Colour INKspiration #90

Hello and Welcome to our Colour INKspiration challenge.

We use some amazing images from Pinterest to inspire creativity and source our colours for the challenge.  

This time, the colours are Daffodil Delight, Petal Pink, Pool Party, Coastal Cabana and Pretty Peacock and I loooove the image to inspire us!!  

Maybe I'll make some Christmas cards inspired by these soft and delicious colours?

For my contribution this week though, I've used the colours as my starting point for gifts for work colleagues.  The design for this card is a standard upright card with a little w fold stand in the centre - I found a great design here.  

I've stamped the lovely flowers from a new stamp set Dragonfly Garden using Pretty Peacock.  The flowers are coloured with Daffodil Delight and Pretty Peacock Stampin' Blends.  The flying butterflies were coloured with Pool Party Stampin; Blends.  

I've sponged the background with Petal Pink and Daffodil Delight inks with another new product - blending brushes and I can happily say THIS IS THE BEST BLENDING I have EVER done!  I struggle so much when I'm sponging to get a smooth coverage, and these new brushes really give me some amazing success.  Thankyou Stampin' UP!
