Creative Colour CHallenges - #CCC260

 Good Morning Everyone,

I hope you are well. Welcome to the next Creative Colour Challenge.

I love playing around with colour combinations and I'm always up for a challenge with varied and different combinations.

What do you think?

I would love to see how you create using these three colours. Feel free to make a project and add it to the list below. You can add your blog details if you wish, or just add an image - it's entirely up to you.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

Click here to enter

So, what is this? I hear you ask?

Well, a while I did a card with a slightly wild colour combo and everyone seemed to love it, so I thought that I would set up a regular challenge blog, so I can share some of my colour combos with you, and in turn we can all get some fabulous inspiration. Some will be more difficult than others, but I will be entering a project myself each week so you can see one idea of how the colours go together.

How does it work?

Every Monday at 10am (GMT) I will add a brand new colour combo for that week. 

You will have until Sunday at 8pm (GMT) to submit entries via an Inlinkz form. You can link this back to your blog if you have one, or just submit a picture if not.

I will announce a winner that evening and then a new challenge starts on Monday Morning.

Don't forget to click follow over on the right!!

See you soon

Simply Leaves Thank You Notecards. Touches of Ink Blog Hop - September 2026

 Good Afternoon Everyone,

Today I'm hopping with the wonderful Touches of Ink group. Each month we hop without a set theme - just the encouragement to create within a suite or a bundle.

I like to have a stack of Thank You cards on hand so they are ready to go when I need one or 4! haha. 

I've chosen to create some super quick and easy Thank You cards to stock up my little pile using the Simply Leaves Bundle for even more ease - I'll used our notecards and envelopes too.

Measurements - Each Notecard

1 notecard (6" x 5", scored at 3")

Basic White Card Stock

1pc - 4 3/4" x 2 3/4"

Scraps

-------------------------

Take the notecard and fold along the scoreline to create your card base.

Ink up the solid leaf image and stamp one vertically in the centre, then one to each side at an angle.

Run a piece of the 3/8" Black Iridescent Ribbon along the bottom edge, covering the stalk of the leaf. Secure on the back. Add glue to this panel and add to the card front.

Cut out three leaves using the Simple leaf punch. 

Stamp the sentiment into the centre of one, and then with some ink and a blending brush add some ink to the edges of the other two.

Add these to the card front over the stamped leaves, offsetting them.

Finally, stamp the sentiment into the centre and then add above the leaves in centre with dimensionals.

I hope you have enjoyed my cards today - please take a few minutes to continue through the hop. Simone is up next, so please go along and say hello
