Welcome to the first Colour Creations Instagram Hop for 2026/27. We will start at the beginning of the alphabet again shortly but before that, we will introduce the new 2026-2028 In Color™ family!
You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.
But first, have you noticed that the launch has begun with the new 2026 May-August Mini catalogue?!! I am loving the updated layout of this gorgeous catalogue and Stampin’ Up! have listened and streamlined with 3 Mini catalogues through out the year; January to April, May to August & September to December! Each one will have loads of new and exciting product as well as all the essentials in one place. Be sure to check the online store each month for new kits, online exclusives and the Product of the Month for qualifying orders.

Week 1 – Barely Blush
This week we feature our 1st new In Color™ Barely Blush and what a beautiful soft pink it is and it may just be my favourite of the new colours. I know this is going to be a popular colour in my craft room!
I have used my card sketch #12 for this layout. This is a fun one to display some pretty papers around a feature image.
On a Thick White card base is a layer of Barely Blush cardstock. The Bloom Boutique Specialty DSP with specialty gold foiling, features around the edges with piece of Barely Blush Sunset Vellum Specialty paper in the centre. The feature image [Heirloom Boutique] is stamped onto Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper in the new Basic Black Hybrid ink. This ink can be used for both Alcohol Markers and Water colouring! I have used the Water Painters with Barely Blush, Golden Glow & Peaceful Pine inks.
The stamped image is die cut with the coordinating Heirloom Boutique dies and added it on Dimensionals. Some Wink of Stella was added for more shine! Not sure if you can see that in the photo. Some 2026-2028 In Color™ Dots embellishments finish my project. On the envelope and inside the card, I’ve stamped one of the larger flowers in Barely Blush ink.
Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join us again when we embark on the new 2026-2028 In Color, Crisp Cantaloupe.
Be sure to add the Product of the Month (POM) for $9 when you add $125+ in product to your cart.
