Sparkly Inspiration for Colour INKspiration #72




Hello and Welcome to another wonderful Colour INKspiration challenge!!  Check out the colours this time!!


Our inspiration comes from some gorgeous images from Pinterest which then are the source for the colours of the challenge.  
No photo description available.

And the Inspiration Picture this time is so sparkly!!  



I've used one of the new offerings from our 2nd Release Sale-a-bration freebies called Tags In Bloom.  It's a great set that coordinates with our new Label Me Lovely and Label Me Fancy punches in the new Mini Catalogue.  


The colouring of the flowers was done with the Bermuda Bay and Calypso Coral Stampin' Blends.  


The Label Me Lovely punch creates a fabulous window in this lovely image!!


When the card was finished I spritzed it with alcohol and the Champagne Shimmer Mist to give it lots of sparkle and shine!!  I love the extra splatters too - I think that's a lovely artistic touch!!


We'd love you to join in the fun with us - add your project using these colours to our facebook challenge page - and you'll also see the album with the whole design team and their gorgeous projects!!

No photo description available.

This is a glorious sketch!  I usually like to put quite a few photos on my pages - I always have heaps to use!!  - so this was a bit of a challenge to choose one photo only!!



My colours for this page are Balmy Blue, Night of Navy, Crumb Cake and Seaside Spray.  


I've featured the amazing Painted Poppies stamp set with the gorgeous coordinating Painted Labels dies.  


The subtle background stamping was also created by inking the Coastal Weave embossing folder and randomly stamping all over the background of the page. 


The flowers were coloured using the Balmy Blue Stampin' Blends.  I stamped them using Night of Navy ink first and then coloured using both the light and dark Stampin' Blends.  


The leaves were stamped and coloured using the Crumb Cake ink and Stampin' Blends, and then all were cut using the Painted Label dies.  


I hope you've been inspired to give this great sketch a go!!  It was really fun to create this page!!

Hello and Welcome to our Sunday Night Challenge and Blog Hop CASEING the CATTY.



To CASE is to Copy And Selectively Edit or to Copy And Share Everything and we love to CASE from the amazing array in our Stampin' Up! catalogues. 

No photo description available.

For the next two weeks, we are CASEING the colours of the Sale-a-bration Kerchief Card Kit - this is a really gorgeous card kit and just PERFECT for a quick project that feels creative and fun to do!!  



I've used the colours from the Blue card - they are:  Coastal Cabana, Early Espresso, Balmy Blue, Night of Navy, Mossy Meadow and Gold Foil.  




I've used these colours as my starting point to make this fun Split Panel card featuring Forever Blossoms and Parisian Beauty stamp sets.  


These flowers from the Forever Blossoms set work perfectly with the Small Bloom Sale-a-bration punch!!  I've paired them with the leaf punch for some foliage. 


Inside the card uses a few more of the stamps in a little bit of collage stamping.  



Up next on our hop this week is the marvellous Siobhan.


We love having you join in the fun with our challenge - and it's super easy to add your photo to the lineup on our facebook challenge page!!
