found a color combination and a pattern combination that I liked. Then I cut the ends at different angles and slightly different lengths. After gluing them in place, I wrapped the front piece with the Tahitian Tide baker’s twine.
