Just Add Ink #525 Thank You

 

Hello there,

it's Friday and that means it's time for a new Just Add Ink challenge. This week Chantell is asking us to Just Add Thank You. 

It's hard to go wrong with flowers for thank you cards so I added plenty of them!

Working out the right combination of colours for the layers in the flowers was a very inky process but in the end I was happy with how they all turned out. In case you are curious here are the SU! colour combinations.

Biggest pale flower: Base layer- Blushing Bride, Mid layer - stamped off Magenta Madness, Top detail layer - Melon Mambo

Mid sized mid pink flower: Base layer - Stamped off Magenta Madness, Mid Layer - Magenta Madness, Top detail layer - Merry Merlot

Small darkest flower: Base layer - Melon Mambo, Mid layer - Merry Merlot, Top detail layer - Rich Razzleberry

The leaves were stamped in Mint Macaron and Shaded Spruce.

To add a bit of sparkle all the flowers were stamped on Shimmery White card stock, and then swiped very carefully with Wink of Stella, and a scatter of rhinestones finished it all off.

The Just Add Ink DT have lots of wonderful projects to show you so please go check them out and then come back and join in the challenge.

Thanks for visiting,

Just Add Ink #513 Choose Two

Hello there,

welcome to a new Just Add Ink challenge! This week Di has asked us to Just Choose Two. This time it's Flowers OR Trees OR Texture and you need to choose two of them for your project. My flower stamp collection is ever expanding so the flower choice was obvious and I thought texture was a good match so that's what I went with. 

Here's how it turned out.

Trying to work out the ink combinations for the flowers was a very inky process but in the end I came up with something that I was happy with. For my pink and yellow blooms I worked out that a stamped off layer was actually the best way to get the right shade to start with. I built texture in using several elements  First, I embossed my main panel with the 'Subtle' folder first then the 'Bricks and Mortar' folder. Stitched elements add another layer, then a double layered twine bow* and clear gems, plus a swish of wink of Stella finish it all off. 

*To get the white twine I pulled the blue twine thread out from the Flowers for Every Season twine. I little fiddly but doable.

The Just Add Ink DT have lots of fabulous projects to show you so please go check them out.
