Hello Crafters,
Today I am getting back into some challenges, so I begin with a challenge at Just Add Ink. The challenge this week is a Colour Combination Challenge JAI#248.
I saw this colour combination and fell in love straight away. I reckon these colours go so well together and I just received my Love Is Kindness stamp this week, so couldn’t wait to ink it up!
The base card is Pool Party with a layer of Sahara Sand stamped with the Dictionary Background stamp in the coordinating ink. Then a piece of the Sahara Sand Lace Trim wrapped around this layer, before gluing it to the card base.
The flowers are stamped on Whisper White card stock using the Night of Navy ink and coloured with the set of Rich Razzleberry Blendabilities. The leaves are coloured using the Pool Party ink and the Aqua Painter. This layer is mounted onto Rich Razzleberry card stock and added to the card with dimensionals.
I stamped the image a second time onto Sahara Sand cardstock and fussy cut the newspaper wrapping and added it with dimensionals, before adding a linen thread bow.
I added some candy dots to the bottom corner.
Be sure tho decorate the inside panel of your card and even the envelope helps tie it all together!
Oh yay! I got an Honorable Mention for my card for this challenge!!!!

Just stunning, Kate! This is a beautiful card! Your colouring is very well done and I love the way you stamped the ‘newspaper’ part of the stamp onto the Sahara Sand cardstock and then ‘fussy’ cut it out! Great idea! Thanks for joining in the colour challenge this week at Just Add Ink. Well done!
