Just Add Ink #260

Hey Everyone

We have a new challenge at Just Add Ink and this week I’ve designed the following sketch for you.

JAI260sketch

Not sure how it happens, but when it’s my turn to create a sketch or colour combo I always stumble when it comes time to put my cards together.  I tend to overthink things. Because I’ve been so focussed on swaps and gifts for Stampin’ Up!s Annual South Pacific Convention that I will be attending next week, I fell back on a safe colour combo – Black and White with pop of colour card – it’s what I always do when I’m in doubt. Here’s what I created:

We would love you to join in with this sketch challenge and because a lot of the team will be attending Convention, we will be leaving this challenge open for 2 weeks.  Head over to Just Add Ink and check out the gorgeous inspiration from the Design Team.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Hey Everyone

This weeks challenge at Just Add Ink was suggested by Rochelle – take a look at the pretty colours she has given us to use:

As colour challenges still scare me, I searched around for a sketch that I could use for the layout.  This weeks Mojo Monday sketch really appealed to me.

I finally put in a Stampin’ Up! order and just received Butterfly Basics.  I really love this pretty flower.  I can see it’s going to be my go-to flower stamp for a while. Here’s my card:

Just Add Ink Challenge #169

Hey Everyone

Delys has found a beautiful photo for this weeks inspiration challenge at Just Add Ink. Have a look at these gorgeous colours in the photo:

A few of the girls from the Design Team have gone for very creative backgrounds on their cards, so I decided to give it a go too.  I found this gorgeous card on Pinterest and loved the effect the technique gave to the background.  I took inspiration from the three silhouettes in the photo and added three black banners with a black rolled rose, black buttons and black leaves.  I sponged Midnight Muse and Melon Mambo onto my card, but looking at it now the colours aren’t as vibrant as the inspiration photo.

Anyway, here’s my card:

Just Add Ink #110

Hey Everyone

This is the sketch we were given this week at Just Add Ink:

The sketch threw me a bit at first, I have to admit.  I decided to whip out a canvas I painted about a year ago and had put aside as I didn’t know how to finish it.  I played around with some crafting stuff that I brought at Paperific from about 2 years ago and this is what I came up:

And some close ups:

Head over to Just Add Ink and check out what the other design team members have created. We’d love to see your projects so if you have time, join in!

Thanks for taking a look.
