Julie Edmonds just started a Color Challenge Blog for My Create, Ink, that goes hand-in-hand with My Create, Ink, Color Lab. I joined as one of the Design Team for the blog.

Our first challenge was to create a sample with these colors: Baha Breeze, Pear Pizazz, Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla. Fortunately, I still had some Baha Breeze CS from when it was one of the In Colors, but I didn’t have the ink for it. I also just ordered the new In Color CS but don’t have the inks. So I had to be kind of creative to make my card.

I used Because I Care Hostess set to do the stamping on this card with Chocolate Chip ink. Then using a piece of torn paper to cover the bottom edge, I sponged the rest of the card. The flower is made using the Scallop Circle Punch and Boho Blossoms Punch. I ran the Scallop Circle through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder and the Boho Blossoms piece through with the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslit. I punched the leaves out with the Small Oval Punch and ran them through the Crimper. Then I added some leaves from the Extra Large Two Step Bird Punch. The final touch was to add some Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to the flower and leaves.

My Create, Ink, will be starting weekly color challenges soon and I will be doing those in place of my own color challenges. Feel free to join us and be inspired.
