Just Add Ink #694 | Colour Challenge

 Hello there stamping friends! I hope that you are having a fantastic week and a fabulous day! It's Friday, Yay, and that means it's time for another Just Add Ink Challenge - Just Add Ink #694 | Colour Challenge.

This week we have a fun colour combo for you using Fresh Freesia, Pretty Peacock and Cajun Craze. We just happen to be using my least favourite Stampin' Up! Colour - Cajun Craze. I know we've all got a colour that we strongly dislike, well mine is Cajun Craze. What is yours? I think I'm still on my first pack of Cajun Craze cardstock and I've been a Stampin' Up! demo for over 10 years! 

I've made a Fun Fold card for you today that I saw on fellow JAI DT Member Di Barnes blog and also Linda Dalke's Instagram a long time ago and have been wating to make it for ages.

 I'm not sure what this Fun Fold is actually called but I'm going to call it the Wing Fold as you'll see in my other photos why I've called it that.

I've used a Basic White base for the card and then layered Fresh Freesia cardstock and the DSP from the Perennial Lavender DSP. Over the DSP I flicked the Pretty Peacock Stampin' Write marker for some inky splatters and then using a Blending Brush added a little Pretty Peacock Ink around the DSP edges for a little layered depth. It's hard to see the blended ink edges here in the photo but I assure you I did do it.

I've decorated the front with some layered circles, using Vellum, Fresh Freesia and Basic White. Two of the circle die cuts come from the New Spotlight on Nature Bundle from the new 2024 - 2025 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue that SU demonstrators can pre order from on 2nd April 2024 and SU customers can purchase from 1st May 2024. It's an amazing catalogue with lots of amazing products! I love it!

I've then used products from the Perennial Lavender Suite to finish layering and embellishing my 'Wing' Fun Fold card.

Once the 'wings' unfold open then there is a panel inside where you can write your message, or if you want you can decorate this panel as well and then use the panel on the back to write your message.

Here on the inside I've used the same DSP and cardstock for some more layering and then added some stamping and some Baker's Twine. 

I do hope that you like my take on this week's challenge colours. I actually liked the addition of Cajun Craze in this colour combo but you probably won't see me use it much more than this. It's still not my favourite. Ha!

Go and check out the design teams take on this week's colours at the Just Add Ink Blog for some inspiration and then come and join in this week's sketch fun! I can't wait to see what you create.
