Colour INKspiration 164 #CI164

  

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 2900 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.

This has to be my most favourite group of incolours especially Starry Sky! 

I am super sad to see them leaving us....

I love this gorgeous Sea Turtle set and I am very happy it is carrying over to the new annual catalogue.

It works perfectly with these colours. I love that the stamps are reversable and that they can stamp a solid background image.

I love a bit of fussy cutting so the main Turtle, big starfish, one of the reeds and the for you sentiment have all been fussy cut. The background was also embossed for a bit of texture. It makes for a simple yet effective card.

The starfish remind me of some gorgeous starfish we saw on our honeymoon...... many many years ago in Vanuatu.

What will you create with these gorgeous colours?

I can't wait to see what you come up with!
