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. We have so many brand new Designer Series Papers in the 2024 Annual Catalog to play with, and the Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper is a standout. Lemons and orange are fresh and bright – and they are beautifully accented by blue tile patterns. I have reached for these papers a lot and will keep reaching for these brilliant papers over the next year. I’m excited to share a bit more about these papers today.
I often pull my colors right from the Designer Series Papers as a starter. That’s a huge benefit of Stampin’ Up!’s 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 Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper:
This spectacular pack of papers includes Balmy Blue, Boho Blue, Cajun Craze, Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Garden Green, Lemon Lolly, Night of Navy, Old Olive, Peach Pie and Pumpkin Pie. What a gorgeous collection of designs and gorgeous mix of colors!
Inspiration
I have really enjoyed working with the pages in the Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper – how could I not?! What’s not to love? Here are some of my projects with the pages from the papers (you can click on each photo to read the original post about each project):
Today I’m going to share a couple suggestions for pulling together great color combinations with the patterns in the Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper.
Straight from the Papers
These colors are combined from the colors exclusively in the Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper – such a great variety of colors in this pack of papers:
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 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.
I hope you find this helpful, and I hope some of these combinations inspire you. Please save any (or all of these) to Pinterest for future reference.
