JAI 635: Just Add Inspiration

 Hi!


Thanks for joining me for the final Just Add Ink challenge for 2022. Hasn't it been a fabulous year of challenges? To wrap uo the year we have one final Inspiration Challenge, suggested to us by Nikki.


Don't the rich purple and gold decorations look amazing against that lush tree? My eye was caught by the two faceted purple baubles, so I attempted to recreate the look on a Christmas gift tag.

I started by inking some cardstock with Fresh Freesia, Rich Razzleberry and Blackberry Bliss ink, blengins from light to dark across the card. I then cropped the card using my Stitched Triangles Dies. Using the Inspiration Photo as a guide, I laid out the triangles and adhered them to the tag base I'd created.

I used my Vegas Gold Shimmer Paint to splatter the front, and then added some leaves and a sentiment stamped using the Lave, Santa Tag kit stamp set. I couldn't resist adding a few loops of some Gold Thread.

To create my tag base, I took a piece of Whisper White card, folded it in half and cropped it with a Circle Die, ensuring that the die hung over the fold so that the two circles remained joined. A bit more stamping, and I was done!

This challenge will run for a fortnight and is a just for fun challenge over the Christmas/New Year Break. As always, you can link up your project over on the Just Add Ink blog - we'd love to see what you create using the photo for inspiration.

We'll be back in early January with a fun blog hop to kick off another year of Just Add Ink fun.

Bye for now,

Tina
