Welcome to Colour Inkspiration!
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 2300 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 post on their blogs.
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.
Colour INKspiration 102
I have always loved a pink and gray/ grey colour scheme together!
Using the textured paste, coloured with Basic Gray and Smokey Slate re-inkers to colour the paste to make an ombre Grey textured background I then slathered it over the new triangle mask from the Plenty of Patterns Decorative Mask set with a palette knife. I purposely made it so it was chunky and textured. Who wants a perfectly smooth background using texture paste? Not me!
I can't wait to see what you come up with!
