Hard to believe we’re almost at the end of May; I’ve been so busy at work and ferrying Miss K around to all her netball games and tournaments that it feels like an age since I’ve been able to have some proper dedicated time to get crafty.
First up is a card for:
- Paper Craft Crew Challenge #427 – SImple Stamping
- Just Add Ink #555
- The Flower Challenge #56 – Favourite Flower
I masked off a few panels to sponge the 3 colours from JAI and added a flower from Simon Says Stamp ‘Delicate Flowers’ – I love this stamp set as it’s so versatile and can be coloured or left as an outline only, as I did here.

Next is a card for:
I flipped the sketch on it’s side and added some DSP from the SU ‘Fine Art Floral’ pack and stamped a few of the flowers from the SU ‘Art Gellery’ set; then fussy cut them out and slightly poked my bouquet behind the scallop edged panel. The sentiment is from the SU ‘Big on Birthdays’ set.

My last card is for:
I used an image from ‘Elliot & Marcel – Hugs & Feeling Blue’ by Purple Onion Stamps which I coloured with my Stampin Blends and added a sentiment from Taylored Expressions ‘Simple Strips – Snarky’ – I always tell my Dad that he’s a bit of a dork!

Well, that’s it for today; I’d better do a few chores to get ready for the week. Thanks for stopping by for a look and enjoy the remainder of your weekend.
Looks like you made the most of your crafty time Tristan. Three fabulous cards. Love the colours on the first one. Beautifully blended.

My goodness you did have some fun in your crafty space, Tristan. Love all, but especially the sponged panel card – so simple, yet so striking! Loving the ‘dork’ sentiment on your third card too. I could do with that in my stash. There are a few dorks in my family lol. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink again, it’s always so good to see your creations. x
