Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI119

  Hello and welcome,

It's the latest Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI119 and this photo was chosen by Lou Kitzelman. I love the colours and flowers in this photo, it's so Easter.  

The colour combination for #CI119 is Fresh Fressia, Flirty Flamingo, Magenta Madness, Pool Party and Gold. As well as the chosen colours you may also add Basic White, Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Crumb Cake 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: Polished Pink instead of Magenta Madness .... you get the drift).

 

The challenge will run for almost 2 weeks until 7pm (AEST) on Monday 25th April 2022 details to follow at the end of my blog.

Today's card is using the Artfully Layered Stamp Set and Tropical Layers Dies which is on page 34 of the Jan to June 2022 Mini Catalogue. I just love this bundle especially the palm leaf stamp and the dies. 

Starting with the background panel I used Shimmery White Cardstock, applied Pool Party Ink with the Blending Brush and stamped the smaller leaves image a number of times in Pool Party Ink. To create the gold edging around the panel, first I used the Paper Snips Scissors along the edge of the panel to distress the cardstock. Next lightly apply Multipurpose Liquid Glue with a Sponge Dauber to the edges, let it dry so it's tacky. Then, add Gilded Leafing and brush off excess.

The challenge colours have been used for the die-cut images in the following combination. Basic White Cardstock with Magenta Madness Ink added with a Blending Brush. Fresh Freesia Cardstock and Ink I also added Gold Gilded Leafing to the leaves. Fresh Freesia Shimmer Vellum for the detailed palm leaf. Basic White stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink and lightly added Flirty Flamingo Ink with the Blending Brush and the last detailed palm leaf is Vellum with Flirty Flamingo Ink added with the Blending Brush.

The added layers under the leaves are Fresh Freesia Shimmer Vellum, White Faux Linen Ribbon and Gold Simply Elegant Trim. The sentiment is stamped in Magenta Madness Ink onto Basic White Cardstock, fussy cut out and I've added a few of the new Pool Party Solid Faceted Gems to finish off the card.

I hope I've inspired you with the latest challenge and I do hope you'll join in. We so look forward to seeing a variety of projects using the challenge colours. Please ensure that your project is new and made specifically for this challenge.

Use all of the challenge colours (or close substitutions) unless stated.
