JAI #303: Just Add An E

Hi!

Yippee! It's Friday! What have you got planned for the weekend? I'm just a bit excited to be going to see Bryan Adams at A Day On The Green tomorrow night. He's a big favourite of mine and I've seen him in concert nearly every time he's been to Australia. Can't wait!

But in the meantime, it's time for a new Just Add Ink challenge. This week it's one of my letter challenges, and we've selected 'E' for you. To enter, you just need to make a project that is somehow themed using the letter E. It could be a colour, like Elegant Eggplant, or feature something like an envelope, or use a stamp set that starts with E, like Endless Birthday Wishes. Easy, right!

I decided to create a project that was Eastern in feel. I love the Bohemian DSP for these types of projects, especially when it's teamed with Perfect Peacock.

I coloured the peacock with my Blendabilites and then used Glue Dots to secure an Expressions Natural Element (more E's!!) over the top.

I hope you can find something E related to inspire you this week.  See you over at Just Add Ink!

Bye for now,

Tina

JAI #279: Just Add A Sketch

Hi!

Can you believe it's September already? I won't give a countdown until Christmas - that just seems too mean, as it's sneaking up on us ever so quickly!  Anyway, it's a sketch challenge this week at Just Add Ink, and this one was designed by Narelle.

It's an awesome sketch, with heaps of scope for interpretation.  I had fully intended to make a Christmas card, in fact I had the card planned out in my head. However, when I sat down to make it I found myself reaching for the very non-Christmassy Bohemian DSP.

Funny how things turn out like that sometimes!

I chose the 'I Think You're Great' stamp set based totally on the fact that it has this circular sentiment - I thought it was a great way to use the circular element in the sketch.  I added a couple of Crushed Curry Candy Dots to jazz it up a little.  The two strips were just scraps I had lying around that I thought worked really well with the sketch.

I got really stumped on what to do on the inside, so in the end I stamped the Way To Go stamp.  I think it's the first time I've used the stamp!

What do you see in the sketch?  Why don't you head on over to the Just Add Ink blog to see what the rest of the Design Team have created?

Bye for now,

Tina

JAI #264: Just Add A Sketch

Hi!

Are you ready for another Just Add Ink Challenge?

This week Kim has designed a sketch to inspire our creativity.

It's a fabulous sketch and the Design Team have done a great job with it.  I decided to use some of my new Bohemian DSP paired with Perfect Peacock.

I really love the jewel colours in the DSP and thought they worked perfectly with the peacock image.

Just for something different I popped only the stamped circle and left the Bermuda Bay circle flat against the card.  I contemplated putting the Bermuda Bay circle behind the Blacberry Bliss banner, but I don't think it looked as good.

I haven't stamped a sentiment on the inside yet - I'm not sure what I want to put there yet.

I hope you are inspired by Kim's sketch and have time to play along with us at Just Add Ink this week.

Bye for now,

Tina
