Fun Technique with Card Stock Scraps - 2023 - 25 In Colour Farewell - Colour INKspiration Challenge 186

 

Welcome to another Colour INKspiraiton Challenge!  I really do appreciate you popping in knowing that time is precious to everyone.

Colour INKspiration Challenge #186 is a tribute to the retiring 2023-25 In Colours which have been with us for almost two years.  These weren't to everyone's liking however, I really enjoyed having these colours but now it is time to say good-bye.  Don't be too sad as we are about to get five new exciting colours.  The Guest Designer for this Challenge is the amazingly talented Yvon Doensen and I can't wait to see what everyone has created.

My little project is a great one for using up those scraps.  I trimmed one 1/2" strip and two 1/4" strips in each colours. These were laid out then trimmed into different lengths of 2 1/4", 2 1/2" and 2 3/4" and glued into place starting from the top.  I'll be honest and say that there was a little spare space at the bottom once I had glued them all down but I just trimmed that off.

The sentiment was stamped in Pebbled Path and fussy cut and attached to the card front with Dimensionals.

The small embellishments were created by die-cutting two of the small floral/star emblems in each of the five colours and scattering these down the strips.  A little Wink of Stella was added to each one for a little sparkle.  You could use other co-ordinating embellishments as an alternative.
