Colour INKspirations Challenge #91 - Pattern Play

 
Hello and thanks for popping in! 
 
We were given such a colourful pallette to work with for this colour challenge.  I almost felt overwhelmed until I read Lou's fine print which said to use at least three.  That being said, I managed to get all six colours plus some sparkle onto my card which features Pattern Play Photopolymer Stamp Set. I was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest by Grace Balfanz at Crafting Gracefully.
 


 Supplies Needed:
  • Stamp Sets: Pattern Play (background), So Sentimental (sentiment)
  • Dies:  Stitched So Sweetly
  • Cardstock:  Magenta Madness, Whisper White
  • Inks:  Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green, Bermuda Bay, Pretty Peacock, Magneta Madness
  • Shimmery White Embossing Paste
  • Basic Pattern Decorative Masks (polka dots)
  • Adhesives: Tombow Liquid Glue, Dimensionals
  • Cut & Emboss Machine
All supplies for these projects can be found in my Online Store here or alternatively through the Store tab above.
 
I started by trimming a piece of Whisper White cardstock to 1/8" smaller all round than my card front.  I took the lined stamp from Pattern Play stamp set and using only the two outside lines, I created my striped background using the thicker line with Mango Melody and Magenta Madness and the thinner line with Bermuda Bay and Gorgeous Grape.  I used the other stamps from the set to fill in areas between the lines.
 
Once completed, I attached this to the front of my card with Dimensionals.
 
 

I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from So Sentimental stamp set in Magenta Madness and die cut this from the Stitched So Sweetly dies. I arranged a piece of Magenta Madness ribbon underneath and attached this to my card again using Dimensionals.
 
 
I continued the pattern to the inside of my card by stamping the design along the bottom of a piece of Whisper White cardstock and gluing this in with Tombow.

  1. This is quite lovely and very different Monica! The embossing paste stencilled onto the sentiment piece is just brilliant!
