Summer Splash birthday card

Hello! I have mentioned many times that one of my favourite things about Stampin’ Up! products is the colour coordination. It makes my life so much easier! I know that the card, paper, ink, ribbon and embellishments will always work together perfectly on my cards. And the 2024-2026 In Colors are no exception. To illustrate this, I’ve made a Summer Splash birthday card…

This is such a beautiful colour, although I’m not sure my photographs do it justice. You really need to see it up close and personal. We don’t have too much longer to wait as this and all the other new products from the May 2024 to April 2025 Annual Catalogue will be available to purchase from 1 May 2024 – hurrah! Although, I must admit that my shopping list is already growing, the more I study this catalogue.

Anyway, back to my Summer Splash birthday card. I have featured the In Colors 6″ x 6″ designer series paper pack, with that beautiful flowers and leaves design. But I also snuck in a tiny piece of the striped design on the reverse, just above the perfectly coordinating ribbon…

The sentiment was stamped with Summer Splash ink onto Basic White card. This sentiment is from the Unbounded Love stamp set. I cut the Basic White card with one of the Unbounded Love dies and then added that lovely little frame thanks to another die from the set and some Summer Splash card. The leaves die cuts were also created with dies from the same set. As you can see, the sentiment was popped up with dimensionals.

And to complete the marvellous colour coordination I added some In Color Shimmer gems too, they really do catch the light and I love the shimmer and shine!

Every time I’ve used these 2024-2026 In Colors I’ve changed my mind on my favourite colour. For today at least, Summer Splash has my vote. I hope you like it as much as I do.
