Colour INKspiration # 82

Welcome back for another round of Colour INKspiration, and what a striking and happy combination we have tonight. Black and White and gold with Just Jade and Melon Mambo. 
I am trying very hard to mix old and new and use up some of my stash of treasures- so I can make room for new treasures of course! I am also trying hard to be time efficient since it's such a precious resource. So using Memories and More cards ticks both these boxes and I used 2 on the one card today. These cards and the white sprig are from the retired Petals and More set but I'm so glad I had held onto them. 
All the colour comes from the beautiful new Forever Fern set which is a pantry staple if you ask me. Stamped off the images are just as beautiful like on the envelope here.




I had another large card which was perfect for the inside. This was a very quick card to assemble, and the colours just make me happy. I do hope you create a project to share with us on our Facebook page using these colours. You have 3 weeks for this combination.

I hope you have a creative week and remember, 
"don't just post online,
 post something pretty!"
cheers, Liz

Two new Frames for the Handmade Expo Markets this weekend. These are hand rolled vanilla paper roses, with newsprint DSP in the red version. Sentiment is from Painted Petals, making the paper roses is made easier using the Spiral Flower Die thanks for looking. Of course these can be mDe to order, liz

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car
