Good Morning everyone!

Over at Just Add Ink the lovely Lou has given us this neutral tone, beach image as inspiration for our projects this week.

I decided to step outside my colour comfort zone and use the colours with a set l would normally do bold and bright.

I just love the "Poppy Moments" bundle, as it has some really beautiful die shapes. One of which l used to create a lace look panel for the insert.

Lots of of lovely inspo from the rest of the design team, so make sure you pop over the challenge blog and have a peek!

Colour INKspirations #73

Happy hump day all!

Over at Colour INKspiration challenges, the team are creating with this lovely soft colour palette this week.

Just Add Ink #495...Rainbow!

Good Morning!

We have a brand new Just Add Ink challenge happening today and this week Rochelle has challenged us to add "Rainbows" to our projects.

As you can see it doesn't have to be literally a rainbow as such. I have gone with a rainbow of Balloons, created by die cutting with the "Lion Head" die from "Bonanza Buddies" on window sheet to create a stencil and sponged the colour over that, directly onto the cardstock to create each balloon...then speckling with water to create the dots...Lots of fun and l love being able to stretch my supplies in alternate ways.

I then used the bow image to add the strings and some strips of the Golden Honey SAB dsp and some sequins to finish off. 

The sentiments are from the Happy Birthday To You, SAB stamp set and Label Me Bold.

My colours are  Gorgeous Grape-Bermuda Bay-Granny Apple Green-Mango melody-Flirty Flamingo.

Lots of fun and colourful creations from the rest of the design team over on the challenge blog, so make sure you pop over for a peek!

Hey friends!

The greeting is from the "Label Me Bold" stamp set, another new fave....CAS, short and sweet from me this week.

Just Add Ink #493...Choose Two!

Good Morning!

This weeks Just Add Ink challenge from Patrice, is all about choice! We get to choose 2 of the options above to add to our projects...I love these challenges, always fun trying to decide!

I have chosen the super cute and pretty "All Dressed Up" bundle which gives me instant stitching and buttons, plus those very dainty blooms and images to colour.
The cardstock is non SU from my stash and it worked beautifully colourwise with some retired Cucumber Crush dsp and Lovely Lipstick blends...My aim this year is to use up my abundance of cardstocks and dsps that l've had for ages and are no longer current or not SU....Need to make room for "New".

The card inspiration came from one that Stampin Ups! CEO Shelly Gardner created...The fold had me intrigued, so after a few failed attempts, l finally got the sizing l was happy with.

The rest of the design team have created some great "Choose Two" projects, so make sure you stop by the challenge blog and have a look.
