COLOUR INKSPIRATION #99

Hello and thank you so much for popping by. I added a new post yesterday after a two week absence – but, I have a new knee and have been doing all my physiotherapy exercises.

Yesterday’s post was for the Global Design Project #GDP292. I made the card for the GDP challenge after I made my project for #CI99 – I thought it would be easier to use the same colours for both challenges.

May be an image of 1 person and text that says '#99 COLOUR NSPIRATION CHALLENGES Mint Macaron Just JusJade Jade Smoky Slate Soft Suede'

For this card i chose the Colour & Contour Stamp Set and Scalloped Contours Dies.

It was loads of fun using these, very unfloral, colours for the penned flower images. I stamped the images, using Jet Black StazOn, and then used the challenge colours to watercolour the flowers. The images were then die cut.

The coordinating dies have two dies for the floral images, a scalloped edge die and five scalloped rectangles. I used the second largest of these to cut out a ‘window’, in Soft Suede, for the sentiment and gems. The sentiment was stamped, using Just Jade, onto a piece of Shimmery White cardstock and positioned on the Soft Suede card front. The window layer was lifted up on Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then I positioned the flowers and floral stem onto the card front. They were adhered using both Mulitpurpose Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals. The final touch was to add some of the Genial Gems.

SCALLOPED CONTOURS DIES

These are some of the new products I used for this project.

The fonts used in the sentiments of this stamp set are really lovely.

It has been very nice to make two projects, two weeks after my surgery. Getting back to ‘normal’ is a treat.

Happy stamping.
