Colour INKspiration #73 Challenge

Tonight, is the latest Colour INKspiration Challenge #73 and this beautiful photo is our inspiration. The colours for the challenge are Highland Heather, So Saffron and Mossy Meadow. How stunning is the field of lavender and sunset in the photo? You can also add Basic Black, Whisper White, Very Vanilla and metallics.

The challenge runs for almost 2 weeks and will end at 7pm (AEST) on 23^rd March 2020. I hope you’ll enter into the Colour INKspiration Challenge we would love to see your creation. 



Now for my card I’ve created which is a Mother’s Day Card and I’ve used the Beautiful Friendship Stamp Set. I’ve only recently purchased this set and I now know why everyone loves it so much. It’s a Distinktive stamp set which means less ink on your ink pad and stamp the better the image will look. 

I’ve used a panel of Whisper White Cardstock, stamped the larger floral images first and I’ve covered up the roses by using the Masking technique with sticky notes. I would then add the smaller Highland Heather flower image and the Mossy Meadow leaves. This gives you the impression that some of the images are behind others. The Hydrangeas are first stamped off in Highland Heather and stamped on each of the four corners and sides. I’ve also added stamped off leaf images in Mossy Meadow where needed. I added a few of the smaller Highland Heather Rose images, by stamping on an extra piece of Whisper White Cardstock and fussy cut out the images. As well as a few more leaf images. 

The So Saffron Metallic Baker’s Twine is a freebie from the Saleabration Catalogue, when you purchase $90 worth of Stampin’ Up! products. There is also Bermuda Bay Twine and coordinating Sequins in the Combo Pack. I’ve wrapped the Twine around the floral panel and So Saffron panel, adding a little sparkle. 

The sentiment is from the Timeless Tulips Stamp Set, stamped in Highland Heather and die cut out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I’ve added a few of the So Saffron Iridescent Sequins to the card and the card base is Highland Heather which finishes off the card nicely. 

Do you have this stamp set? I’m so glad I have it now and I can’t wait to try out other colours with the set.
