Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.
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. 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 your 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 in our Facebook group
Challenge guidelines:
· Create a NEW project made specifically for this challenge.
· Use only your 1 favourite Stampin' Up! colour along with
allowable neutrals.
· Upload only ONE picture per entry straight to the
discussion wall and NOT in an album.
CI#200 will run for almost TWO weeks and will end at 7 pm
(AEDT) on Monday December 8th.
We hope you can participate this round and look forward to
seeing a variety of projects showcasing your favourite colours. Happy stamping!
Soooo, my one colour HAD to be a green, but that turned out to be REALLY difficult because I love using all the greens. I also love a lot of white space. Eventually I chose to use Shaded Spruce because it's on high rotation on my craft table at the moment because it's a fabulous Christmas green.
I've used Ornamental Christmas stamp set, and just the star from the coordinating bundle. This is my FIRST Christmas TREE card this year!
My feature tree was stamped onto White Velvet, fussy cut and then coloured using Shimmery White embossing paste to give it sparkle!! I embellished the tree with the silver foil star and some of the stunning Faceted Snowflakes.
My card base is one of the lovely Embossed Textures Mix & Match crds and envelopes folded into a fun z fold because this is quite a simple card of repeat stamping to create the foresty feel!
