Colour INKspiration 61 #CI61

What is Colour INKspiraton? – a Facebook based bi-monthly colour challenge.

Anyone with Facebook can join in.  You don’t need a blog and you don’t need to be a demonstrator.

I have joined in these challenges and love them as Colour challenges for me are actually a real challenge.

 Click here to join the Facebook page which now has over 2000 members and see what it’s all about.

Here’s some of the basic details about the challenge –

The Colour INKspiration Crew! consists of a team of talented Aussie and NZ Stampin’ Up! ® Demonstrators that create projects based on Pinterest inspired colour swatches.

Every second and fourth Wednesday of the month at 7 pm (AEDT), a new colour swatch will be uploaded to the Facebook Colour INKspiration Group and the Colour INKspiration Crew will get the ball rolling by providing inspiration for each challenge with a blog hop.

Then you have a 12 day period to upload your own creations using the colours provided.

If you have a blog, feel free to link back to it, but all entries will be via Facebook.  The design team will select 5 projects to be ‘design team picks’ and then the Facebook group will select an overall winner from this shortlist.

Welcome from the gorgeous Denita

I sat on these colours for ages and only yesterday (yes yesterday) something finally popped into my head.
It turned out quite lovely...

We seem to forget about masks and the pretty embossing paste that we can add a couple of drops of reinker to, to get the desired colour..... so sparkly and shimmery...

I have used two new items coming next month on this card.... can you spot what they are??

TIP: sentiments don't have to stay together, fussy cut them apart after stamping for a different look on your card.

Oh and while I'm here - Wishing my youngest Logan a massive happy 7th birthday today!
