More Color Combinations from Toil & Trouble

I love to collect and use Stampin’ Up!’s Designer Series Papers. What a great way to find inspiration for our projects! The colors and patterns pair perfectly with other products we love. Over the past several months, I have shared cards that showcase the patterns and colors in Stampin’ Up!’s Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper, a pack of Halloween-themed papers in Stampin’ Up!’s 2018 Holiday Catalog that can be used after Halloween, too. I’m excited to share a bit more about the papers today.

I often pull my colors right from the Designer Series Papers as a starter. That’s a huge benefit of our Designer Series Papers – they are designed with the amazing shades in our color families, so the pair perfectly with our cardstock, inks and accessories. Here’s a look at the patterns and colors in Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper:

How fun are these pages?! They are a perfect mix of spooky images with gorgeous patterns. This pack of papers includes Basic Black, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Early Espresso, Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather, Lemon Lime Twist, Mango Melody, Petal Pink, Pumpkin Pie and Whisper White. Such a powerful collection of colors!

There are so many ways to use these versatile papers, don’t you think? Today I’m going to share a couple more suggestions for pulling these colors right from the patterns in the Designer Series Paper.

Straight from the Papers

These colors are combined from the colors exclusively in this pack of Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper:

Combined with Other Colors

By adding one other color to the shades in these patterns, you can really transform the feel of the Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper.  Here are some color combinations starters that feature two colors from this pack of papers and one color from outside the pack:

By limiting the colors you’ll use in a project (or expanding the colors to those outside a pack of papers), you can really find some beautiful color combinations for our projects.

The Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper is featured in the Toil & Trouble Suite of products in Stampin’ Up!’s 2018 Holiday Catalog. To see all of the items that are part of the suite, click on the image below:
