Just Add Ink #685...Blog Hop!


Happy New Year everyone!

We are back and hopping for our first Just Add Ink challenge for 2024 and this one is all about "FLOWERS".

With the new year comes a new mini catalogue and Sale-a-bration promotion from Stampin Up! and the first thing on my wish list from those was the beautiful "Enduring Beauty Bundle". I just love that it comes with Stamps-Dies-Masks, that coordinate beautifully.

To start my project, l stamped the large floral image in Staz-on black and used the masks and blending brushes to lay down the colours l wanted as a base.

I have also added some depth to these using Stampin Blends.

Colours for the flowers are Bubble Bath & Fresh Freesia/Pumpkin Pie & Cajun Craze/Lemon Lolly & Crushed Curry.

Foliage l used Lemon Lime Twist, Old Olive & Mossy Meadow.

To add some detail, l used a black fineliner to darken the stamens and white gel pen for highlights.

To finish off l have added a Linen Thread bow, some Silver Sequins and a greeting from the Sending Smiles stamps/dies.



Now you are off to be inspired by the beautiful floral project Jo has created.
