A Colour Challenge for the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop -August 2024

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I am delighted to be taking part in the Ink and Inspiration blog hop for August. 

The challenge this month is to create a card using the colour palette or the photo as our inspiration. I have chosen to use the colours as the starting point for my card and I'm using the Attention Shoppers bundle to create with. I have managed to incorporate nearly all of the colours - Blueberry Bushel is missing; I tried blue flowers, but they just weren't working!

I have a landscape Basic White card base topped with layers of DSP from the To Market set, around which I tied a loopy Linen Thread bow. The shopping bag, bouquet and potted plant are stamped with Basic Gray ink, die cut using the coordinating dies and then coloured with Stampin' Blends. I added some Wink of Stella to the tissue paper wrapping to give it a more metallic look!

The shopping trolley is die cut from Silver Foil sheet (backed with Adhesive sheet for easy application to the card!) to give it the look of an authentic trolly. The items were arranged on my Silicone Mat to ensure they were spaced nicely and fitted into the trolly. After removing the backing to expose the adhesive I could then adhere the trolly to the contents. The pre-loaded trolly sits on Dimensionals above a Spotlight on Nature die cut circle and next to the stamped/fussy cut sentiment.

This shopping trolly card would be perfect to send to anyone in need of a treat or just to say hello! I hope that you are inspired by my card today and that you will continue along the hop to see what the others have created too - click on the names below to enjoy their  projects. We would love to hear from you and so if you have been inspired, please leave a comment.
