The Refreshed Beauty Designer Series Paper pack showcases bright color combinations. Along with these fresh “happy” colors, the patterns are subtle, making them perfect backgrounds for your cards and scrapbook layouts.
My February Customer Card Kit celebrates this pretty Designer Series Paper pack. As always, there’s a quick and easy card, and one that’s a bit more detailed. They’re both fun to put together and send to someone special.
The second card includes a removable bookmark. It makes an adorable gift for so many occasions, or just to say “hi”.

As a follow-up to yesterday’s post, I’m showcasing another card we made at our crafty gitls group gathering this past week. As I mentioned, we enjoyed ink blending and creating inked backgrounds with stencils.
I completed this card using the Layers of Beauty Bundle and one of the Basic Pattern Decorative Masks. (Stampin’ Up! refers to Stencils as “Masks”).
The Layers of Beauty Bundle includes the stamps, dies, and Layers of Beauty Decorative Masks. This makes it so easy to create the flower cluster.
How To Create This Inked Background
Stamp the large flower cluster using Black Memento Ink.
Choose your color palette. I chose Pool Party, Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock for my flowers.
The Color Coach Color Wheel can help you choose the colors. You can choose a light, medium and dark tone of a color family by looking at the Coloc Wheel.
One of the ladies chose Petal Pink, Flirty Flamingo and Calypso Coral; one chose Lemon Lolly, Daffodil Delight and Crushed Curry. We also had Poppy Parade, Real Red and Cherry Cobbler flowers. They were all stunning!
Here are the color combinations we used:
The “How To” Continued
We inked the leaves on the flowers with Granny Apple Green and Old Olive ink.
There are five Masks you will use to complete the flower cluster.
The Masks are numbered. Starting with “Number 1”, use the lightest color, then work from there.
Use Granny Apple Green, then Old Olive when you get to the leaf Masks.
Once your flowers are inked, the last step is to cut the cluster using the coordinating die in the Bundle.
We used different background Masks for our projects. I used one of the patterns from the Basic Pattern Decorative Masks. Although, no longer available, I thought it worked well with the flowers. I used my White Pigment Ink and a Blending Brush.
One of the ladies used a linear background pattern from the Lovliest Layers Decorative Masks for her card.
Although, not all of the products we used for this card are available, you can create an inked background using a favorite background stamp and ink.
I truly enjoyed sharing this post with you, and hope it inspires you to get out some ink, a blending brush, a stamp or Mask, and create a beautiful and unique card to share.
You will receive everything you need to put the cards together as I’ve designed them except for adhesives. You will receive Dimensionals, if used.
The Kit will include the card bases, layers, die cuts, embellishments, sentiment layers, and envelopes.
I cannot send stamped images, but you will have a sentiment layer you can customize to a stamp you already own, or you can purchase the Reindeer Funb Stamp Set. It’s on page 27 in the September-December, 2024 Mini Catalog.

I needed a few quick and easy thank you cards, and it’s time I took a little break from the wonderful colors of Christmas, so I designed this Clean And Simple card with the help of the Regal Flora Bundle.
I’m sure most of you know, Clean And Simple cards have their unique spot in our paper crafting world. “CAS” cards have lots of white space, few layers, and little or no embellishments.
Inspired by one of the patterns in the Regal Winter Designer Series Paper, I chose to use Night of Navy and Blackberry Bliss for my color combination. I stampes the top and bottom card front elements with Night of Navy ink and die cut them with the matching die.
The center element isn’t stamped. I used the brush end of my Blackberry Bliss and Night of Navy Stamin’ Write Markers to add the ink directly to the stamp, then stamped the image to my cardstock. If you look clopsely, you can see both colors on the image.
I wanted to keep this color palette simple, but you could duplicate this design (which I will definitely do), using a brighter, or more subtle color palette. It would also be fun to give it a Fall theme with oranges, reds, and maybe a little touch of Wild Wheat!
You can experiment with some of the color combinations below. I think a few of these cards in a pretty hand made box, tied with a soft ribbon, would be a beautiful gift.

Below is my color palette.
Below are softer coolor combinations.
And, here are a few bright color combinations.
Don’t forget, today is the last day for the Seasonal Sale. All of the ink pads, cardstock, and markers are on sale. Pick your favorite color palette and take advantage of the discounted prices.
So, find three pretty stamps with coordinating dies, attach them to your card front with Dimensionals, add a sentiment, and create something to share gratitude.
