Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI111

 Hello and welcome,

It's the latest Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI111 and this photo was chosen by Colour INKspiration Crew Member, Nicole Wilson. It's a beautiful photo and I love the colours for this latest challenge. 

The colour combination for #CI111 is Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen. As well as the chosen colours you may also add Basic White, Basic Black, Sahara Sand and metallics to your project. We also allow 'Ivory' and 'Bronze' in the Stampin' Blends. If you don't have all the colour palette, feel free to use the closest SU substitute (ie: Mint Macaron instead of Soft Succulent .... you get the drift). 

The challenge will run for almost 2 weeks until 7pm (AEST) on Monday 22nd November 2021 details to follow at the end of my blog.

I recently received a new order from Stampin' Up! called Heart & Home Collection which will be available for customers in January 2022. Demonstrators who are going to #OnStage@Home could order the collection. Of course I just had to get it all! I've used the Blessings of Home Stamp Set and Flowers of Home Dies the rest I'm yet to play with, but I know I'll be using it all this weekend at #OnStage@Home. 

To create the card I've stamped the large floral image in Memento Black Ink onto Basic White Cardstock and using the Stampin' Blends in  the challenge colours. For the large flower I've used light & dark Soft Succulent and added a little of light Evening Evergreen to give the flower more depth. The center part is in Ivory and the Stampin' Blend Color Lifter. I also stamped a second large flower, coloured it in and fussy cut it out. 

The smaller flowers are in Crumb Cake and blending in with the Color Lifter. The leaves are in light & dark Soft Succulent. The large flower image is then die-cut using the large die from the Flowers of Home Dies.

In the Flowers of Home Dies there are lots of other delicate detailed die-cut pieces to add more to your card making, paper crafting and scrapbooking. The options are endless. I've used just some of the smaller dies and die-cut out in Very Vanilla Cardstock. 

The card base is in Soft Succulent Cardstock layered with a panel in Soft Succulent which is from the Harvest Meadow 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. 

The addition of Very Vanilla Lace adds a vintage look to the card and I also used Very Vanilla Baker's Twine. 

To finish off the card the sentiment is from the Blessing of Home Stamp Set, stamped in Crumb Cake Ink onto a strip of Basic White Cardstock and I've place three Very Vanilla Classic Matte Dots onto the card. Well I hope you liked how I've used the challenge colours for this latest challenge.

I hope you can participate in this latest round and as we so look forward to seeing a variety of projects using the challenge colours. Please ensure that your project is new and made specially for this challenge.

Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI111 will run until 7pm (ADET) on Monday 22nd November 2021.
