Hey Everyone
It’s Friday so that means a new challenge at Just Add Ink. This week our challenge for you is an inspiration pic challenge. Have a look at all the Christmasy goodness in it:
I took the colours from pic for my card and created a festive card. The products I used are from the Hang An Ornament Bundle. I’ve used both the stamp set and the dies. I then trimmed the holly and candy cane images from the Sentimental Christmas DSP pack.
Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone
It’s Wednesday, so that means a new challenge at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our challenge for you is to create a card using this fab sketch designed by the super talented Kim Singdahlsen.
I love a leafy Xmas card! I’ve used the Regal Distressed Patterns Specialty Designer Series Paper for the strips in the background. I then layered diecuts from the Golden Greenery Dies. I used Pretty Peacock and Basic White Cardstock for my leafy colour. I then wanted to add a statement sentiment. This was created with the Wanted To Say Dies in Pretty Peacock and Basic White Cardstocks also.
Make sure you head over to the challenge and see what the Freshly Made Sketches team have created.
Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone
Ready for a new challenge at Just Add Ink? I am! This week our challenge is a sketch challenge:
I used this weeks sketch to create a festive card for my stash. I’ve inked up the Peaceful Evergreens Stamp Set and stamped the trees in Garden Green and Wild Wheat Inks. I love how Wild Wheat looks liike gold. Because of the goldish tones of the ink, I added a strip of DSP from the Season of Green and Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper pack.
To the cluster of trees, I added a reindeer that has been coloured with my blends. This reindeer is from the Reindeer Fun Stamp Set.
Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone
Newest sketch at Freshly Made Sketches is here for you to play along with. This week Judy Rozema is our sketch hostess. Take a look at her fabulous creations on her blog by clicking here:
I coloured up some bird images from the Winterly Tree Tops Stamp Set and layered them over an oval diecut made with Country Woods DSP. I then stamped up some leaves from the Golden Greenery Stamp Set and fussy cut them out. I added some discarded diecuts leaves, made with the Golden Greenery Dies, just because I had them sitting there and they worked well with the colour combo I was going for.
The team have created wonderful cards that will inspire you, so make sure you head over to the challenge and see what they’ve created.

Hey Everyone
It’s Friday, so that means we have a new challenge for you to play along with over at Just Add Ink. This week our challenge is an inspiration picture challenge. I just love the colours in these pics.
I’ve combined a couple of stamp sets here – the Sentimental Wishes Stamp Set and the retired Notes of Nature Stamp Set. The Notes of Nature stamps gave me the typed background that were in some of the photos.
I then stamped the images from the Sentimental Wishes Stamp Set and lightly coloured them with a combination of my brown and ivory blends. Each of the images were fussy cut out and layered over the stamped background.
I then chose a piece of Nests of Winter DSP as it matched the neutral tones I was going for.
Make sure you head over to Just Add Ink and see what the team have created.
Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone
It’s time for a new challenge at Freshly Made Sketches. Our sketch hostess for this weeks challenge is Jen Mitchell. I just love her sketch as much as I love her creations.
It’s definitely beginning to look like Christmas with this card. These tree images and sentiment are from Peaceful Evergreens Stamp Set. I love fussy cutting and felt they would look good fussy cut out and raised up with Dimensionals. I’ve stamped them in a combination of Basic Gray, Coastal Cabana and Smoky Slate. The background was given a winter-y feel by stamping the ink splatters/snow like stamp from the same stamp set. I then took a Blending Brush and Pool Party Ink and shaded the Basic White Cardstock. To tie it all together I took a piece of DSP from the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper pack and added this to my card. Bling is a must, so I added some Adhesive Backed Sparkle Gems. Finally a sentiment was added, also from the Peaceful Evergreens Stamp Set.
The team have created gorgeous projects with this weeks sketch. Make sure you head over to Freshly Made Sketches and see what they’ve created.
Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone
This weeks challenge at Freshly Made Sketches has been designed by Amy O’Neill. Amy’s creations are always fantastic and full of fab colours.
When you’re time poor, you can’t go past Stampin’ Up!s fabulous designer series papers. I love that they have perfectly coloured images ready to be fussy cut out. This week I have chosen some new to me DSP called Nest of Winter DSP.
I fussy these images out and fussy cut some extra foliage to fill the space on my .card The DSP i”ve used under my images is also from the same pack.
Alli really had to do then was add a diecut and a sentiment. Oh and some shading to the background – coz i love me a bit of shading.
The team have created awesome inspiration for you all. Make sure you head over to Freshly Made Sketches and see what they’ve created. Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone
Friday means a new challenge at Just Add Ink to play along with. This week our challenge for you is to :
Two Christmas cards in two days means I’m on a role!. Again I’ve used products from the Season of Green and Gold Suite. The papers are from the Season of Green and Gold DSP pack. I took the Golden Greenery Dies and diecut the leaves from the papers in this pack. They have been raised with dimensionals as I like height to my cards.
I created a tag that I scored on my paper trimmer and made creases. This has been tied on with gold trim. To add the red element to my card, I stamped up two bells from the Golden Greenery Stamp Set and fussy cut them out.
Thanks for stopping by.
Cheers
