JAI 784: Just Add A Sketch

 Hi!


Thanks for joining me for the new Just Add Ink challenge. This week we have a sketch for you, designed by Tristan. The smaller circles made me think of bubbles, but I ended up going in a different direction with my card.


Would you believe that I used five different lots of dies on my card? I was a little surprised when I looked at my stack of supplies! I'd be very impressed if you can name them all.


I started by using Stitched Greenery to create the background of the card. I love the subtle texture it provides. Stitched Leaves was used to crop the leaves, and Pierced Blooms for the flowers. Stylish Shapes was used for the circle, and Textured Notes for the sentiment banner. Phew - did you know all of those?

I used most of the same supplies to finish off the inside of the card. I had a tiny offcut of the Stitched Greenery background, which I layered under another bloom and leaf. The sentiments that I used on my card, both front and inside, are from Simply Said. It felt a bit strange to only use one stamp set after all those sets of dies.but you have to draw the line somewhere!

We'd love to see what you do with this fortnight's sketch. You can see what the rest of the design team created over on the Just Add Ink blog. You'll also find our Linky there, where you an add your card to our challenge gallery.

Bye for now,

Tina

Colour Creations: Starry Sky

 Hi!


Gee whizz! It's Wednesday night again, which means Colour Creations time. This week certainly has rolled past very quickly! This week it's Starry Sky's turn to shine. It's a lovely, deep blue.


I've once again looked to Brian King for colour inspiration. I chose the combo above as it's a more masculine combo, and I thought that it would slot nicely into my In Colour card gift set. You can't go too wrong with red, white and blue for males!

I had to use the retired Stitched Leaves Dies for the Silver Foil accent on my cards, as I don't yet have any of the new masculine stuff! If you were replicating my cards it would be easy enough to use a different accent piece.

That's all from me for tonight, but please don't forget to look at everyones's blog tonight. There's lots of gorgeousness to be found, starting with the lovely Rachel Woollard.


If you run into any issues, please pop on over to the blog of our lovely Hostess, Catherine Proctor. She will have a list of all participants to help get you back on track.

Bye for now,

Tina
