TIME FOR THE LATEST COLOUR INKSPIRATION CHALLENGE

It is time to farewell the 2022-2024 In Colours.

Which colour was your favourite? For me, Sweet Sorbet was my favourite>

For my project, I decided to use Simply Zinnia Bundle along with the retiring colours.

I used a Basic White card base and cut a circle out. Using strips of the 2022-2024 In Colour 6″x 6″ DSP, I adhered them to a white insert and positioned it within the circle.

To finish this ‘window’, I cut a circular frame using Stylish Shapes and Delightful Doilies Dies.

I stamped three of the single zinnia images in Sweet Sorbet, Orchid Oasis and Starry Sky. Then they were cut using the coordinating dies.

I also stamped, cut and coloured some of the leaves with the Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends.

THe flowers and leaves were then positioned at the top of the ‘window’.

The greeting was stamped and then trimmed and added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Saying farewell to the 2022-2024 In Colour Twine, I tied a triple bow and used a Mini Glue Dots to attach it below the flowers.

Final farewell, as well, to the coordinating Gems.

The envelope and card insert were both stamped with the little stars.

I will have another Colour INKsiration project for you on May 8th.

Until then, happy stamping.

SATURDAY IS TIME FOR SOME SWEET THOUGHTS!

Today I want to share a collection of cards and coordinating gift boxes using the Sweet Thoughts Memories & More Card Pack and Cards & Envelopes.

I also used some of the smaller Memories & More Cards and Envelopes.

These are the two gift boxes that I made ot hold the cards.

Although these Memory & More products are retiring at the end of this month, you can create similar projects with any other Memories & More collections.

Lift the lid and …

For the lid, I used Pretty Peacock cardstock and Forever Love 12″x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper. To tie off the boxes I used Pretty Peacock & Gold 3/8″ Metallic Ribbon.

For the large gift box, I made a total of 17 cards.

Using Memories & More products is such an easy way to create quick and easy cards.

This Monday I will be featuring the Layers of Beauty Bundle and Decorative Masks.

Until then, happy stamping.
