JAI 781: Just Add Wings

 Hi!

Hello, and welcome to the new Just Add Ink challenge. This week we have a challenge suggested to us by Kerry, and it's to Just Add Wings.

My first thought was to use a fairy, and then I thought about a plane. However, while browsing for any plane stamp sets I may have, I found this cutie-patootie little dragon, who most definitely has wings. Sold!

He's from the Inspiration Squad stamp set, and was coloured using my Stampin' Blends. I fussy cut him and popped him up over a Stitched Shapes circle die cut that had been stamped with a sentiment from Simply Said.

This was all popped up over some DSP from the Lily Pond Lane pack. The predominant colour is Pretty Peacock, one of my all-time favourite SU colours.

The inside of my card was finished off with a left over strip of DSP and a sentiment from the Inspiration Squad stamp set. I love the handwritten font in this set. 

Of course, as soon as I finished my card, I thought of all the pop culture stamps I have that have space ships *with wings* that I could have used! Oh well, another time!

I'd love to see what you think of when you're asked to Just Add Wings. Pop on over to the Just Add Ink blog to see what the rest of the Design team have thought of. You can also add your card to our Linky to enter the challenge.

Bye for now,

JAI 764: Just Choose Two

 Hi!

Welcome to the new Just Add Ink challenge. This week we have a Just Choose Two challenge for you, suggested to us by Nikki.

Which combination of Pearls, Patterned Paper or Pastels will you choose? I'm not usually a pastel person, but something about it called to me this time. I also had my Inspiration Squad stamp set on my desk and thought that a pastel dragon would be super cute!

What do you think? Was I right? I coloured him with my Soft Sea Foam, Petal Pink and Ivory Stampin' Blends.

I fussy cut him out and the popped him up over a Stylish Shapes circle die cut. I used the same die set to crop the sentiment, from Simply Said. A scattering of Party Dots in Pretty In Pink finished off the front of the card.

The Patterned Paper that I used was from a 2024-26 In Colour DSP pack. I'm a sucker for stripes, and the delicate stripes on the paper worked well with the pastel theme. While I used the stripes horizontally on the front, I chose to use them vertically on the inside, along with a second dragon. He's so cute!

I can't wait to see what you choose to use on your card. You can pop on over to the Just Add Ink blog, where you'll see what the rest of the Design Team chose. You can also link up your card when you're ready to enter the challenge.

Bye for now,
