Hello and welcome,
Today I have some exciting news to share with you, I’m now officially part of the Colour INKspiration Crew! It consists of some amazing talented Aussie and NZ Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators that create projects based on photos from Pinterest.
Did you see our Guest Designer - Le Anne Pugliese for this challenge? Her card is so beautiful be sure to hop all the way through for more inspiring projects using these colours.
There’s also a Facebook group for Stampin’ Up! Who like to be creative and share their paper craft projects using colour combinations. There's more information at the end of this blog.
Now for the gorgeous colours we get to use for the latest challenge #CI65 they are Blackberry Bliss, Merry Merlot, Gray Granit and Basic Black. You can also use Whisper White, Very Vanilla and as well as Metallics.
I’ve used two stamp sets Fanciful Fragrance and Very Versailles for my card, both sets are stunning with a beautiful vintage feel. I’ve stamped the branch in Blackberry Bliss, then fussy cut around the stamped image and adhered to the card front with Tombow.
The die cut image is in Whisper White Cardstock and I’ve used the 8cm by 11.5cm Stitched Rectangles Die. With a Sponge Dauber I’ve inked up around the edges with Gray Granite ink and the two flower images are in Merry Merlot Ink. There are three perfume bottles connected together in the Fanciful Fragrance stamp set and I only wanted one, so I fussy cut around the image, adhered with Tombow and placed the greeting with Stampin’ Dimmensionals.
The card base is Blackberry Bliss and with the stamp image of the Script from Very Versailles, I’ve randomly stamped on the Cardstock in Black Memento ink. I like how the branch image connects the two pieces of Cardstock together. The final touch I’ve added three Basic Rhinestones to the card.
