Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges Challenge #097

Hello and welcome to another Inspire.Create.Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. This week the design team have been set a colour challenge using colours Bumblebee, Calypso Coral, Just Jade and Night of Navy. 

For my submission I have taken the colours directly from Stampin' Up!'s Designer Series Paper Sweet Symmetry. I did cheat a little there is a smidgeon of Flirty Flamingo in the tiny background flowers but I felt as if I needed to use the DSP as background to give the stamped flowers a lift.

Inspire.Create. Stamping Challenges Challenge #096


Hello and welcome to Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges #096. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia and we have a CASE the Designer challenge for you today. The designer we are casing is one of our very clever and creative Inspire.Create team members Denita Wright-Smee.
Denita is very special to me as she is not only a member of my Stampin' Up! team but a very dear friend who provides never ending inspiration and encouragement to me.  

For my projects I have used Denita's layout but swapped out the pretty Hand-Penned designer series paper Denita has used for the Expressions in Ink  Designer Series Paper and her Penned Flowers dies for the beautiful Artistic dies. 


With my daughter's birthday this week I needed to make a special Birthday card for her. As we are in lockdown and unable to shop I created an extra long card to hold a gift voucher for our local beauty salon. I am sure she will enjoy a bit of pampering once we can get out and about again.



I hope you have been inspired by my projects. Please you are more than welcome to enter your projects for the Inspire.Create Challenges here.  We really would love to see your creations. Note we need your projects submitted by 10am. (UK time) Sunday.
