Wacky Watercooler First Anniversary Blog Hop

http://wackywatercoolerstamping.blogspot.com/2014/07/the-wacky-watercooler-first-anniversary.html

Wow!  It's hard to believe a whole year has passed since the very first Wacky Watercooler Blog Hop.  I'm thrilled to be a part of the celebration.  You've arrived here from Deborah Smart's blog and her great projects.  Our focus for this hop was the new 2014-2016 In Colors and the new Designer Series Papers.  You do know there is a special on this month, right?  It's a Buy 3, Get 1 Free.  You'll definitely want to check that out!

My order didn't get here in time for me to use the new Designer Series Papers I ordered, so I used papers from the new Moonlight Designer Series Paper Stack, which is not part of the above mentioned special.  Each card I made does show off the new 2014-2016 In Colors, which are totally fabulous.  I can't get enough of them!

One of the newest stamp sets I've purchased is the Kinda Eclectic and I am loving it.  Paired with our new 2014-2016 In Colors it makes for a very pretty card.  Well, at least I think so.  :-)


Stamp Sets:  Kinda Eclectic, Bloom with Hope; Inks:  Hello Honey, Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss, Smoky Slate; Card Stock:  Wild Wasabi, Whisper White; Accessories & Tools:  Modern Label Punch, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Dimensionals
All Stampin' Up!® Product

For the first time that I can remember, I can say I actually like the color orange.  Tangelo Twist just seems to jump out at me and force me to like it.  I saw a similar card in my browsing but the person didn't have a watermark so I don't who to give credit to but I do thank them for sharing it.  If you know who it is, please let me know so I can give proper credit.  The only differences in my card from the original is the orientation and the sentiment. 


Stamp Set:  Trust God; Ink:  VersaMark Watermark; Card Stock:  Tangelo Twist, Blackberry Bliss, Lost Lagoon, Mossy Meadow, Whisper White, Moonlight Designer Series Paper Stack; Accessories & Tools:  Pansy Punch, Petite Petals Punch, Decorative Label Punch, Bird Builder Punch, Owl Builder Punch, White Embossing Powder, Mini Glue Dots, Dimensionals

My third card is an anniversary one to celebrate our year of Wacky Watercooler blog hops.  I am loving the richness of those new In Colors!  Blackberry Bliss and Hello Honey look so well together.  Don't you think so?


Stamp Sets:  Flower Shop, Teeny Tiny Wishes; Inks:  Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey; Card Stock:  Hello Honey, Sahara Sand, Mossy Meadow, Whisper White, Moonlight Designer Series Paper Stack; Accessories & Tools:  Pansy Punch, Bird Builder Punch, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Dimensionals

  4. I, too, love all the new In-Colours - although I have yet to use the Tangelo Twist. It looks great with the Blackberry Bliss and Lost Lagoon flowers.
