I had a little play this week – just because. I played along with the Colour Inkspirations Challenge #CI144.
I have to say I found it hard colours to put together. They are beautiful colours but just being so many it was hard to work them in.
I first pulled out a few stamp sets that I thought may work and then ended up choosing the Artistically Inked Stamp set. It’s nice to play with “older” stamp sets.
This is what I came up with. The colours were Bubble Bath, Crushed Curry, Lemon Lolly, Parakeet Party and Azure Afternoon.
I stamped a number of different flowers in the different colours and then played around with the placement. Eventually I got something together. 🙂
What would you do with these colours?
There is still time to play if you want to join in too. You can follow along on the Colour Inkspirations Facebook group ->HERE.
Happy Stamping,
Jenny

I have been loving the Two-Tone Flora Bundle recently. It’s such a gorgeous set. For this card I sponged a background under the delicate diecut.
For the colours on the flowers I used Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape. And Petal Pink and Calypso Coral. The sentiment is from the Go-To Greetings set.
See how I have done the background. I used the Blending Brush to build up the colour on the white card. It was darker on the bottom and built up lighter towards the top.
This is the blending in progress. TIP: Start off your card and gradually move up the card as you blend in a circular motion.
Isn’t the detailed background die so gorgeous? It is so delicate.
The Two-Tone Flora is not available as a Bundle now but you can buy the stamp set and the Dies individually.

Combining the Two-Tone Flora Bundle with the Countryside Corners Bundle. They just work so well together.
With the flowers they were stamped in Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape and Lemon Lolly and Daffodil Delight.
For the Countryside Corners I stamped them in Pecan Pie once on Crumb Cake and again on Pecan Pie card. The Pecan Pie one was diecut with the Countryside Corners Dies to give a frame effect.
The sentiment was stamped on white card with the Pecan Pie ink and then diecut. The sentiment is from the Go-To Greetings stamp set.
The White card is embossed with the new Countryside Blossoms Embossing Folder.

Our Day 5 project for the Cheerful Daisies Week is a Boho Blue one.
This was one of the cards we created at my Catalogue Launch last weekend. This card was CASED from the lovely Cheryl Hamilton -> HERE.
The white card mat is embossed with one of the Basics Embossing Folder and then adding some strips of the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper.
The daisy was stamped in Wild Wheat for the flower outline and the Lemon Lolly for the inside. The sentiment was stamped in Wild Wheat too. Aren’t these a lovely colour combination together?
This was a popular card at my launch too. Thank You Cheryl. 🙂

Another project for your on Day 3 of Cheerful Daisies Week. I hope they are cheering your week up?
Today’s project is a simple card with layering the daisy diecuts. This card was shown in my Instagram Reel earlier today. Did you catch it? Head to my Instagram -> HERE.
I like how these dies layer together. It gives the daisies added dimension. I think the black embossed card for the sentiment gives it a POP too don’t you think?

Day 2 for Cheerful Daisies Week. Just to brighten your week.
It’s a Side Stepper Fold Card. These are really easy. Once you get used to the cutting. I actually had the base for this one already cut from a previous class using this fold and it just happened that the Garden Green worked well with the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper.
The Daisy was stamped in Wild Wheat for the outline and then Lemon Lolly for the inside. I have to say I really liked how these colours worked together. I may just be warming up to Wild Wheat. 🙂
