We have five brand-new colors about to debut in my Stampin' Up! world on May 3. Here's a little sneak peek at one of them - Orchid Oasis!
I bought this beautiful watercolor at a craft show recently. The artist, Caren Gagne, had mounted it on an ivory card base. I fell in love with her artwork, but I thought I could make it even better by changing it to a different card base. I wish I had taken a photo of how it looked originally to illustrate what a difference the Orchid Oasis cardstock made. Caren's artwork absolutely pops on this color!
For the inside I used images from an older set called Waterfront and stamped them in Orchid Oasis (stamped off once) and Pumpkin Pie. The sailboat was stamped in black & die-cut. After gluing it in place, I used Blender Pens with Orchid Oasis & Pumpkin Pie to color the white areas on the die-cut and make it blend nicely into the background.
Orchid Oasis will be available to purchase on May 3, along with 4 other fabulous new colors - Sweet Sorbet, Parakeet Party, Tahitian Tide & Starry Sky!
Thanks for looking today! Here are some of the products I used on this
card that are currently available:
