FF@F'o'clock'ish, 11th January 2019

Welcome back to FF@F'o'clock'ish, it's lovely to have you visit.

This week I am sharing with you a lovely surprise I received this week. I entered a colour challenge via a Facebook page called "Colour INKspiration" I'd only joined recently so had not taken part before and woohoo, the very last one of 2018 I entered, number 48, and I won.

To win you actually have to be voted for. So all of those lovely people who voted for me, thank you so much! Below is the card I created along with the photo for inspiration. I have won a guest designer spot for February 2019! Yay, what a great way to start 2019!

No photo description available.

Below is the photo we had been given to take inspiration from. There were many wonderful creations so I feel rather blessed to have been chosen by my peers as the winner!

It's the most amazing photo too. Below is a list of the products I used to create my winning entry. Want to know how I did it? Leave a comment and I'll endeavour to create a tutorial video for you all!. A short post this FF@F because I have to head back to my father's again. He has been taken to hospital again on Thursday morning and they are keeping him in overnight this time. I will be seeing my own gp tomorrow then heading up to the central coast straight afterwards.

So til next time

happy stamping, colouring & creating!

Colour INKspiration challenge #48

Surprise! A post on a Saturday.

(29th December 2018)

I recently joined a closed Facebook Group called Colour INKspirations. It's a group that posts 2 challenges per month approximately. You create using their colour theme and post it to the group. This is what I created using their photo as inspiration for my colour scheme. I saw a beach in that photo but didn't really want to go down that path so stuck to using just the colours and a new stamp coming next month.

This is the photo for #48 'ink'spiration, the final one for 2018! No automatic alt text available.

And here is my creation using those colours. I think I hit the brief ok if I do say so myself!

This beautiful floral stamp set will be available from 3rd January 2019, isn't it beautiful! I've stamped it using Versamark ink onto water colour paper, heat embossed it with white embossing powder. Then I saturated the paper with water. Using an aqua painter brush I picked up ink from the lids of my ink pads (yes I still have the old styled ones) and let the colour bleed where I wanted it to go. Loved making this, love water colouring. But I recon a lot of you knew that already hey?

Thanks for visiting. May 2019 bring all the love, happiness & peace in the world,

til next time,

Happy New Year and remember,

keep on

stamping, colouring & creating!
