Just Add Ink #771

Hey Everyone

Thanks for joining us here at Just Add Ink! We’re so excited to share with you the first challenge of our new format and hope you’ll embrace the changes and have a ton of fun creating.

For challenge #771 we have expanded our regular Choose Two to now be Choose Two or More! You can use as many of the listed options as you like to feature on your projects, as long as it’s at least two, and don’t forget to tell us in your post which ones you chose. You’ll also have more time to create as we’ve moved from a weekly to bi-weekly (every two weeks) challenge!

I’ve chosen Plants, Pretties and Plaid for my Two or More for this challenge. The images I’ve stamped, watercoloured and fussy cut are from the Gallery Blooms Stamp Set. I then added some diecut leaves from the Charming Day Dies for a dramatic effect under the images as I felt them lacking just by themselves against the DSP.

The team at Just Add Ink have created awesome projects for this challenge, so make sure you head over to the challenge and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by

Cheers

Hey Everyone

Welcome to Friday and the newest challenge at Just Add Ink. This week our challenge for you is a colour challenge. Take a look at the pretty colour combo we have for you to play along with:

Of course I went with flowers as they were the easy choice. A I couldn’t use green, I kept the leaves white. These leaves were diecut with leaf dies from the A Charming Dies. The flower images were stamped from the Gallery Blooms Stamp Set and coloured with all three challenge colours and fussy cut out. I layered them amongst the leaves and added a sentiment. To add some texture, I embossed some rectangle pieces of cardstock and raised them up on Dimensionals.

The team have created wonderful cards to inspire you. Make sure you head over to Just Add Ink and see what they team have come up with.

Thanks for stopping by.

Just Add Ink #762

Hey Everyone

We have a new challenge for you over at Just Add Ink. This week is an inspiration picture challenge. Take a look at the challenge we have for you to play along with:

I initially thought I’d go with coffee images, but changed it up and decided to take the colours from the inspiration pic and add them to my card.

I kept my tones very earthy. I’ve used a mixture of DSP from the Country Lace and Country Woods DSP packs. I then added some background script stamping, from the Elements of Text Stamp Set and added some shading with Crumb Cake Ink to this.

The flowers I’ve used are from the Gallery Blooms Stamp Set. I love the size of this image as it fills up a card so easily. I added some retired Natural Wavy Trim and pulled it apart to create a messiness to it.

The team at Just Add Ink have all created awesome projects. Make sure you head over to Just Add Ink to check them out.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone

It’s time for the newest challenge at Just Add Ink. This week is a colour challenge. Take a look at the colours we have for you to play with:

I was thinking Christmas with these colours but decided I’m not ready yet to start my festive cards. I’ve gone with a feminine floral birthday card instead.

The flowers I’ve coloured up and added to my card are from the Gallery Blooms Stamp Set. I layered these over some pieces of DSP from the Nature’s Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper as they have gold in them.

Thanks for stopping by.

Freshly Made Sketches #693

Hey Everyone

We have a new challenge for you to play along with at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our sketch hostess is the wonderfully talented card creator Amy O’Neill.

I had fun playing along with this challenge. I had a collection of offcut cardstock so all I had to do was adhere them to the partially stamped background with the Just A Note Stamp Set. I then added a hand cut oval shaped cardstock stamped with the script stamp from Element of Text Stamp Set.

To this oval shape, i added some stamped and fussy cut flowers from the Gallery Blooms Stamp Set.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
