Welcome to our 40th Colour INKspiration challenge. As usual we are starting things off with a blog hop to get your creative juices flowing. Here are our challenge colours.
I love all of these colours but really, really, really struggled to make a card using them all together. I struggled so much that I nearly pulled out of the hop. I just could not get my head in the game! I did come up with something but I am not that happy with it. It's a bit daggy and will need a facelift at some stage!
But my crafting session was not all doom and gloom! I did get to use a new stamp set and punch from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalogue that will be live from September 5. I love this Christmas Bulb builder punch. It has 2 stamp sets that coordinate with it. Here I have used the Making Everything Bright stamp set.
There are a lot of different bulbs in this set. I thought the flowers were really cute and paired really nicely with the sentiment from the Perennial Birthday stamp set.
Time was against me to start again. Fortunately for you the rest of the crew have come up with fabulous cards to show you. Make sure you check them all out.
