Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI130

 


 Hello and welcome,

My name is Vicki Boucher, and I am from Melbourne, Australia. Tonight, it's the latest Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI130 and this photo was chosen by lou Kitzelman. It's such a pretty photo and I love the colour palette.




The colour combination for #CI130 is Highland Heather, Blackberry Bliss, Night of Navy and Granny Apple Green. As well as the chosen colours you may also add Basic White, Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Crumb Cake, 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: Parakeet Party instead of Granny Apple Green .... you get the drift).

The challenge will run for almost 2 weeks until 7pm (AEST) on Monday 10th October 2022 details to follow at the end of my blog.




Today's card, I've created a watercolour look using the large floral stamp from the Blessings of Home Stamp Set and stamped it in Stazon Ink onto Shimmery Whisper White Cardstock. I've actually stamped the image about four times around the edge of the panel. 




Then with the four challenge colours I started mixing them together on the paper using the fine tip Water Painter. For example I would use Highland Heather and then add Blackberry Bliss ink to the three larger flowers. I like to leave a little white space at the tip of the flower petals. Then I would firstly add Highland Heather and then Night of Navy ink for the other two large flowers. 




Once the watercolour panel was dry, I lightly added Night of Navy ink to the edge of the cardstock with the Blending Brush and I also did this Highland Heather.




Using a couple of the smaller stamps from the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set, I stamped randomly a number of times in Highland Heather and Night of Navy ink. I really liked this and there's hardly any white space left at all.




To finish off the card I added White Glittered Organdy Ribbon and Silver Simply Elegant Trim. The sentiment is stamped in Night of Navy ink onto a strip of Basic White and adhered to a strip of Night of Navy Cardstock.


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.
