I love inking up my stamps with various colors. I first ink my stamp with the lightest color and then add the darker color. As long as you start with the lightest color, you should have no worries about mixing the ink on your ink pad. If you fear ruining your ink pads, you could always sponge on multi ink colors instead of inking directly with your ink pad. My card is created based on the Be Square Sketch Challenge at Sunday Stamps. My card is 5 1/2 x 5 1/2″.
I combined it with The Paper Players TicTacToe Challenge-
I went with the top row across (die cut, banner, birthday) though I could also do the diagonal of blue, enamel dots and birthday.
