JAI 777: Just Add Something Seasonal

 Hi!


Welcome back to a new year of Just Add Ink Challenges. As is our tradition, we are starting the year with a blog hop of the Design Team. It's so much fun! We'd love for you to hop around all of our blogs to see what we've made to inspire you.


For our challenge, we are asking you to make Something Seasonal. Yay for me, we are currently in Summer. I find that much easier to make in a card than the other seasons. I guessed that if I lived somewhere that got snow, I might find that easy too, but I don't live in a snowy region.

I decided to use my long-forgotten Ephemera Packs to make my card. I spent a few hours tidying my craft space last week and stumbled over them. I used both the Something For Everyone and the Saying Something packs. It was really hard to narrow down what I wanted to use! 


I started with a layer of DSP from the Dandy Designs DSP on a Thick Whisper White card base. The ice cream, sun and frame are all from the Something For Everyone pack. I used my Wink Of Stella pen to add some shimmer to the ice cream. Sadly, it can't be seen in the photo. The sentiment is from the Saying Something pack. A scattering of sequins finished off the front of the card.


The ice cream on the inside got the same shimmer as the other one - it's so pretty in real life! The Ephemera Packs make crafting so easy. I definitely won't forget them for so long again.

The next stop on the hop is my lovely friend, Narelle. Pop on over to her blog to see her Summery card.


We can't wait to see which season you choose to add to your card. When you're ready, add your card to the Linky over on the Just Add Ink blog. If any of the links are broken along the way, just head to the blog to pick up the link to the next blog from there.

Bye for now,

Tina

Colour Creations: Azure Afternoon

 Hi!


Thanks for joining us for the new Colour Creations Blog Hop. This week we are featuring Azure Afternoon, a gorgeous mid-blue that is a part of the Brights colour family. I decided to play with some new products.

I started by embossing the background cardstock using the Dotted Circles 3DEF. Isn't it gorgeous? I love that it's an extra big folder (6 x 8 1/2 inches) so that you can play with the placement of the centre circle. I wanted it offset so that I could use it to highlight the boat.

Speaking of the boat, and the lighthouse and sun, they are from the new Something For Everything Ephemera Pack. I pretty much just popped them out of the sheet, added some Dimensionals and adhered them to my card. So easy! Because the background is so textured, I added a little bit of Tombow adhesive to the Dimensionals to make them extra grippy.

The sentiments on my card are from the Simply Said stamp set. I couldn't resist adding a second boat to the inside of the card.

That's all from me for tonight, but there's lots more to see on our Blog Hop tonight. Please continue your way around the blogs, with my lovely friend Ros Davidson coming up next.


As always, Cathy Proctor does a marvellous job of keeping everyone organised. If you run into any problems with links, just pop on over to her blog, where she'll have a list of all of tonight's participants to help get you back on track.

Bye for now,

Tina
