Just Add Ink #779...Sketch!

Happy challenge day friends!

Our Just Add Ink challenge for this one is from Jan and it's such a great simple sketch that creating was so easy!

I've used the gorgeous "Lovely Arrangements" bundle and kept it crisp and clean. Added some simple texture with the Mini Corrugated embossing folder.

Colours are Secret Sea-Old Olive-Basic White.

Time to invest in some White embossing powder also. As with my previous project, it also is not performing as l'd like, although the white is better than the silver.

I've also added some of the pretty "Moody Pallete" glossy dots to finish off.

It's a NEW Colour INKspiration challenge week and Monica has given us some lovely Blue hues for this one!

As l often struggle to create without a green tone, l decided a more masculine theme was going to work for this one, as l have 3 Teen Boy birthdays on the horizon.

Products used were the fun "Gears & Text" stamps, perfect for creating fun backgrounds and the "Words of Beauty" bundle for the sentiment.

To finish off l have added some of the Rainbow Dots (retired) but the colour worked.

Not loving the Silver embossed sentiment, as l have noticed recently that some of my older embossing powders are just not performing...Time to invest in some new ones l think.

Just Add Ink #778...Colour & Inspiration!

 

Happy Friday friends!

 

It's time for a brand new challenge over at Just Add Ink and this one is all about "Colour & Inspiration".

I've gone with the colours on this one, using Stampin Up! Lost Lagoon-Pool Party-Cajun Craze-Crushed Curry-So Saffron-Crumbcake.

I couldn't resist inking up the pretty new Petals of Beauty stamp bundle & the Words of Beauty Dies to create floral birthday card.

I added colour to the leaves using a blender brush and Lost Lagoon inkpad. Extra elements are the Pearls of beauty & Gold Twine bow to finish.

Just Add Ink #777...BLOG HOP!

 

Welcome back to our first Just Add Ink challenge for 2026!

As we always do, we are kicking of the year with a full team "Blog Hop" with the theme of "Add Something Seasonal" for this year.

If you are happily hopping, you would have arrived here from my lovely and talented friend Narelle and her fabulous seasonal project.

As its the middle of Summer here and that generally means beach hangs and finding all sorts of creatures in the shoreline and rock pools.

So the Ocean Friends bundle and Friends of the ocean dsp were an easy choice. Hints of Bermuda Bay & Lemon Lime Twist cardstocks, with the Gold Open Weave trim and some Sunny Day Iridescent dots to add some sparkle.

The sentiment is from the Birthday Celebration stamp set.

We would love you to join in with our hop and share your seasonal projects, wherever you are in the world!

To see what the rest of the team have created, click the NEXT link and continue on the hop to the lovely Jan McQueen

If you get lost along the way, click the challenge link in each post and return to the Just Add Ink challenge blog, where you will find a blog list for all of the design team.

Welcome back to our first Colour INKspiration challenge for 2026.  Lou has provided some lovely colours to create with and you'll have 4 weeks to join in the fun.

I wanted to combine the colours with some new supplies and have used the lovely subtle "Lasting  Linen" BG stamp in crumbcake, with a new fave floral, the "Fragrant Layer" stamp set and popped them all on 2 of the Party Banner diecuts.

Finished it all off with a linen thread bow & some 24-26 In Col shimmer dots.
