Welcome to the next Colour INKspiration challenge – #CI165. We are celebrating some of Stampin’ Up! new In-Colour this challenge, let’s take a look….
Peach Pie, Petal Pink and Shy Shamrock.
Along with new colours, this month in Stampin’ Up! land we have a range of new toys to play with too – having released a new Annual Catalogue. Today, I’m playing with a new bundle called Flowers of Beauty.
This set features stamps and dies and here, I have used a combination of both to create a featured arrangement. One thing I have noticed while using these new colours is, they are bright and strong colours. These types of colour really lend themselves to Generational Stamping techniques, which really allow you to extend the shades of the ink colour.
On my card, here, I have used the Shy Shamrock in full strength – leaves at the back, and the sentiment. However the leaves are lighter – here I stamped off on some scratch paper, removing some of the ink from my stamp, before stamping again on Basic White cardstock to use.
Petal Pink and Peach Pie are what we call “colour buddies”. These are two shades of a similar colour that work together to provide light and shade. Here I stamped the outline stamp in Peach and coloured the flowers with Petal.
I added a die cut leaf layer from Shy Shamrock and finish the card with some new In Colour glimmer gems. I layered some Petal Pink cardstock to a Basic White thick cardbase to make the card.
