More Color Combinations with Gingerbread & Peppermint 6″ x 6″ 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 Gingerbread & Peppermint 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper first became available in Stampin’ Up!’s July-December 2021 Mini Catalog, I have reached for it often. The fun images and patterns lend themselves to Christmas project, and many of the designs work outside of Christmas, too! 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 Gingerbread & Peppermint 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper:

Inspiration

I have really enjoyed working with these designs. 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 Gingerbread & Peppermint 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (you can click on each photo to read the original post about each project):

Gingerbread & Peppermint, Gingerbread Dies, Words of Cheer, Stampin Up!, Brian King Counting Sheep, Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper, Stampin Up!, Brian King Deer Builder Punch, Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper, Stampin Up!, Brian King, Christmas thank you cardIt’s easy to incorporate these pages into your projects because the pages 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 Gingerbread & Peppermint 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper.

Straight from the Papers

These colors are combined from the colors exclusively in this pack of the Gingerbread & Peppermint 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper – such a sophisticated variety of colors in this pack of papers:

Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Cinnamon Cider, Real Red, Old Olive Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Old Olive, Cinnamon Cider, Early Espresso Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Real Red, Old Olive, Early Espresso

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 - Pool Party, Real Red, Early Espresso Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Old Olive, Cinnamon Cider, Cajun Craze Stampin Up! Color Inspiration - Pale Papaya, Cinnamon Cider, 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.
