INKSPIRATIONS COLOUR CHALLENGE #30

I got a burst of late-night inspiration, to make a little card for Makeesha's Inkspirations challenge tonight.  I think I've panicked because, after 6 days off, I actually have to go to work tomorrow.  Amazing how getting off the computer for half an hour can be quite productive!


The 'challenge' (and I use that term loosely) was to use these yummy colours together:


Makeesha-colour-challenge-30-1


I wanted my card to be smaller than a full-sized card, so I used one of my trusty Pendant Notes (*love*).  I simply cut a panel of Rich Razzleberry card to cover the die-cut design on the inside of the card, and covered the front of the card with my creation, which looks like this (photographed in less-than-ideal conditions at 11.00pm):


Inkspirations colour challenge 30

Stamps: Very Vintage jumbo wheel, All A Flutter, Short & Sweet

Card: Kraft Pendant Note, Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry

Ink: Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive stampin' pads, Sahara Sand stampin' pad & marker

Other: Watercolour paper, Aquapainter, Old Olive brads, Word Window Punch, Whisper White taffeta ribbon, sponge daubers, edge distressing tool, paper snips
