Sizzix Color Story

I’m back at Create and Craft this Wednesday with some shows on the Sizzix Color Story (or Colour Story for those of us in the UK – it feels odd typing the word color, but Sizzix is a US company so that’s the correct spelling)

The Sizzix Color Story is a whole range of products, following the same colour palette. The first product released in this range was the cardstock pack, and all those colours have since been used for acrylic paints, embossing powders, beads and sequins, felt, sculpting foam, glitter, cards and envelopes etc. This makes your crafting so easy, because it all co-ordinates so well.

In my shows this week, we are going to take a close look at that colour palette, and I’ve put together some swatches so you can see how this one pack of cardstock, can take you through all the season’s and all occasions.

I’ve used just one die set – the Spring Foliage set by Pete Hughes, to create a wreath for each season:

Spring – Cherry Blossom, Limoncello, Ballet Slipper, Arctic Sky, Green Tea
Summer – Primrose, Sorbet, Mint Julep, Mango Tango, Mermaid Kiss
Autumn – Earl Grey, Hibiscus, Agave, Banana Blast, Caramel Toffee
Winter – Green Tea, Hibiscus, Earl Grey, Caramel Toffee, Lush Leaves

You can get such different looks from one die set just by switching up the colours. Pete Hughes put together some fabulous colour swatches – and you can find them on the Sizzix website, along with a video showing them.

So for different occasions, this card set covers those too:

Easter – Cherry Blossom, Primrose, Limoncello, Arctic Sky, Mint Julep
Valentines – Primrose, Limoncello, Cherry Blossom, Hibiscus, Ballet Slipper
Halloween – Cobble Stone, Earl Grey, Lush Leaves, Purple Dusk, Mango Tango
Festive – Hibiscus, Mint Julep, Lush Leaves, Agave, Caramel Toffee

Hope you can join me for the shows, I’ll also try and do a video on this for you, so will pop back to share that later.
