Just Add Ink #80

It's Just Add Ink challenge time again and this week we have another "Sketch" challenge for you....."A pocket with a flourish"


A pocket is something l had not tried before, so on went the thinking cap and after a disaster or 3 this was what l came up with!
I'm reasonably happy with the end result, although the pic actually makes the Olive ink and gold glitter appear a little garish, when in real life it is quite soft and vintage in appearance.
I really do love this colour combo and this project actually co-ordinates with a Christmas card l made last year.
I used the "Holly Jolly" DSP from SU on my pocket and tag, which will retire at the end of August, but l will admit to ordering some spare to pop away for a rainy day...:0)
Well that's it for today, I'm off to finish preparing for my youngest Daughters "Baby Shower"  tomorrow!
So much to do and SO little playtime...:0)

Head on over to the JAI blog and be totally inspired by the wonderful work from the rest of the design team..as always it is fantastic!

All products used are Stampin-Up!

Thanks as always for stopping by & l hope you all have a fun weekend.
