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.

Cheers

Hey Everyone

I chose the Frosted Forest Bundle for my stencilling. I stencilled only the tree in the foreground, and stamped the tree in the background. I added touches of the dark Basic Black Blend to the stencilled image to give it more definition like the stamped image.

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

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.

Hey Everyone

We have a new challenge for you to play along with at Just Add Ink. This week our challenge is for you to:

I’ve created a card that has embossing and a white background. I guess you could also say blending as I have used my blends to colour the flowers from the Flowers of Beauty Stamp Set.

I’ve taken my Stylish Shapes Dies and created some banners, a circle as well as a square frame. I then placed my flowers amongst the diecuts.

The team at Just Add Ink have created awesome cards that will inspire you. Head over to Just Add Ink and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone

We have a new challenge at Just Add Ink for you to play along with. This week is a sketch challenge. Take a look at our fab sketch:

I love getting new goodies to play with. I looked at this sketch and decided the clouds from the Adventurous Sky Bundle. After stamping the clouds, giving them some colour and fussy cutting them out, I stamped some planes and gave them the same treatment. The background has been shaded with Pool Party Ink and a Blending Brush.

The team have created awesome creations using the sketch. Make sure you head over to Just Add Ink and see what they’ve created.

Hey Everyone

It’s Friday here in Australia, so that means a new challenge at Just Add Ink. This week our challenge is

Stampin’ Up! DSPs are not only for using in the background, they also have pretty images ready to be fussy cut and placed on your projects.

The bird images I’ve fussy cut are from the Flight and Airy DSP. I inked up some leaves from the Gorgeously Made Stamp Set and cut them out. I then took the script background stamp and stamped it randomly in the background. Over this, I took a blending brush and Balmy Blue Ink and shaded over the stamped area.

Because I had a die cut leaf from the Gorgeously Made Dies, I added this also. Nothing like having a full background to my card.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

I’ve created a grungy leafy card made with the Noters of Nature Stamp Set and Notes of Nature Dies. I love the combination of background stamps and leaves this set has. I’ve added in some die cut leaves made with the Notes of Nature Dies to the side of the sketch as well as a sentiment and twine. The strip of DSP I took inspiration from for the colour scheme on my card is called Softly Stippled Designer Series Paper.

Hey Everyone

Welcome to our first challenge for 2024 at Just Add Ink. As always, our first challenge is a blog hop. Make sure you go for a tour and see the gorgeous creations the Just Add Ink Design Team have created.

Our challenge for you is to:

This challenge is right up my alley. Just Add Flowers? Yes pls!

I sat down at my desk and took out the Stippled Rose Stamp Set. I am loving the artwork in these roses and gave them colour with my Fresh Freesia Blends. The leaves were coloured with a combination of Mint Macaron Blends and a green Watercolor Pencil – I forgot what colour it is though…

I embossed three squares of Basic White Cardstock with a Basics 3D Embossing Folder and added a strip of ribbon to the one on the top right.

The next hop along the way is my very crafty friend Ann Alexander. Click here or on the badge below to take you to her blog and to continue the hop.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone

It’s time for a new challenge at Just Add Ink. This week our challenge for you is to:

I have filled my card with pink and purple pansies. These pansy images are from the Pansy Patch Stamp Set. The leaves were cut with Basic White Cardstock and Textured Floral Dies. After choosing the colours for my pansies, I then chose the remainder of my card colours to match them.

I shaded the background behind the pansies with a Blending Brush and an mask from the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks.

The sentiment I added is actually one solid sentiment, but I decided to trim it in half to and layer it in two places over the flowers.

I added some coloured Linen Thread and added a bow on the side of the card. I also had diecut book edge that I had sitting on my desk, so this was added to the card.

The team have created wonderful cards using this weeks sketch, so head over to Just Add Ink and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.
