Pretty Pastel Popsicles - Colour INKspiration



Challenges are a great way to stretch your creativity and I've always enjoyed them whether its a sketch or colour challenge. Colour INKspiration is a group of Stampin' Up!® demonstrators creating paper projects inspired by Pinterest colour combinations. These blogs are going to post at 7.00pm on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month. You can post your creations on our FB page, if you'd like to join in.


Don't you love all these pretty soft pastel shades? I had a lot of fun colouring this new Stampin' Up!® SALE-A-Bration stamp in these colours. As there are six colours in this challenge, feel free to use at least 3 and you can also use neutrals, black, white, vanilla, kraft and Sahara Sand.

You can find Tasty Trucks on page 12/13 of the SAB catalogue. The truck sells tacos, pancakes,cupcakes, hot dogs or ice cream - something for every taste!

The big, bold sentiment actually comes from another new stamp in the Occasions Catalogue, Balloon Adventures. I liked the way I was able to colour the letters to match all the colours in the inspiration picture too. LOVE this HUGE greeting too, so dramatic!

SALE-A-Bration is an annual event for Stampin' Up!® from the beginning of January through to the end of March. In Australia, the qualifying order is $90 to qualify for a free pick from the SAB catalogue. This is what made me decide to join as a Stampin' Up!® demonstrator 6 years ago. During this time you can join for the usual $169.00 (but order $235.00 worth of products) plus you get two extra stamp sets. That should be enough to really set you up for some great crafting!!!This offer may not be right for everyone but everyone is welcome to give it a shot. Stampin' Up® is a great company to work for, a very caring bunch of people and the demonstrators support and encourage one another like you wouldn't believe. Do you want to know more? Feel free to contact me (0417 500 681) for more information or check for more information at the top of my page 'Joining Stampin' Up!®'

Cheers, Rachel
