Final new ink colours: Dress Blue & Glam (video tutorial with ink blending)

Today is the last day of the ink reveals! Catherine Poolers final new ink colours: Dress Blue & Glam really add a touch of Luxe to this collection. I love my blues, and Juniper Mist will always be my favourite navy, but Dress Blue is certainly the Party collection Navy we have been waiting for! Also, Glam has such a lovely rich luxurious feel to it. Today’s post also features a video tutorial on all the ink blending combinations I have done over the last few days, so I hope you enjoy it!

In addition, Catherine has updated the Party Collection Colour wheel to include these new colours. You can find that here!

The new ink colours will be available to buy from the 13th of October, or if you’re a StampNation member you will get early access to order on the 12th of October. 

If you want to check out my other colour combos with the other new inks you can find them here:

New Ink Colours: Dress Blue & Glam - ink blending colour combinations

This Glam red-violet is such a rich colour and I paired it with two other colours to add a vibrant purple ombre blend. This blend starts off with Sweet Sixteen, a true violet, and blended this into Flirty Fuschia. Flirty Fuschia is also a red-violet so it blends seamless into Glam

For Dress Blue I create a lovely fresh blue colour combo. I paired it with two blue-green colours: Cummerbund and then into Fiesta. Adding Dress Blue darkens the blend adding richness to the colours. 

New Ink Colours: Dress Blue & Glam - ink colour comparison

You maybe wondering how Dress Blue compares to Suede Shoes. As you can see in this side by side comparison, Dress Blue is darker than Suedes Shoes. 

I also wanted to show you Glam in a side-by-side comparison with Royal Treatment from the Spa collection. As you can see they are similar colours though  Glam is brighter and has more red undertones than Royal Treatment. 

New Ink Colours: Dress Blue & Glam - inspiration

Out of all the three cards I created with the ink colours over the last three days, this is my favourite. I created three painted stripes, blending Glam down into Dress Blue and they mix making a stunning blend. 

Again, I add a few foil details using my foil pen and foam mounted the card panel onto a white card base. 

I finished the card off with a layered Thanks Word die-cut which just pops against the two colours.
