JAI 607: Just Choose Two

 Hi!

Ahh, I always get to this part of the week with a big sigh. It's Friday, and it's a long weekend, and I'm looking forward to the downtime! What better way to start the weekend with the new Just Add Ink challenge?

This week it's a Choose Two, between coffee, tea and friend. Di suggested this challenge, and the Design Team have certainly had fun with it! After much thought and flicking through my stamp collection, I decided to go with coffee and a Friend.

Hehe, I couldn't resist pulling out my Kindred Stamps set, The One With The Friend. Perfect for this challenge, don't you think? The waitress was the only choice of Friend for my card that could possibly be made.

I paired her with some Ink Road Stamps (The One Where It's Your Birthday) for the background, and framed her with the Friendly Frame diecut, also from Ink Road. I created the background by putting the coffee cup and sentiment on the one block and then stamping them all over the cardstock using Versamark ink. I mostly eyeballed it, but to keep it even, I lined up the coffee cup under the word 'your'. It worked out pretty well!

The coffee mug is from the Kindred Stamps set, and I used it again on the inside. It was coloured with my Copic markers, as was the Friend on the front.

That's all from me for this week's challenge, but your job is just starting. Pop on over to the Just Add Ink blog, where you'll find the rest of this week's Design Team cards. Then you can link up your card, after you've made the difficult choice - which two of tea, coffee or friend will you select?

Bye for now,

Tina
