TIME TO SHARE MY COLOUR INKSPIRATION #163 PROJECT

Welcome to our 163rd challenge at Colour INKspiration! We welcome Teah Karr Woodward as our Guest Designer.

Today’s picture which has inspired our colour palette was chosen by Colour INKspiration Crew Member, Monica Formosa. As well as the chosen colour combination for #CI163, Crushed Curry, Poppy Parade, Coastal Cabana, Gorgeous Grape and Starry Sky, you may also add Basic White, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Basic Beige, Basic Black and metallics to your project. We also allow ‘Ivory’, Bronze’ and ‘Natural Tones’ in the Stampin’ Blends. If you don’t have the colours in our palette, feel free to use the closest Stampin’ Up! colour.

These colours are so vivid and it took me a while to figure out which stamp set/bundle I would use. Then Attention Shoppers came to mind.

I decided to use a Basic White card base and a panel of Crushed Curry paper from the 2023-2024 Regals 6″x 6″ DSP pack.

Then I used Gorgeous Grape and Basic Black card stock, with Adhesive Sheet attached to each, to die cut the shopping trolley.

The fun part was then stamping each of the shopping trolley items, several times, and then die cutting them. Then I used Stampin’ Write Markers and Stampin’ Blends to colour each of them.

Because the greeting I chose was ‘Treat Yourself’, I needed to fill the trolley with loads of goodies.

I stamped the same greeting inside the card and on the back of the envelope.

For bling, I added Clear Wink of Stella onto each of the trolley items.

One day soon I hope to find where the flower bouquet die has disappeard to!

Tomorrow I have my 3D Beach Day project to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.

If you live in Australia, you can order any of the products I used to make this card by going to my online store. Because the Attention Shoppers Bundle is not yet available to customers, I haven’t created a product display for this post. I have shared most of the products that I have used through the descriptions above.

THURSDAY MEANS THAT IT’S TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT

The momwnt I saw the pull cart image in the Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper and thedies in the Filled with Fun Dies, I knew that I wanted to make a 3D pull cart.

When I made this (26 March) we still had Easter ahead of us.

I started by creating a small rectangular cart base. Then I was able to attach the Poppy Parade cart sides and the Basic White timber textured side panels.

The wheels were made using Basic Black card and Poppy Parade inner circles. I added Adhesive Sheet to the Poppy Parade card to make it so easy to fill in the centre of the tyres.

I cut two of the pulling mechanisms in Basic Black and adhered them together. After leaving the lower ends of the mechanism, I was able to fold them open and adhere them to the catd.

The greeting, from the Excellent Eggs Stamp Set, was stamped onto a small piece of Basic White scrap. I adhered this piece just inside the cart.

The bunny was stamped and coloured using Smoky Slate and Pretty in Pink Stampin’ Blends. It was die cut and then adhered to the greeting panel.

Tomorrow I have a Fancy Fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.

WELL, WHAT’S HAPPENING THIS WEDNESDAY

Woohoo, it’s Wednesday and another opportunity to share something new.

Today’s card is ‘amazing’.

I was so pleased to see the wonderful panels on two of the Designer Series Paper sheets. I used this playground panel for the background on my Poppy Parade cardbase

After looking at all the images on the Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper, I chose the three children in the pull cart for this card.

I was able to cut it using one of the Kiddin’ Around Dies.

I also used the Filled with Fun Dies to cut a Poppy Parade cart, Basic White timber side, pull handle in Basic Black and wheels in Basic Black and Poppy Parade.

After I layered all these elements and adhered them together, I had created an amazing pull cart with happy children inside.

The completed pull cart was then added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The greeting, from the Kiddin’ Around Stamp Set, was stamped in Poppy Parade before being trimmed down and added to the front of the card.

I stamped the cluster of stars, from the stamp set, on the card insert and envelope.

Tomorrow I have a small 3D Easter project to share with you – albeit a week late for Easter.Until then, happy stamping.
