Inkspirations Colour Challenge # 36
Hello peoples,
Well that turned out to be quite the week for me! I have just spent the past 3 days on Elijah’s School Camp. We were camping up at Cape Tribulation in the Daintree Rainforest. At first I was really sceptical about the whole event, I mean I had to drive 2.5 hours with 7 boys in my car, and they didn’t provide ear plugs!!! Not to mention Camping is not really in my resume either.
So how did it go? ….it was a blast! I actually really enjoyed it. We had a tight schedule with so many places to visit and things to do, it was exhausting, but very very enjoyable. I was all set to have this post up last night, but came home with a nasty headache so went off to bed early. Feeling much better now which is good.
Since we arrived home from our big trip to Canada etc… I feel like I have been chasing my tail constantly. First all the unpacking and what not, then being terribly sick for 10 days, followed by the Stamp-a-thon prepartaions, and now camp! It has been great but I do really look forward to the days where I can be on top of everything, and also have some stamping time too! I am sure you are looking forward to seeing some creative work too one of these days! Well I promise peeps, it will come, I just have the Stamp-a-thon, my birthday and wedding anniversary along with my trip to Perth to get through, and I promise the creative days will be back!
So onto much more interesting info, the newest challenge for you all! This week we have a colour challenge, and these colours are beautiful together! I hope you love them as much as I did…

Hi Keeshie!
Your card is just so pretty and that tute was awesome too! I’ve never made one of those before so it was lovely to see exactly how to do it - thanks for taking the time to do that!
So glad you had a hoot on the camp - hope you found a powerpoint for the straightener somewhere! roflol

Beautiful card Keesh! Thanks for having me!
Hi Keesh, Sounds like you had a really good time on camp and it wasn’t as bad as you thought it might be. I love the easel card it’s so pretty and the words are fabulous, thanks for sharing it with us. I better get off to my room for some S.A.T creating, one down one to go. See you soon, lots of hugs from Char xx
Hi
I just love the verse used on the Card. A friend gave that verse to me from the Psalms when I was very sick many years ago. Where did you get the stamp. I just love it.
I love your easel card Keesh, they make a card look extra special! Really lovely verse, and pretty dahlias too

Hi Keesh,
I love this colour combo & your card is just delish.
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I needed a card idea for a friend’s 30th so this was perfect timing. I added a link to your tut on my blog post. Pity I didn’t think enough & use this weeks challenge colours, DUH!
