It's our 200th Challenge!!
Welcome to a very special challenge We are celebrating our 200th challenge at Colour INKspiration! I told you it was special. We still have many original Crew who started with our first challenge on January 11th, 2017. I've been here since the beginning playing along when I can. ( This amazing group was organised by the super creative Bronwyn Eastley. Past and present Crew members are amongst some of the nicest and most talented people I have ever met. And we even have some of our past Crew joining in with us to celebrate so watch out for their projects in the Album and in posts. We hope that you enjoy following and joining in with us as much as we love designing for you. Here's to another 200 challenges!
We welcome Catherine Proctor as our Guest Designer.
This challenge is a little different. We are asking you to showcase your favourite Stampin' Up! colour. It can be current or retired. It will be tricky to choose just one but we know you can do it!
As well you chosen colour for #CI200, you may also add Basic White, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Basic Beige, Basic Black and metallics to your project. We also allow ‘Ivory’, ‘Bronze’ and ‘Natural Tones’ in the Stampin’ Blends.
To get your creative ideas flowing, make sure you check out the Crew’s Project in the CI#200 Album on our Facebook Page
If you follow my projects you might have guessed that I would lean toward something GREEN or BLUE. I have had lots of favourites, and it was a tossup- Mint Macaron? Just Jade? Island Indigo? Boho Blue? Soft Succulent?
In the end I couldn't go past BERMUDA BAY.
So with a little something old and a little something new I have used the amazing new Friendly Foliage stampset and dies. I am really loving these. They are perfect for a simple card with or without a sentiment. I stamped the image twice with Bermuda Bay Ink, then heat embossed with Versamark and Clear Embossing Powder over the image. I backed the delicate foliage frame with some retired Bermuda Bay Foil and then set this on a white and a Bermuda Bay rectangle.
I did a tiny bit of stamping on the inside and the envelope.
The textured plain white background adds a little bit of luxe and there's a tiny bit more sparkle with the Irridescent Striped Trim ribbon.
