Paper Craft Crew #PCC610

This challenge is Case the Mini Catty with a Twist... 

So I actually made this card for my class last night and it looked very similar to the card that is on the top left of page 58... my twist is that I added another layer and turned it into a Diagonal Tri- Fold Card.

I am loving this new bundle that will be an online exclusive next month. (March 2025)

I love it so much that I made the same card in another colour. 

There's so many possibilities with this set!

One of my work buddies is leaving us on Friday which I am so sad about as she is an awesome support worker but she has been offered an awesome job, school hours with school holidays off! She would be an asset to any employer and she will be sorely missed by our participants and staff (Especially Me!).

So lucky to jag these two challenges together as the colours are exactly the same

Some people would argue that Summer Splash is a green but I think it is closer to an Aqua Blue.

Its valentines day tomorrow so I made my hubby a quick card.

I think this bee set is one of the cutest sets available in the catalogue.

Colour INKspiration 181 #CI181

 

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 3000 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.

One of my favourite colours is Blue and these are just gorgeous!

So I still went with a beach style theme....

Using the saleabration set Friendly seagulls (available only till the end of this month!) I made this card. I had the idea to put a bit of a funny card into this card challenge using a line from finding nemo where there is food and the seagulls all say "mine" mine" mine" If you haven't seen the movie I suggest you do.

The background was made with the die cuts from the Hot Air Balloon Dies as a mask and the 4 different shades of blue blended over the top with blending brushes. The seagulls were stamped onto the background as well as onto white cardstock, fussy cut out and glued onto the background. Its a simple but effective card.

If you are interested in joining in on this great challenge.
