Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #466 – Cheers & Sips Colour Challenge

Hello crafty friends!
I’m so excited to share this cheerful creation for this week’s Hand Stamped Sentiments Colour Challenge #466, featuring the fun trio:

I used the Cheers & Sips stamp set and dies—perfect for summer celebrations, patio parties, or just spreading sunshine in an envelope!

🍹 Design Details:

  • Stamp Set & Dies: Cheers & Sips bundle
  • Designer Series Paper: Celebratory Sips DSP (fussy cut the drink from the DSP)
  • Cardstock Colours: Strawberry Slush base, accent layer in Coastal Cabana
  • Embossing Folder: Glass & Gardens (adds perfect subtle texture behind the drinks)
  • Sentiment Label: Stylish Shapes Dies
  • Embellishments: 2025–2027 In Color Flat Pearls (in Strawberry Slush)

💡 Tips & Tricks:

🎨 DSP Hack:
I coloured right on the Cloud Cover umbrella print from the DSP using a Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blend—it helped balance the colour challenge beautifully and brought new life to a neutral element!

🖌️ Embossing Tip:
Use the Glass & Gardens Embossing Folder to add just the right amount of elegant texture—perfect for grounding bold images like these sassy summer sips.

✨ Colour Balance:
Keep bright combos cohesive by repeating each colour in multiple places—like background layers, embellishments, and accents—without overwhelming the eye.

Here is a full list of the supplies I used:
