Welcome to the Ink & Inspiration Blog hop. Today’s challenge was a Color and/or Photo Challenge. I decided to take the color challenge. Here’s the photo and colors for inspiration.
and here is the card that I was inspired to create using the new Fields in Bloom stamp set.
I used blending brushes to apply the inks so I could get a range of greens. I know my grass isn’t all one shade. You can view the video below to see exactly how I created this card.
Here are the card stock measurements you would need to get started.
- Garden Green Card Base 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
- Melon Mambo Mat 5 1/8″ x 3 7/8″
- Basic White (2) 5 1/4″ x 4″, front one will get trimmed to 3 3/4″ x 5″ after stamping

Here is a second card I made with the same stamps but in a different layout. Which card do you prefer?

Both cards look awesome. I love what you have done with these colours!

Ooh, I love the meadow of flowers. The second card, with all the circles, is my favourite – the little spotlights are just gorgeous.
