Color Coordinates Inspiration!
Hello everyone! It’s Shari here with a new series. You asked for it, and I aim to deliver! I will be giving you Color Coordinates Inspiration samples that you can try.
Todays colors are nautical in a way but young masculine in another. Honestly, I haven’t tried them all together before. It was fun as a personal challenge.

I created a birthday card by using the Hourglass stamps and coordinating dies along with the inspiration inks.
I die cut the Happy Birthday greeting and reassembled it to reform the sentiment. I used a bit of foam tape to lift up the white panel for added dimension.
I’ve also shot a video of how my card came together.

This will be a fantastic series! Can’t wait to see the next one. The ‘happy birthday’ looks as if it has a glossy finish. Or maybe it’s my monitor?? Love the colors you chose. I can see those pennants as party hats! Thanks for sharing.
Love this card! What a great color combo.
Super cute banners. Innovative way to do the sentiment too!
I like the curly look for the baker’s twine and all the layers!
LOVE it…and Pinned it for future reference! I have all of the SSS papers and inks now and they are truly wonderful. They have become my go-to inks and cardstocks!
Love this card! She does such wonderful creations!
I REALLY love how you glued the bits and pieces back into the HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Very creative!!
A fantastic color combo that I would never ever have dreamed up on my own! TFS!
Beautiful color. I’ll put them on my wishlist.

LOVE this colour combination! Fabulous card!
Thank you. Love the banners and the die cut.
Love this- such a fun card. Fascinated to see how you got all the tiny pieces from the die cut in place. This is going to be a really helpful series. Thanks, Shari.
Love these colors. Great card. TFS
Love the idea of the new feature, Shari. Terrific masculine card – love getting ideas for this kind of card.
Love this color combo and the use of the twine is fantastic!
I think this is a series I am going to like!
Wow, gorgeous colours!
I am definately interested in this new series! The colors look great together. I also like how you used the die cut along with the foam pop dots to give it depth.
Great to have color coordinated papers. Takes the guesswork out of making my greeting cards.
I like this series concept. I will definitely use this suggestion on my next project.
Your technique with the Happy Birthday die is quite unique! Thanks for showing us how to do this! I’m going to try that! Beautiful card nonetheless!
Cute card. Love the added touch of curling the twine.
Adorable!!!
~God bless
omg I LOVE IT
I love the color choices and the sentiment is an awesome idea to get the look you gave it. Wonderful. Those inks are great also. Thanks I am always so charged after I see your videos.
Love the color combination!
Shari, Love that you used smoke as your neutral. It pairs well with everything and I love it! Such a pretty card. Thanks so much!
Adorable! Love the colors!
Love this great card! All those cheery colors make me happy!!
Love the colors!
Really great color palette and very pretty card!
Hi Shari! Thank for you for your great videos. I just learned that I can start with a neutral and build up from there. LOL I reach for color first, always. I love these colors and how they complement each other so comfortably. I always love your great card designs.
Love, love, love the die cut sentiment! I have been doing the die cut inlay technique, but here is yet another way to do it! Awesome! Thanks!
Great new feature. Will there be a coordinating challenge? I love how you stuck down the “innies” from your die-cut sentiment!
Love the idea of colour coordinates. Looking forward to the next instalment.
Wonderful card (as usual). Love the curly bakers twine. I’ve done this before with wire but I can’t wait to try it with the twine. The color coordinates series is a great idea!
What a great card and a wonderful color combination!!!
Really like this card….simple stamp set , yet very useful
What a great fun card. Love the twisted twine. Audrey blue is just about my favourite blue ink on the market
I was impressed learning a new technique using the stylus to press the die letters into place. Thanks for the tip; it’ll come in handy next time I use a word die.
Such a pretty card!!! (:
Love the layering, now I will have to try it out.. Thanks for the ideas
Fun colors and I love that happy birthday die!
Love this!
Great Color Combination
