Just Add Ink #521 Inspiration

 

Hello there,

well what a change - last week we had snow flakes, this week we had beautiful warm spring days. I really enjoyed sitting in the warm sun streaming in through the windows putting together the pieces for my project. I decided the new challenge from Just Add Ink, this week to Just Add Inspiration from Rachael, was perfect for a Father's day card. Here's the inspiration picture.

And this is what I came up with.

From the inspiration picture I pulled the mix of textured copper, white, green and blue for my project. The key element to masculine cards is texture, lots of texture. So splattered, stitched watercolour base, embossed copper, embossed mountains, heat embossed moon, and wonderfully textured die cut trees - love these!  Combine all those together with some dimension and you get a colourful atmospheric masculine card.

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

Thanks for visiting,

Kim

Just Add Ink #508 'F'

Hello there,
well Winter officially began this week and you can certainly feel it! However, on the upside that does mean quality time snuggled up at home with the heaters on. I did spend a lot of time inside colouring and fussy cutting for this weeks Just Add Ink challenge. This week Tina is asking us to Just Add 'F'. That means the main element of your project must be something beginning with 'F'. It could be an animal - think 'frog", or a technique, think "faux" or a fancy fold like "flip flap" or "flower pot" card. This was a no brainer for me, 'F' is for flowers - and I had some new ones to play with!

Here's how it turned out.

I was thinking wildflower meadow - so lots of different flowers and lots of colours and I got to say I love how it turned out. It took a lot of colouring and a lot of fussy cutting, and I think I used every Blend colour there is, but it's so pretty! All I did to finished it all off was add a swish of Wink of Stella over all the flowers. I love the new embossing folder texture too - sooo versatile.

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

Thanks for visiting,
Kim
