Colour Inspiration Challenge #55

If you want to play along click on the title of this post and it will take you straight to Kristina's challenge page.

My nephews 17th birthday is coming up early next month so I thought these colours would work well for a card for him. I stamped the Classic Stars Stampin' Around wheel on a strip of Very Vanilla in More Mustard and scrap Very Vanilla in both More Mustard and Really Rust. I then cut out stars in both colours and varying sizes and mounted them with dimensionals on both the wheeled strip and off it onto the card, I love the feeling this gives the card.

I have yet again used Embrace Life, I love this sentiment, it seems to work with just about everything I do! As this is his last year at school I thought I would write on the inside "and shoot for the stars". I hope he likes it :-)

The photo below shows some of the dimension on the card, thanks for looking and have a great day.

Colour Inspiration Challenge #31

Another fabulous colour challenge, if you want to play along click on the title of this post and it will take you straight to Kristina's challenge page.

I love the colours, but I don't have any Pumpkin Pie or Elegant Eggplant card or ink - what is a girl to do? Why, use my Stampin' Pastel's of course! With these I have ALL the Stampin' Up! colours so there is no excuse not to play.

I decided to use Poppin' Pastels technique to add the colour to the background (Pumpkin Pie) and the "frond" images (Elegant Eggplant). Lots of piercing, sponging and cutting later, this is what I came up with. I hope you enjoy it.

Stamp Sets: Looks Like Spring, Petal Prints, Polka Dots and Paisley
Card: So Saffron, Close To Cocoa, Whisper White
Ink: So Saffron, Basic Brown, Versamark
Accessories: Dimentionals, Mat Pack, Spring Flower Bouquet Punch, Crystal Effects, Dazzling Diamonds, Stampin' Pastels, Sponge Dauber
