TIME FOR THE LATEST COLOUR INKSPIRATION CHALLENGE

This challenge introduces the new 2024-2026 In Colour Pretty in Pink.

This is such a cute barn-inspired house.

The coloured circles inspired my project for this challenge.

I started with a Basic Black card bae and added a Pretty in Pink panel.

Then I embossed a narrower Basic White panel using the circles Cheery Patterns Embossing Folder.

I used two of the smaller circles from the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut the Pretty in Pink circles that I placed inside some of the Cheery circles.

Then I wrapped and secured three lengths of the Pretty in Pink Brodered Ribbon across the the embossed panel.

The greeting is from the Sweetly Scripted Stamp Set. It was attached to the embossed panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Extra die cut circles were added to the card insert and envelope.

Finally, I added some of the Pretty in Pink Gems to the card front.

I will share my #CI168 project on June 26th.Until then, happy stamping.

TIME FOR THE LATEST COLOUR INKSPIRATION CHALLENGE

With this challenge, we are using two more of the new 2024-2026 In Colours – Petunia Pop and Summer Splash.

The flowers look so pretty sitting inside this wonderful old teapot.

For my project, I chose the Layers of Beauty and Lifetime of Love Stamp Set.

I stamped the floral image four times, rotating it to create this frame.

After colouring the flowers and leaves, I fussy cut the frame inside and out. Then I added Clear Wink of Stella to add some lovely glimmer.

I placed the frame over a Basic White panel and made some light pencil marks. These were used to position the greeting, which was stamped in Summer Splash.

The panel was then adhered to a Summer Splash card base.

The frame was then added to the card front.

The card insert and envelope had the same floral image stamped using Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

I took a length of the Summer Splash Bordered Ribbon, cut it half, frayed it and tied a bow. The bow was attached to the flowers with a Mini Glue Dot.

The last step was to add some Summer Splash Gems to the front of the card.

I will post my project, for #CI167, on June 12th.

Until then, happy stamping.

TIME FOR THE LATEST COLOUR INKSPIRATION CHALLENGE

In our last Colour INKspiration Challenge, we farewelled the 2022-2024 In Colours. For this challenge, we are introducing two of the new 2024-2026 In Colours – Peach Pie and Shy Shamrock.

FOr my project I chose the Seaside Wishes Bundle and Hybrid Embossing Folder.

I started with with a Basic White card base and embossed the front of the card.

Then I took a Petal Pink panel and embossed and cut the sand dollars. I also cut some vellum ‘coral’ pieces.

After I gave each of these elements some texture by bending them with a bone folder, I attached them to the front of the card.

I added some Peach Pie and vellum star fish to the card as well.

The greeting was stamped in Shy Shamrock and trimmed down and added to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I took a length each of Peach Pie and Shy Shamrock Bordered Ribbons and cut them in half, lengthways. After fraying the ribbon a little, I tied two bows and secured them to the card with Mini Glue Dots.

The card insert and envelope were stamped with Peach Pie star fish images.

Finally, I added a few of the 2024-2026 In Colour Shimmer Gems.

I will share my #CI166 project with you on May 24th.

Until then, happy stamping.
