Hello and welcome to another Colour INKspiration Challenge!
You can find Colour INKspiration Challenges on Facebook and there are two challenges every month (on the second and fourth Wednesdays) and what a gorgeous colour combo we have this round.
I was staying with my mum last week and didn’t have time to create something for CI147 before I left; I’m actually running 8 days late with this project and blog post. The colours were just so pretty that I couldn’t let this one slip by; better late than never.

The challenge for CI#147 is to make a paper craft project using all the colours from the chosen colour combination, Very Vanilla, Copper Clay, Pool Party and Lost Lagoon; you may also add Basic White, Crumb Cake, Basic Black or Metallics to your project. We also allow ‘Ivory’ and ‘Bronze’ in the Stampin’ Blends. If you don’t have all the colour palette, feel free to use the closest SU substitute (ie: Pecan Pie instead of Copper Clay).
I decided to re-visit a card fold of mine, tweak it a little and use some gorgeous new products from the current Annual Catalogue. It’s called a Pop-Out Panel Card (with Belly Band) and features the Textured Floral Bundle, Basic Borders Dies and Nested Essentials Dies, along with the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper. However, once you have made the card base you could use any sort of nesting and border dies, along with your choice of stamps and patterned paper. The sky’s the limit as they say.
I love how the colour palette works so well together and was really pleased with the slightly modified design of my card fold.
