Hey Everyone

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

I’ve used the challenge colours to create a card full of butterflies. These cluster of butterflies are from the Sketched Butterflies Stamp Set. To add some interest to the background, I added some diecut coral made with the Beauty of the Deep Dies. To create the coral background, I watercoloured some Thick Basic White Cardstock with Gorgeous Grape and Azure Afternoon Inks and once it was dried, i diecut to pieces and adhered them to the background.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Freshly Made Sketches #613

Hey Everyone

There’s a new sketch to play along with at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our sketch hostess is the fabulously talented Kim Singdahlsen.

I loooooove a great sketch like this. So easy to come up with a card when you’ve got a design as a starting point for your card.

I added a textured background, fake watercoloured background and layered oceanic images. I like pairing sets as I get more use out of them if they work really well together. The fish and lure images I’ve added are from the Gone Fishing Stamp Set. I added some coral that has been diecut with the Beauty of the Deep Dies.

The team have created wonderful projects. Make sure you head over to the challenge and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Freshly Made Sketches #589

Hey Everyone

It’s Wednesday, so that means a new sketch challenge to play along with at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our sketch has been designed by Linda Callahan. Linda’s card are always perfect with the best images and matching sentiments. Even though I had Linda’s sketch in front of me, I kinda stuck the middle strip under the circle – but I figure it was close enough – and hope she forgives me….

The stamp set I’ve decorated my card with is called Beauty of the Deep Stamp Set. I’ve also used die cuts from the matching Beauty of the Deep Dies. I created a sort of port hole by using circle dies and small dots cut with one of my expired tag punches. This little circle is the hole that was cut out of the top of the tag. I added this blue strip of DSP from the Countryside Inn DSP pack because it felt a bit nautical to me with the stripes.

The team have created awesome cards with this weeks sketch. Head over to Freshly Made Sketches and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.
