Inspire.Create.Challenge #112 – Colour Challenge!

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to my blog post today showcasing my Design Team project for the new Inspire.Create.Challenge.

This time we are using a colour challenge to inspire our creations!

Stop by the Inspire.Create.Challenges blog to see all the Design Team projects and upload your entry. We’d love to see your projects.

I have chosen to work with a mixture of products to add layers and texture to my design.

The flowers from the Sentimental Swirls stamp set are so versatile and look lovely in any colour!

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

I opted to use Ornate Thanks for the sentiment and used the same Just Jade ink to enhance the embossed background and makes the die cut stand out.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!

There’s a brand new challenge starting today over on the Inspire.Create.Challenges blog!

This time it’s a sketch challenge, and is great one for all skill levels to join in… Post a picture of your creations in the gallery and we’ll pick a winner!

My cards have been kept very simple focusing on the fabulous designer series papers Stampin’ Up! has to offer.

The narrow section is the perfect place for a bold sentiment. I used the Ornate Thanks set.

With so many papers to choose from, I went to town and made a whole bunch of cards in no time!

The paper packs I used were;

Simply Elegant
Expressions in Ink
Hand-penned
Sweet Symmetry
Pansy Petals

I made 10 cards altogether! Which cards do you like best?

Monday Colour Challenge Finale featuring Colour & Contour

Hello Everyone,

This is the last Monday Colour Challenge for time being…. I hope you enjoyed the series!

Our colours this week are;

Crumb Cake
Bermuda Bay
Blushing Bride

I’ve pulled out Colour and Contour to make the card and tried something different with the layout!

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

Some Wink of Stella on the blooms adds a hint of colour from the line art and some sparkle too!

The card takes on a different look when the colours are used differently!

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Granny Apple Green

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial…..

By changing the colour combination the card takes on a different look.

This combo used;

Monday Colour Challenge with Under My Umbrella

Hello Everyone,

Here we are at Monday again and another colour challenge!

This week’s combo is;

Soft Suede
Shaded Spruce
So Saffron

I don’t use Soft Sueded and So saffron very often. After rummaging through the retiring stamp sets I settled on using Under My Umbrella to make a first floral background.

See how I made this card in my video tutorial….

So what do we think? Which do you prefer? If I’d have had enough Shaded Spruce cardstock I would tried that too! Lol!

Here’s a close up of the So Saffron version!

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Inspired Thursday

Hello Everyone,

This set of cards was inspired by the Project Share Project I participate in each Thursday.

From those projects I picked out, Jar of Flowers, Ornate Thanks and the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder.

You can see the original cards in this blog post….

https://inkybutterfly.wordpress.com/2020/07/30/project-share-project-105

I added the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper and used the 2020 in colour inks and ribbons.

See how I made these cards in my video tutorial….

So which is your favourite?

This layout could be used for masculine cards too!

I really like this embossing folder!

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Hello Everyone,

Welcome, I hope you are doing well today!

This is the final background technique for this week. This time we are doing a bit of watercolouring!

Tiled Background with the Stamparatus

Hello Everyone,

I hope you’ve been loving the different backgrounds I have been making this week.

Here’s another with the Today’s Tile stamp set.

I used the Stamparatus tool to line up the images as seen in my video tutorial…

This is the Gray Granite version which was finished with champagne rhinestones.

The two Grey’s look so different when they are side by side. Which do you prefer?

I hope you enjoyed this project.
