Welcome back for another Colour INKspiration challenge. This inspiration picture which has inspired our colour palette was chosen by Crew Member, Lou Kitzelmen.

As well as the chosen colour combination for #CI149, Fresh Freesia, Moody Mauve and Misty Moonlight, you may also add Basic White, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Basic Black, and metallics to your project. We also allow Ivory, Bronze and Natural Tones in Stampin’ Blends. If you don’t have the colours in our palette, feel free to use the closest Stampin’ Up! substitute.
To get your creative ideas flowing make sure you check out the Crew’s Projects in the CI#149 album.
My contribution features the Earthern Textures Stamp Set and coordinating Dies.
This card has a full size back and half front. After adhering panels of the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper, I attached two pieces of Basic White cardstock that were cut using the Deckled Rectangles Dies.
The three planter pots were cut from DSP using the Earthen Textures Dies. Then I cut the palm fronds and long slender leaves branches from the three Challenge colours card stock.
As you can see, I alternated the colours across the pots before adhering them to the Deckled Rectangle layer. The tallest pot was adhered directly onto the deckled layer while the other two pots were attached using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The sentiment is from the Earthern Textures Stamp Set and was cut using one of the banner dies from the Stylish Shapes Dies.
The card insert and envelope were both stamped using one of the images from the stamp set.
The card was finished with a few Moody Mauve gems from the 2023-2025 In Colour Dots.
My favourite die from this set is the palm shaped die that also embosses crease lines so it can be folded. Who thinks of this stuff? Totally awesome!
I hope to have lots more posts to share with you soon!
Until then, happy stamping.
