Brilliant Wings for CI 116

 


Welcome to the latest challenge at Colour INKspiration.  This so very pretty palette was chosen by Crew Member, Cheryll Miller. 


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. The guest designer this challenge is Bernie Roodt.

If you don't have an exact challenge colour, feel free to replace it with whatever you have that's closest. - for example Rich Razzleberry for Blackberry Bliss. Black, White, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand and metallics are free colours, as are flesh toned Stampin' Blends.

Initially, I struggled with this because the colours shouted floral at me. That got my contrary side up and I decided I would not go floral. I almost gave in though until a hunt through my collection reminded me of my wonderful Butterfly Brilliance bundle. I loved it so much I got rid of all my other much loved butterfly stamp sets and dies... something I occasionally have a pang of regret about. 😀


I had in mind a garden wall, a summer's day, a pretty tree and a butterfly about to take wing, I'm happy with how this turned out!


If you'd like to see how I made it, then I have a video on my You Tube channel you can view. If you have a go with your own version, I'd love to see how it turns out.
