Colour INKspiration #CI56

Welcome to my blog, and to the Colour INKspiration Design Team Challenge Blog Hop. 
You may have joined me from Elizabeth, and her gorgeous creation,
or you have started with me?

We would love for you to join in the fun. Add your project to our gallery here.

The Challenge Colours:

Berry Burst, Blackberry Bliss, Melon Mambo & Garden Green.

You can also add Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Whisper White & Metallics.

'Free as a Bird' stamp set - available in the NEW Annual Catalogue 3rd June, 2019.

I have stamped the Birds on a branch image, the flowers, buds & leaves. 

Concentrating on the flowers & leaves only, I have coloured them using a 'Blender Pen' and all 4 Challenge colours.

I have adhered a 'Rectangle Stitched Framelits Die' frame to the card front; made using the largest and 3rd largest of the dies.

The flowers, buds & leaves have been fussy cut, and adhered into the corners of my card.

Next on the Blog Hop is Jan, and her very sweet creation.

Thankyou so much for visiting my blog, and enjoy what the Crew have created using the Colours. See you in 3 weeks for the next Challenge! D x

I have gone and used all of the Colours in the Challenge!

Card base and mat: 'Smoky Slate' cardstock

I have used 'Glossy White' cardstock for the floral die cut pieces from the beautiful 'Abstract Impressions' Bundle. Taking my 'Aqua Painter' and ink pads to colour in the die cut - not requiring a lot of water to paint with.

A little bit of 'Vellum' cardstock, and a sweet sentiment for the card front.

Then a little addition of 'Whisper White Baker's Twine' with a sprinkling of 'Rich Razzleberry' pearls from the 'Share What You Love Artisan Pearls'.

The divine Rose is next on the hop, and you will love her take for this Challenge.

Thankyou for visiting, and we can't wait to see your colourful projects. D x

Just Add Ink - Just Add Sympathy #455

Welcome to my blog, and to the Just Add Ink - Just Add Sympathy Challenge.

What a week the Design Team have had making Sympathy cards 

for our nearest & dearest.

Please join in with this Challenge, and share with us your Sympathy creations. 

Add your project to our gallery here.

Sympathy cards are not the nicest of cards to be giving, however, we send them to someone to show we care about them at such a sad time, and that they are in our thoughts.

My creation is going to a very dear friend of mine.

The *'Bird Ballad Laser-Cut Cards & Tin' (with scalloped edged envelopes), and *'Bird Ballad DSP' was the perfect choice for my friend.
(The 'Very Vanilla' Cards & Envelopes come in pack of 12 of each, stored in a sweet 'Petal Pink & Gold' tin.)
How divine is the lacy detailed card front? I have adhered a piece of 'Very Vanilla' cardstock behind the detail to fill in the card front.
*Available in the NEW Annual Catalogue June 4th,  2019.


The sentiment is from the retiring 'Wishing You Well' stampset.
Stamped in 'Soft Suede' ink, then I used stamped off 'So Saffron' ink for the flowers. 
Die cut using the 'Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies'.
Attach a strip of 'Tear & Tape Adhesive' to the back of the rectangle, and apply some divine NEW 'Very Vanilla Scalloped Lace Trim'.

I have fussy cut the bird and flowers from the Designer Series Paper. 
The images from this DSP are so beautiful!

Believe me, these are such gorgeous products, and a must for your Wish List when the 2019-2020 Annual Catalogue is launched.

Thankyou for visiting me, and be sure to visit the Design Teams blogs and leave them a little love this week.
Take care, and see you next Challenge. D x
