Hello and welcome to another challenge here on Inspiring Inkin' Challenges and do we have a great one for you as well today! This week's challenge is to use the picture below as inspiration for your projects - you might want to use the colours, the sparkle or the actual birdie, or even all three together!
The side twist is to create your own DSP - no pre-printed DSP allowed at all! A great chance to make use of those background stamps, wheels or other smaller stamps in a set. Anyway here's the picture:
What do you think of this bag then? It's a great inspiration piece but at the whopping price of £3430, probably a little bit out of my price range!!!
And here's what the Inspiring Inkin' design team have come up with! First up is Amy with her gorgeous sparkly birdy card. Amy used 3 different stamps to create all her DSP - looks just like "real" DSP, doesn't it?
Recipe:
Stamps: Vintage Vogue, Dot dot dot, Framed with Love
Paper: Tempting Turqouise, Garden Green, So Saffron, Kraft, Whisper White
Ink: Garden Green, Tempting Turqouise, So Saffron, Whisper White
Accessories: Bird punch, corner rounder punch, eyelet border punch, so saffron ribbon, cosmos glitter
Next is Elaine's cute baby card. I love how she's used all the animal stamps from the new Fox & Friends for the DSP. And can you see the new little Tiny Tags greetings - another new set and a matching punch too.
Recipe:
Stamps: Fox & Friends, Framed with Love, Tiny Tags
Paper: Bashful Blue, Whisper White, Brilliant Blue, Basic Black
Ink: Versamark, Platinum Shimmer Paint, Ballet Blue, Brilliant Blue
Accessories: Extra Large Two Step Bird Punch, Jewelry tag punch, scallop edge punch, pricking mat and tool, heat and stick powder, Dazzling Diamonds, silver elastic cord, black gingham ribbon
And here's mine. I'm the only one of us whose new Bird Punch has yet to arrive. It's currently sitting in a depot in Barking!
Recipe:
Stamps: Good Friend, Tiny Tags
Paper: Bashful Blue, Ballet Blue, Night of Navy, Whisper White
Inks: Bashful Blue, Ballet Blue, Night of Navy
Accessories: Heat 'n' Stick Powder, Dazzlin Diamonds, Night of Navy grosgrain ribbon, Scallop Edge Punch

All the cards are absolutely beautiful but I have a question, how have you got the items from the new mini? I ordered mine 1.30 am on the first of April and I'm really looking forward to getting the parcel next week. Kindest regards - Steph
As Demonstrators we were allowed to place an order as soon as Demo pre-order was available before Mini launch date. Orders for customers could only be placed at 1.00 am on 1 April after Mini launch.Hope your parcel arrives soon. We'd love for you to take part and hope to see one of your creations soon. xx
