InspireINK Bloghop July 2020 Theme: In Colours. 12 x 12 inch full sheet stamping with Celebrating Sunflowers, Peaceful Poppies and Beautiful Friendship #stampinup

 

Welcome to the InspireINK Blog Hop for June 2020. The Theme this month is this years new In colours. I absolutely adore this group of colours and they work so well together as a palette.

 

This project is heavily inspired by Ruth from Artfulstampin with Ruth – I will link to Ruth at the bottom of this post after the blog hop links.

I have taken a 12 x 12 sheet of card stock and stamped in a wreath shape. This is my first attempt at doing a full sheet of stampin on 12 x 12 inch cardstock. I stamped with the intention of cutting this up. I have used several stamp sets but the only colours I have used are the 2020 -2022 In Colours. I have used quite a few different stamp sets but you can do something similar using stamps you already have.

Once I was finished stamping I cut the sheet into 4inch squares. and made nine cards.

Each card base is made from a piece of cardstock 5.5 inches x 11 inches and scored at 5.5 inches on the long side when folded on that score you have a 5.5 inch square card base.

one layer of Designer Series paper 5.25 inches square

a layer of In colour card stock 4.25 inch square

I matt and layered up the cards decorating each one with ribbon, enamel dots and sentiments as I thought appropriate at the time. The picture above shows how the bits of my sheet matched up and the picture below shows the cards the right way round as i decided to use each piece. All in all I really enjoyed this project and I am really pleased with the results. Of all the cards I like the middle one the best – which one do you think is best? Please let me know in the comments. 3 people will be chosen at random from the comments and i will send them one of these cards.
