Hello and welcome to another Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. This week we have been set a colour challenge. The challenge colours being Blackberry Bliss, Lost Lagoon and Lemon Lolly. 2 returning Stampin' Up! colours and the new Lemon Lolly.
I needed some thank you cards for friends & family who recently helped me celebrate a birthday I would have just as easily liked to forget. But they made such a fuss and made me feel so special I needed to express my appreciation in a special way. As I was making 30 of these cards I chose the 3 colours for the challenge and mixed them up a bit for some variety.
I have used the bundle I have been itching to use, the Timeless Arrangements, since the Annual Catalogue was released. My flowers have been stamped on and cut from the Fluid Watercolor Paper (page 126 of the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue).
After colouring & die cutting the flowers I have arranged them around the sentiment adding some Vellum Cardstock die cut flowers to bring softness to the design.
You will notice the Cross-Hatch Embossing Folder I have used to add texture to the cards. If you are looking for this in the catalogue STOP. The folder is available as part of a pack of 3 which are available only through my online store along with many other online exclusive products. I have included the link below in my product list.
