JAI 729: Just Add Colour

 Hi!

Thanks for once again joining me for the new Just Add Ink Challenge. This week we have a super bright, happy colour combo for you, suggested to us by Kim.

Isn't it fun? There are so many possibilities with this combo. I decided to use a sweet little stamp set that I got as a freebie several years ago, but have never used. It's from Hello Sweetums, and is called Snail Mail.

I started by cropping the Whisper White cardstock using my Paper Rose Studio Nesting Arches die. I turned it into a tag by simply stapling a short length of Petunia Pop ribbon to the top.

The snail was coloured using my Watercolour Pencils. I had to use my Pacific Point pencil instead of Azure Afternoon, and Rich Razzleberry instead of Petunia Pop. You can see in the photo the glitter over the coloured areas - I used my Clear Wink Of Stella pen to blend the pencil and smooth out any pencil lines.

I used my Simply Said stamp set for the sentiments on the front and inside. The DSP is from my Dandy Designs pack.

It was a fun card to make, and to play with the colours. What will you do with them? You can see the rest of the Design Team cards over on the Just Add Ink blog, where you can also find the Linky so that you can enter the challenge.

Bye for now,

Tina

JAI 727: Just Add A Sketch

 Hi!

Welcome to the new Just Add Ink challenge. This week it's one of my favourite types of challenges - a Sketch challenge!

There's a lot of scope to play with this one! I went digging through my pop culture stamps and decided to use a bunch of stamps that haven't seen daylight for a while.

I started with the two characters from Kindred Stamps Science Geeks stamp set. I coloured them with Copics. It's been a while since I really played with Copics - I must get back into it again! The sentiment is from the same set.

I popped them up over a Silver Foil die cut. It's from Uniquely Creative, and is called Orbital Dies. The DSP is from the Full Of Life pack.

I had a tiny little slither of DSP left from the front of the card, so instead of tossing it, I decided to use it under this catch phrase sentiment. It fit so nicely! The stamp is from The Ink Road's Bazinga stamp set.

This was such a fun card to make. I hope that you have fun making your card for the challenge, too. We'd love to see what you make. You can pop on over to the Just Add Ink blog, where you'll see what the rest of the Design Team made for the challenge. You can also link your card via Linky.

Bye for now,

Tina
