2 Step Stamping COLORS

[smallcity]

Anyone have suggestions for colors to use with the Stampin Up set Field Flowers? I know i have seen ideas on here, but can't find any.

thanks

I have used blushing bride with calypso coral with amazing results! I also used wisteria wonder and concord crush. So far that's all I've done but I'd like to try more mustard with either saffron or peach parfait! There are a couple of cards in my gallery....

I like to stamp the more solid stamp in a dark color ink that is stamped off once, then do the less solid stamp in that same color without stamping off. I did this in cherry cobbler and it looked great.

I have used Riding Hood Red and Calyso Coral.

I love this card by AndreaEwen because she used Walnut Distress Ink and then More Mustard instead of using two yellows. I think it makes the flower really pop:

You should also check out the Field Flowers gallery under the SU gallery here on SCS...there's a world of eye candy there!

I have a few in my gallery. I think 2 step stamping with flowers really works well with the Dynamic Duos (a darker shade and a lighter shade of the same color). The SU color coach has them all listed so there's no guessing which colors work best with each other.

I would check out the Field Flowers gallery and find some color combos you like that way as well. Have fun creating!

I have to say I'm not usually that 'in to" the two step stamps, they are ok but I don't find myself doing the two step too often

BUT I find this set fan-freaking-tastic! I just LOVE it, it looks so pretty!!!!! I tried to resist getting it as I don't need any more floral sets and I don't tend to use most of the ones I do have but I was just drawn to it!

I only have the SU color coaches for the in colors these last two years. Here where some of there dynamic duo combos-peach parfait and cajun craz, poppy parade and tangerine tango, perfect plum and concord crush, (didn't look impressive), blushing bride and regal rose,
elegant eggplant and wisteria wonder, pool party and island indigo. I didn't inclue the greens-lucky limeade and pear pizzaz and calypso coral didn't have a dynamic duo shown on card. (go figure) I may have to try this with an older set of stamps as I don't have this stamp set. thanks for starting this thread of postings

Thank you for the nice comments regarding my blog...reading this put a smile on my face this morning.

Field Flowers is such a pretty set it's hard to make a bad card with it! Glad to have been an inspiration.
