More Color Combinations with Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper

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 Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper first became available in Stampin’ Up!’s 2021 Annual Catalog, I have reached for it often. The rich, regal tones lend themselves to beautiful, Fall project, and the bright tones make the papers suitable for Spring projects, too! Such a versatile pack of papers – the pages are filled with beautiful patterns and images from nature. 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 Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper:

Inspiration

I have loved working with this paper. I love the colors and patterns – a great mix for great papers – and have several ideas to use some of the other pages. Here are some of my projects with the pages from the Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper (you can click on each photo to read the original post about each project):

It’s easy to incorporate these pages into your projects because the gorgeous prints are so versatile. 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 Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper.

Straight from the Papers

These colors are combined from the colors exclusively in this pack of the Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper – such a sophisticated variety of colors in this pack of papers:

Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Cinnamon Cider, Merry Merlot, Early Espresso Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Misty Moonlight, Cinnamon Cider, Early Espresso Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Bumblebee, Mossy Meadow, Night of Navy

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 - Pale Papaya, Cinnamon Cider, Misty Moonlight Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Bumblebee, Old Olive, Poppy Parade Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Soft Succulent, Cajun Craze, Early Espresso

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.
