Just Add Ink #87


This week Just Add Ink have a colour challenge for you, these are 2 of the lovely new "In-Colours" Pool Party & Calypso Coral, 2 of my absolute fav's.....Yummy aren't they!

This was such a joy to make, the stamp set l used is "Field Flowers" and l even pulled out the sewing machine, not something l do very often.
I coloured the Basic Pearls with a Co-Ordinating permanent marker and distressed the edges to soften the overall look.
 l really like how this turned out and am now considering using this design for my Regional swaps.


Couldn't resist playing with the inside too!


All products are Stampin-Up.

Jump over to Just Add Ink and be inspired by the lovely creations from the Design Team.

" Thanks for stopping by"

  1. Are you saying that I misbehave???? The card looks even more beautiful in real life. Thanks, Nikki. I think you'll be trodden on with the stampede if you make this as your design for Regionals!

  4. Nikki this is an absolutely beautiful card and if you make it as a swap for Regionals you had better be prepared for a swamping of swappers!!

    So love this stamp set & now have i in my possession - a case may be in order however my lil sewing machine needs the doctor :-( so maybe piercing instead. Love the colour combo too! I agree these are probably my fav's too,

  7. This beauty takes my breath away, my friend! Not only is Field Flowers one of my favourite new stamp sets, but I adore what you've done with the sentiment tag. Bron is one very lucky birthday girl!
