Hey Everyone

Welcome to the newest at Just Add Ink Challenge. This week our challenge for you is to:

Straight away I thought the only thing that I can think of is that Narelle starts with N, but I couldn’t very well throw a photo of myself on a card!

So my next option was was to create a nautical card. Easy peasy when you have the best nautical stamp set sitting on your desk. The Sailing Home Stamp Set images I’ve used are the lighthouse, sailing boat and anchor. These images have been lightly coloured with the Smoky Slate and Pool Party Blends.

I’ve layered Smoky Slate Cardstock on a Basic Gray Cardstock base, with a piece of Basic White Cardstock that the sailing boat is adhered to. Behind the boat, I shaded the background lightly with Pool Party Ink and a Blending Brush. The strip of designer series paper that I added is from the Peaceful Place Specialty Designer Series Paper pack. I chose this piece as it fitted with my mainly monochromatic theme.

I like to have masculine birthday cards up my sleeve, so I added this sentiment from the Artistically Inked Stamp Set, rather than nautical themed ones in the Sailing Home Stamp Set.

The team at Just Add Ink have created wonderful cards so make sure you head over to the challenge and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Narelle
