Creative Inspiration with a Colour Combination

 

Here's this month's colour combination:


And here's the project it inspired:


This card features two colours from our new In Color™ Collection, and the bright tones of Strawberry Slush and Timid Tiger are perfect for creating topical plumage for the birds in the Feathered Fun Photopolymer Stamp Set.
 

The twin bird line image from the Feathered Fun set was stamped using Tuxedo Black Memento™ Ink on Basic White Cardstock. The image was then coloured using Lemon Lime Twist Stampin' Blends, and Strawberry Slush and Timid Tiger Stampin' Write Markers (Stampin' Blends could be substituted for a less solid effect). The image was carefully cut out using Paper Snips. The detailed leaf image was stamped multiple times on Basic White Cardstock using Lemon Lime Twist Ink, and the stamped images also carefully cut out.

The solid heart die measuring approximately 3¼" wide from the Hearts of Elegance Dies was used to cut a heart shape from Strawberry Slush Cardstock. This was adhered to a Basic White Cardstock rectangle measuring 3½" x 4¾". The bird element was added to the left-hand side of the heart using Stampin' Dimensionals, and the stamped leaves tucked underneath. The sentiment, from the Hearts of Elegance Photopolymer Stamp Set, was stamped using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and the sentiment carefully cut out in two parts as shown using Paper Snips. The two parts of the sentiment were then adhered to the card panel using Stampin' Dimensionals.

The card panel was adhered to a 4⅞" x 3⅝" Timid Tiger Cardstock rectangle, and the layered panel added to a Lemon Lime Twist folded card base. Timid Tiger Flat Pearls, from the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls, were added as embellishments.
