Step Fold Card Design for Colour INKpsiration Crew #CI71

Hello and welcome to this fortnights Colour INKspiration challenge #CI71 😊

If you missed it on the FB page then here is the Challenge Palette for #CI71

It's been a while since I have actually written a blog post. I decided to take a self imposed sabbatical from blogging, as I was finding it all far to time consuming and other areas of my Stampin' Up!® business were beginning to suffer.
When I realised this I decided to concentrate mainly on my home based classes and tutorials. Now I have my monthly classes running smoothly, I am finding I have a little spare time to write about what I am creating once again.

I do hope you enjoy reading about my creations 😊

To create my card I decided on a super simple funfold step card design.

Colour INKspiration Crew Hop #CI63

Hello and welcome to this fortnights Colour INKspiration challenge #CI63 😊

You have reached Kim Oliver - KOCreations Cards. There is a NEXT button a little further down where you will find even more gorgeous projects and inspiration from the Colour INKspiration Crew.

You have joined me from our Guest Designers page Vicki Boucher 😊 I love all the layering in her design and the subtle use of our chosen colours, a very tactile style of card....makes me want to touch it!

If you missed it the here is the Challenge Palette for #CI63

Rococo Rose - Seaside Spray - Gold Foil

This challenge is another beautiful Spring time selection of colours!

SPRING IS HERE!
Can you tell I am excited. I have spent most of last week in my vegie patch pulling weeds from the winter grown vegies and planting seeds in the hothouse. Along with planting a few seedlings in the 1x1m above ground beds.

I grew up helping my Dad in the vegie garden and now my kids love helping me out in our very own vegie patch. When the naughty dog doesn't decide to dig a few up 😕 can you see her foot prints??? I have already have to replant my Cauliflowers 😑

Well enough of what I have been up to and onto my design for this colour challenge

Here is my project for #CI63.

CONGRATULATIONS

#KOCreationsCards #CI63 #StampinUp #FeelsLikeFrost #BirdBallad #Inspiredbynature #BlueBirds

I have slightly modified a Z-fold design, so that the Designer Series Paper design isn't spoiled by the Z-fold Mechanism. I used a gorgeous DSP for my background from the stunning 'Feels Like Frost' 6x6" DSp pack. This DSP is available from the Holiday Catalogue right now and can be used for so many different occasions.

There are so many stunning designs in this pack! I was a little disappointed that I could only choose 1 for my design.
