Just Add Ink #776 – Choose Two or More

Hello there, it’s time for another Just Add Ink Challenge and do we have a great theme for you. You can choose two or more from – trees-twine-stripes-snow-shimmer-stockings!

I used some Stampin Up products DSP Whimsy & Wonder and Stamp/dies Whimsical Trees. The DSP had trees-stripes-shimmer in it which gave me three of the six items listed. I die cut a variety of the trees and then popped some up once and twice to provide some dimension and interest.

Come join in the fun; we’d love to see how you were inspired. Check out the projects that the other artists at Just Add Ink have created, take the challenge and link your creation to the challenge post. We’d love to have you join us.  You have until Wednesday, 31st December at 7pm (AEDT) Australian Eastern Daylight Time to link up your project.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

AAA Cards #305 – Anything CAS Goes – opt twist White-on-White

Hello there, it’s time for another challenge over at AAA Cards and do we have a great theme for you!

I love a White-on-White card so went with the optional twist. I used a Christmas tree die to cut out my base panel which I popped up with dimensionals and added a sentiment from Uniquely Creative. Can’t get anymore CAS than that right?!

Just Add Ink #775 – Just Add a Celebration

Hello there, it’s time for another Just Add Ink Challenge and do we have a great theme for you!

I chose a birthday for my ‘celebration’. I used Stampin Up cardstock in Petal Pink, Crisp Cantelope, Flirty Flamingo and Calyspo Coral which I cut with my fringe scissors – these scissors are simply the best if you want to make lots of fringe cuts on your papers. I then cut fringes into some gold cardstock and added these strips under the colour cardstock layers. I then die cut a bow from gold glimmer paper which I wrapped around the fringed panel to look like a present. I lastly added a sentiment from uniquely Creative.

AAA Birthday #80 – Box Card

Hello there, it’s time for a new challenge over at AAA Birthday and do we have a great theme for you!

I made a different style of box card, it’s an explosion box card. There are so many versions on YouTube, so check them out to make one you like. A work colleague needed a special card for her dad’s 90th birthday and he loves horses, so I made this exploding card for her to give to him.

I created matt layers with teal and caramel cardstock which I think complimented my horse DSP. The sentiments and box topper were die cuts. I added a bit of tuille behind the topper for a bit of something something! Inside I made a cake with candles on it and I provided her some white card panels for her and her sibings to write their messages on and adhere to the empty caramel areas.
