Just Add Ink # 105 – Colour Combo

 It’s Colour Combo time.  Here are the colours, they are really beautiful………

To me – I thought these colours were quite girly and pretty.   However, I decided to use them on a boys card.   

I just loved playing with this Stamp Set – it’s called Dinoroar.  They are so cute and can be used for both Boys and Girls.

 

The Design Team have put together some beautiful projects using these Colours – go to Just Add Ink and check them out.

JAI # 94 – Sketch

The Just Add Ink Sketch challenge this week is a round sketch.   It really made me want to make a card with Flowers and Butterflies on it……..but then again……..I thought I would do something different.  So looking at my stamps I selected a new Stamp set – that I have only used a few times so far.   It’s called Under the Big Top and includes a selection of great little Circus characters.  I also used the Designer Series Papers that match the Stamp set – Big Top Birthday.  This helped me decide on the colours for my project – Real Red, Tempting Turquoise, Daffodil Delight and Whisper White.

Rather than making a circular card, I decided to put my circle onto my card.  I embossed the bottom portion of the card with the Petals a Plenty Embossing Folder and added some Linen Thread embellishments up the top.

Just Add Ink # 85 – Baby Projects

Yesterday, I found out one of my friends is having a baby……. how exciting!  It’s been making me smile ever since.   So how timely is the Just Add Ink Challenge this week?  Cause it’s all about Baby Projects and Cards.  The Just Add Ink Design Team have made some beautiful Baby Cards and Projects……check them out here.  `But don’t forget to check my project out below…….

I used my little Owl Punch to make this Baby Card……. I think it would look equally great in Blue, Green or Lemon too…..

And…..Congratulations to my preggy friend…. I’m really happy for you and wish you a wonderful and healthy pregnancy and Baby.

Just Add Ink # 70 – Sketch

Far out – 70 Just Add Ink Challenges so far – can you believe it.  Isn’t that wonderful?

So I hope you join in and play along with # 70 which is a Sketch Challenge.  It is a round Sketch……

There is so much you could do with this sketch – here is the card I did

When I made this card I had been making Kid’s Cards…..so I used the little owl and brayered a background for him

Here is is open……

I really like how the leaves/branches came out actually – it as a bit of tricky cutting and glueing but worth it I think.

You should see what the other girls have made – awesome man…..check them out here at Just Add Ink.

Party Party Party…..

This week, my littlie is turning 5!
I can’t believe it – where has the time gone?   So it’s time for us to celebrate.

I made some special invites for her – as we had a Princess / Pink themed party.

I was going to help her hand them out at school….however she firmly told me ”I can manage by my own”!  So off she went with her invites to deliver them to her friends.
I did a few different colours.  Here they all are……

Here’s the Birthday Girl, after blowing out her candles – everyone was singing Happy Birthday. 

How’s this for a cake?

We had a great party – and I think we are all quite tired now – well I know I am anyway!   Haa haa ha

The Aliens Have Landed!

Today we are off to a Birthday Party.  My friends boy Kyle is going to be 9 – he is into Monsters and Aliens.  So I decided to make him a Space-ship card.   It was quick and easy to put together.  A bit of fun for the afternoon.  I did it so both sides of the card are the same.
