Welcome to a new challenge at Colour INKspiration! This challenge is a celebration of Stampin' Up!'s 2022-2024 In Colours: Parakeet Party, Sweet Sorbet, Tahitian Tide, Orchid Oasis and Starry Sky. These crisp new colours will be with us for two years.
For this challenge, you need use a MINIMUM of THREE of the new colours although you can use all five if you want to.
If you haven't played with us before, we are a group of Stampin' Up Demonstrators from the South Pacific. Challenges are shown and entered via our Facebook Group page. If you don't belong, and would like to, click here. Don't forget to answer the three easy questions you'll be asked when you ask to join the group.
Each challenge, Top Picks and a winner are chosen by the crew and the winner offered a chance to Guest Design with us for a future challenge, although there is no Guest Designer for this challenge as we unusually had less than ten entries.
If you don't have an exact challenge colour, feel free to replace it with whatever you have that's closest. - for example Melon Mambo for Sweet Sorbet. Black, White, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand and metallics are free colours, as are flesh toned Stampin' Blends.
These colours are so bright and vibrant! I didn't think that I could, or would use, all five colours but while colouring in this fabulous floral bouquet from Blessings of Home, they all managed to insert themselves into the design!
I used one of the new Split Card Texture dies. This pair of dies is not paired up with any particular stamp set but, as you see, will work with so many sets. I put some Tahitian Tide behind it to give the impression of a bright sky.
The sentiment, stamped in Tahitian Tide, is from the new Seasons of Chic set. This set, is my absolute favourite of the new catalogue, so you'll be seeing plenty of it here in the future!
I like the bright, cheerful nature of these In Colors - I look forward to seeing what everyone makes.
