Welcome back for another (LATE) edition of Colour INKspiration #188.
Amidst the renovations and the half packed craft room I had some fun playing with some of the new In Colours 25-27 and a few new products that have been waiting patiently to be used. I am surprised by how much I enjoy using Timid Tiger!
This week's picture was chosen by Lou, and it's a great mix of new and existing colours from the range. I had fun playing with these.

I have had Cake Celebrations on my shelf for quite a while now and I loved how easy it is to use. Creating the cake was super easy. The Strawberry Slush was stamped off for the cake layers but used full strength for the bands of filling. Sometimes photopolymer images don's hold the ink well enough for second generation stamping but these ones do it really easily.
I cut the new ribbon in half along the length to give 2 narrow pieces which tied really easily into the bow.
The background DSP was given a bit of additional texture using the new Pressed Flowers Embossing Folder
I wanted to use a few other new products and while I had the colours out I also created a few other cards. I played with the new Irresistible Designs Cardstock - white embossed card that you can colour with blending brushes or any other method of adding ink. I used the leaf design on the Coastal Cabana Card. I also love the amazing Textured Notes nested rectangle dies which all have a different detailed border.

And finally, I was also playing with the amazing new Extraordinary Washi Tape and the die which cuts all those amazing flowers in one pass on the Cut and Emboss Machine. So for the last card I stamped the cake and then layered it up with a selection of the flowers. Super Easy.
