Just Add Ink #459...Colour!




Good Morning!
Today we have a brand new challenge happening over at Just Add Ink For this one Rochelle has challenged us to use the above colours on our projects and the design team have created the prettiest gallery to inspire you! So make sure you click on the link and pop over for lots of beautiful inspiration.

This colour combination just made me drool! So l decided to create a second project while l had them out on the table and just because l'm a sucker for the Poppy & Blush combo, so throw in Bermuda & Coastal and l couldn't help myself, they are so, so pretty!

As l had just received my Pre-Order from Stampin Up! I chose to combine the colours with the gorgeous new "Free as a Bird" suite and the "Stitched Lace" die. Both available to customers on June 4th and the images were all coloured using Stampin Blends (current & retired). I just love how beautiful these markers are to use, so easy to blend with.



The how to for my second project is....

8"x 8" card base  Scored at 4" in both directions.
Then scoring from the top 4" middle scoreline diagonally to the outside middle 4" scoreline both directions to create the flaps.
Then on the remaining bottom vertical scoreline you cut up to the middle scoreline to create a pants leg effect.
You can see in the second pic how this should look and l love that it all folds up to 4" card for gifting.

Colour INKspiration #56




Evening all!

We have a new Colour INKspiration challenge happening and just look at those gorgeous colours! This one will run for 3 weeks, instead of our normal 2...That gives you plenty of time to click on the link or banner above, request to join our Facebook group, get creating and join us!

I have another Tunnel/shadow box card to share, same, same but different to my previous Colour INKspiration project. This one being more for the girls with these gorgeous colours and just slightly different measurements.
I have used the "Bloom by Bloom" set to add pops of colour and the nesting oval framelits. These are lots of fun and so simple to make and l love that the sides squish in accordian style, to allow the use of a normal envelope.

Measurements:
Base - 2 x 6-1/4" x 5-1/2"  (Panels can be made in any size and still scored the same).
Scored at 1/2" & 1" on the 6-1/4" length on both sides of each piece.
Panel: 4" x 5-1/4"

Colour INKspiration #55

 Colour INK



Evening friends!

It's time for a new  Colour INKspiration challenge! Lots of pretty colours to choose from and as long as we used at least 3, we met the challenge requirements.

I've gone with Lemon Lime Twist-Coastal Cabana-Flirty Flamingo & Smoky Slate to create a "Shadow Box/Tunnel" card...Not really sure exactly what its called, as there are various names attached to the ones l have seen.
BUT...I do need to confess to a blooper, when writing the challenge colours on my desk memo pad for up coming challenges, l abbreviated Grapefruit Grove to "Grape" and you guessed it...I used Gorgeous Grape instead, only realizing when uploading my pic and by then it had already been sent off..."Note to self" be more vigilant in future!

Panel 4-3/4" x 3-1/2"

Just Add Ink #455...Sympathy!

 Just Add Ink



Happy Friday everyone!

This week over at Just Add Ink Kim has challenged us to "Add Sympathy" to our projects! I really like this challenge, as l struggle to make sympathy cards at a time when they are required, so having a pre made on hand is always a good thing!

For my project this week, l have used the "Share What You Love" suite and a new to me fold. This fold is commonly referred to as a "Triangle Fold" and was fun and so simple to create.




The rest of the design team have created some beautiful "Sympathy" cards, so make sure you pop over to the blog and check them out!
