Just Add Ink #353...Critters!

Happy Friday friends!

Karren has given us a fun new challenge over at Just Add Ink. She wants us to "Just Add Critters"....So many fun options for this one.

I wasn't 100% sure if this cutie qualified as a "Critter", but according to Mr Google, l have been assured that he works just fine!
He is part of the "Yummy in my Tummy" stamp set from stampin Up! and was a must have from the occasions catalogue...He just makes me smile and was fun to colour!

I pulled out my much neglected Copic markers and although a bit rusty, he came up rather cute l think and l couldn't resist making him a shaker and filling his tummy with sequins...I did struggle with having the right colour sequence in Copics so had to mix & blend tip to tip....It is definitely time to invest in a few more me thinks, as l forgot just how much l love using them.

The rest of the design team have created some fun and fabulous Critter creations, so don't forget to pop over to the challenge blog and check them out.

Just Add Ink #351...Just Add "L"

It's time for another fun challenge over at Just Add Ink. This week want you to just add "L" elements to your projects.

This was lots of fun and l actually created two "L" projects. The first being "Lift your spirits" theme using the Lift me Up bundle and l've added some silver glimmer paper to the clouds as a silver lining.

And for my second project, l've created an easel card using the High Tide stamp set and featured the "Lighthouse" as my "L" element.

The design team have created some great projects featuring a variety of "L" elements, so pop over to the challenge blog and check them out.

Just Add Ink #350...Sketch!

We have a new challenge happening over at Just add Ink. This week Chantell has given us a nice clean sketch to play with.

As it's my dads birthday soon or even for his fathers day, l have created a card using the "Everyday Hero" stamp set and l think the greeting is just perfect...You're never to old for a hero.

The colours are Peekaboo Peach & Basic Grey, with just a hint of the silver glimmer to give it some shine.

The design team have some great ideas using the sketch, so if you are needing a little inspiration to give you a kick start, pop over and check out the challenge blog.

Colour INKspiration #05

It's hop time again over at Colour INKspiration and this week we have some pretty pastels to play with!

So much fab inspiration from the design team, so click the banner above and go take a peek and join us if you can.

I had been itching to ink up the lovely "Special Reason" set and these colours were just perfect. Lot's of layers and texture on this one, not something l normally do, but l felt this set and the colours needed some texture and depth...Pretty happy with the overall effect!

Next on the hop is Rachel and her ever so cute project!

Stamp Review Crew...Rose Wonder!

Welcome to another edition of the Stamp Review Crew. For this one we are showcasing the lovely "Rose Wonder" set.

We got to choose from a couple of the floral sets for this one and thinking l had the full bundle, l chose Rose Wonder....Hmmm, well note to self, check your stamp sets first..lol As l discovered l only had the thinlits and although l was positive l'd purchased the bundle, for the life of me l couldn't find the stamps, so maybe not..:0)

Anyway, after checking it was ok to work with what l had, this was what l created. I've used a wet on wet watercolouring technique using Blushing Bride & Calypso Coral ink refills for the rose and Pear Pizzazz for the greenery.

The whole base received a very liberal dose of Wink of Stella clear which makes it so, so sparkly IRL.
