I'm on a roll!! This is my second colour inspiration challenge in as many weeks. I waasn't over the moon with the colour choices this week but love the result. Its relatively easy to make a card using colours you love or use often but when you have to use colours you wouldn't ordinarily use then it challenges you to push your creativity. Here is the result.....
Supplies used are -
Basic black, whisper white, real red and so saffron Stampin Up cardstock. Always Stampin Up stamp set and Sealed with a kiss Stampin Up stamp set. Basic black ink, versamark, clear embossing powder and so saffron ink, also a real red Stampin Up marker. Very vanilla ribbon, scallop border punch, 1/2" circle punch, paper piercer, stamp-a-majig, fire rhinestone brads and stampin dimensionals also from Stampin Up. I also used the swiss dots cuttlebug embossing folder - one of my faves.
This is a picture of the inside as I love the stamp used from the Sealed with a Kiss stamp set. It is only £12.95 for 6 valentine themed stamps and if you order them now you will get them before Valentines Day.
Thanks for looking
I love this card, it's beautiful, great job.

This is a really beautiful card. I love how you have used the colours together - not an easy challenge to use them together but this looks great.
I notice the 'Always' stamp set isn't available in the UK catalogue - do you know when I will be able to get hold of a set?
