Goodbye Pretty Peacock

On March 24th the list of retiring products from the current Annual Catalogue will be released! And when that happens the 2019-2021 In Colours won’t last very long. So I’m featuring one of the retiring In Colours each week. Last week it was Terracotta Tile. This week it’s time to say goodbye Pretty Peacock.

For this card I decided to go monochromatic to really show off the colour. And so of course I went with Basic White for the card base. The images came from the Tasteful Touches stamp set. I really like the background the different images create. To get the monochromatic effect I stamped with Pretty Peacock ink onto Pretty Peacock cardstock. The blooms I stamped on Basic White and then cut out.

The phrase for this card came from the Friends are like Seashells stamp set. This set is going to become a favourite for sure! I love all the images and the phrases are so versatile. I stamped the phrase in Pretty Peacock, of course. And then cut it out using one of the Stitched Nested Labels dies. Then I popped up the phrase and the two flowers with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I felt like the card still needed a little something… which in my case usually means adding some bling. So to finish it off I added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel and some Wink of Stella to the feathers and centres of the flowers. Here’s the card…

With Stampin’ Up! switching up their release dates for catalogues this feels so soon. I can’t believe that it’s almost time to say goodbye Pretty Peacock and 2019-2021 In Colours.

If you live in Canada and want to stock up on the 2019-2021 In Colour products I don’t suggest you wait until March 24th. These products will sell out quickly and some of them are already starting to run low. So use my link to stock up now!
