More Color Combinations with Birthday Bonanza

Happy Leap Year! I hadn’t planned anything for this year’s bonus day, so I pulled together a super-fun post with the Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper. Yay!

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. Since the super-fun, birthday-themed Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper debuted with Stampin’ Up!’s January – June 2020 Mini Catalog, I have shared several projects that showcase different pages in this pack of papers. I’m excited to share a bit more about this pack of 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 the Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper:

Balloons and candles are fun, but bold stripes and patterned colors can be just as useful. This pack of papers includes Basic Black, Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Grapefruit Grove, Mango Melody, Smoky Slate, Terracotta Tile and Whisper White.

Inspiration

I’ve used the Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Papers several times in the short time it’s been available to us – how could I not?! Here are some of my projects with the pages from Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper (you can click on each photo to read the original post about each project):

There are so many fun pages in this pack of papers. They can be really fun to work with – especially when you add other colors to the colors found in the paper.  Today I’m going to share a couple more suggestions for pulling these colors right from the patterns in the Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper.

Straight from the Papers

These colors are combined from the colors exclusively in this pack of the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper:

Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Daffodil Delight, Grapefruit Grove, Terracotta Tile  Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Daffodil Delight, Terracotta Tile, Bermuda BayStampin Up! Color Inspiration - Coastal Cabana, Mango Melody, Basic Black

Combined with Other Colors

By adding one other color to the shades in these papers, you can really transform the feel of the pages – or create all new combinations with inspiration from the paper. Here are some color combinations starters that feature two colors from this pack of papers and one color from outside the pack:

Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Crumb Cake, Terracotta Tile, Shaded Spruce Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana, Gorgeous Grape Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Purple Posy, Grapefruit Grove, Smoky Slate

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.

I hope you find this helpful, I and I hope some of these combinations inspire you.  Please save any (or all of these) to Pinterest for future reference. To follow me on Pinterest, please click here: follow me on Pinterest.

  1. fun and fresh color combinations and fabulous inspiration.

  2. Thanks Brian! Today is my father-in-law’s “22nd” birthday and have to make a card!

  3. As I always find that the “OTHER SIDE” of the paper is the pleasant surprise and very versatile . I will put in a vote for Pumpkin Pie as another option color . I had a PP card base that I tried with the balloon print and it works !!
    This was fun ! You are talking to me with DSP and COLORS !

  4. I always save your color combinations for future reference. They are easy to find and I usually find one that works for the project I’m making. Enjoy your Leap Year day!

  5. I really like the last card with the candles and the lion.
