Last week’s Card & Cuppa project was not only my annual ‘Inspired by Wimbledon’ project. It was also a great oppotunity to introduce a new In Color.

Some of you will have seen Darling Duckling briefly in a project from my June Monthly Class. But today I’m introducing you to Darling Duckling in a bit more detail.
In my ‘Inspired by Wimbledon’ projects, I tend to use green, yellow and purple, along with white. This project uses Lemon Lime Twist, Darling Duckling and Berry Burst (not quite purple!).
The leaves from the Textured Notes Stamp Set, part of the Online Exclusives range, are stamped around the edges. Flowers from the Bee My Valentine Stamp Set are then stamped second generation.
Using a Darling Duckling Blender Pen, the centre of the flowers are coloured, before adding a touch of Wink of Stella too.
Then, a length of White Woven Ribbon is also coloured using the same Blender Pen to allow everything to coordinate.

A sentiment from the Tags of Thanks Stamp Set is stamped onto a circle (this represents a tennis ball!) and layered too. The Stamp Set, Ribbon and Circle Punches are all from the Online Exclusives range.
Everything was then assembled with some Brass Butterflies adding a finishing touch to the summer feel of the project.

For information, the picture below shows how Darling Duckling compares to other colours in the current Stampin’ Up! range.
