Creative Colour Challenges - #CCC204

  Good Evening Everyone,

I run the Creative Colour Challenges blog. Each week three Stampin Up Colours are randomly selected and I ask you to create a projects using those colours! Some week's are easier than others - but what I do find is that there's a lot of inspiration given from those who participate, so I thought that on a Sunday, once I have announced the Winner of the Week's Challenge over on Creative Colour Challenges Blog, I'd hop on over here and share the entries with you in the hope that we can give everyone some more inspiration, and I will link to those I can (as anyone can enter, you don't have to have a blog or a website), so It's also my chance to share there work and show some support.

Thinking of You Kintsugi Inspirations Card. Stamping with Friends Blog Hop - August 2025

 Good Evening Everyone,

It's been a while, but I'm so happy to be back hopping with the fabulous Stamping with Friends group. 

This Hop is Blogger's Choice - so anything goes. I've opted for a simple layout to showcase the beautiful Kintsugi Inspirations DSP. It's lovely colours and gold foil detail makes this so special.

Do you know that the art of Kintsugi originated in Japan and is a technique used to repair broken pottery with gold or other precious metals. It embraces imperfections and finds beauty in the mended cracks rather than trying to hide them. I must say, Stampin' Up! have nailed it with this paper and truly captured the essence of the technique.

I've used a couple of layers of the DSP and cut out some of the vases, adding the sentiment from Beautiful Motifs to finish it off. 

what do you think?







Measurements

Misty Moonlight Card Stock

1pc - 4 1/8" x 11 3/4", scored at 5 7/8"

Basic White Card Stock

1pc - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"

Scrap

Kintsugi Inspirations DSP

1pc - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"

1pc - 3 3/4" x 2 7/8"

3 vases cut from the DSP

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

Take the Misty Moonlight card stock and fold along the score line to create your card base, adding the Basic White piece to the inside.

Add the two pieces of DSP to the card front, centering the smaller piece over the larger mat.

Stamp the sentiment onto a strip of Basic White in Mist Moonlight ink, trim and give angled edges.

Arrange the three vases onto the centre panel, leaving enough room for the sentiment below.

I added the two larger vases with liquid glue, and popped the smaller vase onto dimensionals. The sentiment piece was also pooped up on dimensionals.

I hope you have enjoyed my card today - I really enjoyed playing about with this paper.

Please take a few minutes to continue through the hop to get a huge amount of inspiration from this talented group.
