Colour INKspiration challenge #CI48

The guys over at Colour INKspiration have a new colour challenge every fortnight on a Wednesday evening.

I love to see what the new combination is and what I can do with it.

I am really thrilled to be a guest for this Colour INKspiration #CI48 blog hop!

Our beautiful colours for this challenge are inspired by the picture below:

Gorgeous isn't it!

I set to work and came up with a couple of cards - one I gave to a friend who needed cheering up. She loved the colours and it certainly put a smile on her face!

Here is the other one that I created with #simplestamping in mind.

I used the Abstract Impressions stamp set which uses two step stamping to get the depth in the image. For the flowers, I used the Blushing Bride as the first impression and then Calypso Coral as the highlight.

For the small flowers (dots) I used Bermuda Bay, stamped off once as the background and then full strength for the highlight. The leaves were Tranquil Tide.

The gold CELEBRATE die-cut, from the Celebrate You set, just finished it off nicely.

Such a lovely combination - try it out for yourself and post your designs at Colour INKspiration Challenges.

Meanwhile, pop over and check out Monique Fielder next.

Kylie's Demonstrator training February Blog Hop.

Thank you for joining us for our Demonstrator Training Blog Hop this month! We are all part of a training program that has the sole purpose of improving our Stampin' Up!® businesses and to learn from a variety of top Stampin' Up!® Demonstrators from around the world. Please be sure to 'HOP' all of the way around to all of the projects on this Blog Hop, there is a list at the bottom of the page that will help you to make your way around. Today I wanted to challenge myself to try something a bit different by showing the versatility of any stamp set - even if it only has a few images - and do three cards with either different techniques or use the stamp in a different way. Maybe even look at the stamps in the set and see what else I can do with them. I thought this would be a good way to show someone, that may be interested in a particular set, or trying to decide, or thinking a particular set didn't do very much, to think again and see the possibilities....

What a great way to get ideas on all the amazing new product than with a card swap! Organised by one of the Crazy Crafters, Nicole, we had to create a card front using anything from the new Occasions Catalogue or Sale-a-bration products - those are the freebies you get for every $AU90 you spend - and that is soooo easy to do once you see what's inside the new catalogue! As the name says, there are new designs for all those upcoming occasions - Valentine's, Easter, Mother's Day, and almost anything ...

Crazy Crafters blog hop with Dena Rekow

This week we are hopping with Dena Rekow and using her blog http:// www.thecreativitycave.com/ as inspiration. I spent so long looking through Dena's blog - not because I couldn't find anything, but because I loved so much! In the end I decided to use this card as my inspiration. I loved the simplicity and the depth created with the different green ink colours used. And here is the card I created. I used the open leaf from Healing Hugs stamp set and stamped it in the colours Pineapple Punch, Mango Melody, Poppy Parade and Lemon Lime Twist - such a juicy fruit mix of colours! I wanted the colours to be uplifting for the sentiment that I used from the Friendly Expressions stamp set. I embossed the background with the Lovely Floral embossing folder to give added dimension and then mounted the embossed and stamped panels on Pineapple Punch. I cut around the sentiment and layered it with dimensionals. A...
