Inkspiration Colour Challenge #28

Hey everyone!

My blogging behaviour of late has been a little erratic……actually it resembles my life at the moment! LOL! I am holding a fundraiser in August for RACQ CareFlight. We needed this service earlier in the year and they are a fabulous service and they rely on donations and fundraising to help keep them going. I will be putting up a separate post soon about the event in more specific detail.

Now onto this weeks challenge. These colours are nice but I don’t play with them together. They are all strong colours. I usually have one bold colour with a couple of neutrals and/or a lighter colour. So this was definitely a challenge for me.

I would love to say I love my submission………but I only just like it. It’s not my usual style but again…..you have to challenge yourself right??!

Funny enough though I had no Elegant Eggplant CS and I found I couldn’t use a lot of the ink as it looked odd without the CS to back it up! I know…I know I’m strange! LOL

  • Stamp Set– Enjoy Every Moment
  • Cardstock– Pumpkin pie, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White

  1. Kirsty, I LOVE your card! (Sounding a bit like a broken record now, aren’t I?!) Had to look hard to find the Elegant Eggplant, LOL, but I really like the proportions of the other colours you’ve used, with such bold stamp images. LOVE the dotty border below the main panel.

  2. I love what you’ve come up with Kirsty, even if you dont 🙂 I really like your graduating circles along the bottom, and the way you’ve cut out & popped up the greeting on the lines in the circle. Really lovely.

  3. Hi Kirsty,

    its looks quite striking actually! I think you are very cever to have stamped the sentiment circle on the card front and then layered the enjoy above it. Great idea! Oooh and I like the ruffled up choc ribbon too.

  4. I love this card and the colour challenge is a great one as well. I love what you have done with this stamp set. I have finally ordered that one as I have been putting it off. Glad it was in the specials. I will have to have a look in my stash to see if I have any scraps of eggplant, I just love purples.
