My Inky Friends Design Challenge No 4

My Inky Friends Design Challenge No 4

Hello Stamping Friends,

I am super excited to be part of a brand new monthly Design Challenge with my fabulous Inky Friends. We are a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators who met through an online community. We get to create something new and have lots of fun along the way. This months challenge is a color challenge.

On each fourth Friday of the month a new challenge will post on the My Inky Friends Blog and I will also post my creation there. You can play along at any time, but if you want to be in the contest, then you need to post your creation within two weeks.  The challenges will focus on finding inspiration from our Catalogs.

Between challenges, we will still have monthly blog hops on the second weekend for even more inspiration!

I struggled with these color, hope you like my creation:

These roses are rather easy to make and I love how they look.

Cutting & Scoring

• Card base in Pear Pizzazz cut at 5 ½” by 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”
• Mat layer in Marina Mist cut at 4″ by 5 ¼”
• Pool Party layer cut at 3 ¾” by 5″
• Pear Pizzazz cut at 4″ by 5 ¼” for leaves
• Whisper White cut at 2 ¾” by 3 ½”
• Blushing Bride cut at 4″ by 5 ¼” roses

Instructions

• Fold base in half
• Before adding the Marina Mist layer I die cut the large flower from Petals & More Thinlits Dies
• Used the Post Script background and stamped with Pool Party Ink onto Pool Party cardstock, sponged the edges and added dots with a Sponge Dauber
• Die cut leaves and added it to the card
• Stamped the flower from the Petal Palette and die cut it out used my Aqua Painter to fill in the flower with Blushing Bride Ink and Leaves with Pear Pizzaz, then fussy cut around it so I could have a border so that the Marina Mist would stand out behind the flowers
• Punched out 4 circles with the 1 ¾” Circle Punch
• Spiraled the Circle and rolled it up to make the rose added it where the roses are and attached it to the card
• Stamped the inside
