Good Afternoon Everyone
Today I'm taking part in the Ink Stamp Share Monthly Blog Hop and this month we have a Colour Challenge.
Now, this was a particular struggle for me, since we had the refresh with the new annual, I have not yet completed my full ink and card stash so I don't have all the colours yet. I have them in card or ink or both but not a full set yet - so when Bubble Bath and Lemon Lolly appeared - I was a little stumped. But as I was looking through my stash I came across the Enchanted Butterfly stamp set .I realised that I could use black to create my outlines & Images and use coloured card to create the flower petals and leaves!

----------------------------------------------------
Take the larger piece of Black card stock and fold along to score line to create your card base. Add the Basic White piece to the inside with liquid glue and the remaining Basic Black piece to the card front with foam tape or dimensionals.
On the scraps of card stock stamp the following using Memento Black Ink
- One Large flower from Enchanted Butterfly on Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly and Bubble Bath.
- Six leaves from Enchanted Butterfly on Granny Apple Green
- Sentiment from Biggest Wish on Basic White
Fussy cut all these pieces and then place them on the card front using both dimensionals and liquid glue to give different heights.
Add some Basic Rhinestones around the images and it's done!
I hope you have enjoyed my project today - please take a look at the list below and continue through the hop for lots more inspiration using these colours
