Just Add Ink #322...Colour!

The lovely and talented Rochelle has set our Just Add Ink challenge for this week. She has given us a lovely warm combination to create with and as much as my pics are a bit blah, due to incredibly dull weather, l really like it!

Chocolate chip is a colour l rarely reach for these days, so it was nice to show it some love and have another play with "Swirly Birds".

The design team have used various combinations on their projects with stunning results! Make sure you pop over to the challenge blog and have a peek and join us if you can.

Just Add Ink #321...Paper Piecing!

Hey there! We have a fun new challenge happening over at Just Add Ink. This week Patrice would like us to use "Paper Piecing" on our projects.

I haven't done this in ages. I've gone very simple and used dsp strips to create the cake layers from "Build a Birthday" and have created a masculine-ish birthday card. Although it would work perfectly fine for both genders.

The rest of the design team have created some fabulous projects using this technique, so don't forget to stop by and check them out and play along if you can.

Now l'm off to sit on the heater and thaw out. It's on bake mode so it shouldn't take long..:0) Roll on summer!

Just Add Ink #320....Sketch!

Happy Friday! It's time to share a brand new challenge over at Just Add Ink.  Tina has given us a great sketch to play with and l had heaps of fun collage stamping and creating my sample.

I decided to flip it from vertical to horizontal and opted for a cluster of small circles instead of one large.

I've heard of pink elephants, but no so sure on pink dinosaurs..:0) But when you are creating for a pink loving fan, that is obsessed with the "Good Dinosaur" movie, l think it works.

The design team have created some lovely projects, so don't forget to stop by the challenge blog for those.

Just Add Ink #319...Inspiration!

Hey there! It's  new challenge time at Just Add Ink and this week we have some "Christmas Inspiration" from Di.

Yep, it's Christmas in July...:0) A scary thought really! Do you know it's only 171 days until Christmas...Now l'm sure that just brought forth a few groans.

I have to say, l'm in denial and therefore refuse to participate in the Christmas spirit...Not only that, l needed a baby boy card and l think l met the brief, both with need and challenge.

I finally got to have a play with some of the products from the super cute "A Little Foxy" suite in the new annual catalogue from Stampin Up!

Thanks for stopping by!

Just Add Ink #318...Just add "S"

Hey blog friends, it's Just Add Ink challenge time and this week Tina has challenged us to "Just Add "S". This means we were free to add any or as many "S" elements to our projects as we liked.

For my "S" elements, l have added...Spots-Stars-Stripes-Staple and a Stegosaurus complete with Skeleton! Pretty sure l have met the brief on this one..:0)

I've been on a mission of late to down size my not so little dsp stack. Anyone else hoard this stuff too? 

While l was sorting through it all, the man(DH) walked past, shook his head and commented that l'm probably only one sheet short of featuring on an episode of hoarders...lol

So the dsp on this project is well and truly retired, but pretty cute and only about five more sheets to go from this pack..:0)

The design team have some awesome "S" projects to inspire, don't forget to check them out.
