That’s why they call it the Blues

Welcome to InKing Royalty’s July Blog Hop! We are embracing some (or all) of Stampin’ Up!’s beautiful blues for today’s hop – there are so many great ways to showcase the blues in the current color families! We are excited to share our creations and hope you love them! After you read my post, I hope hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.

I’m so glad to be singing the blues today with you. The two blues I chose to feature are Boho Blue and Night of Navy. Of course, I turned to the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper for Inspiration.

I just love how these 2 blues work so well with one another! The card base is Night of Navy as well as the sentiment strip. The doily is made using the Delightful Doily Hybrid Embossing Folder. I embossed a 4×4 in. piece of Boho Blue from the 2023-2025 In Color Luster Specialty Paper. This paper just sparkles in a way you just can’t see from my photo. Take my word for it, you NEED this paper! I then used the coordinating die to cut my doily out. After running it through my die cut machine a couple of times, it turned out beautifully. I wanted a Night of Navy background so that the die cut doily would be more distinct. I took a 4×4 piece of Night of Navy and cut it with the outline die, then adhered it to the back of the Boho Blue Doily. I embossed the sentiment from Go To Greetings in white. I finished the card with 2 dots from the 2023-2025 In Color Dots.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you’ll hop along to the next stop on the blog hop, Sheryl Abernathy at Elegant Sentiments. There’s lots of inspiration to be found in this group – and you don’t want to miss it!

Have fun hopping!
