I love the way that each Colour INKspiration challenge gives us something new to create with. The colours of these birds are rich and vibrant.
This week I am featuring the Waves of the Ocean Collection, so my added challenge is how I can use these colours with the products of the week.
So, here is what I created.
I started by stamping the large wave image, from the Waves of Inspiration Stamp Set, on a piece of Basic White cardstock using Bermuda Bay ink. Then I embossed this piece using the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder.
To add definition to the card front, I cut 1/4″ strips of Basic Black, Crushed Curry, Real Red and Bermuda Bay cardstock. These four strips were adhered to the front panel.
I used the Waves Dies to cut three pelicans in the three key colours. After adding Stampin’ Dimensionals behind each pelican, I positioned them in alignment with the cardstock strips.
The sentiment was stamped and the tag die cut. Two lengths of Black and White Gingham Ribbon were passed through the tag and around the Basic White panel. Then I tied each pair of ribbon ends into tight little bows.
This Basic White panel was then adhered to the Basic Black cardbase.
I stamped the pelican image on the card insert and envelope front.
When you have a new collection of products to use it is great to know that you can use them with other products from your crafting supplies.
Tomorrow is 3D Thursday and I have a great waves insoired gift box to share with you.
Until then, happy stamping.
