Just Add Ink #656 – Inspiration Photo

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

I love this photo and it inspired me to get sponging and make a gorgeous sunset background for my Impression Obsession stamp. I used Tim Holtz distress inks in black soot, villanous poision, wilted violet, ripe persimmon and spiced marmalade. I opted for no sentiment so as to not take away from my scene.

Just Add Ink #652 – Just Add a Sketch

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

I recently got this adorable DSP from Stampin Up called ‘Zoo Crew’ that has the cuteset critters that fit perfectly inside one of my circle punches. I punched out the juggling koala, matted him on a punched circle of Pool Party cardstock and then popped him up over a black and white chevron panel. The sentiment is a super old one that I can’t remember it’s name!

Just Add Ink #646 – Inspiration Photo

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

How cute are these cookies? I was inspired by the bunnies and decided to stamp, colour and cut out multiple bunnies from the SSS set ‘Cuddly Critters’. I didn’t want to overwhelm my card so kept the bunnies to the bottom of the card. The sentiment is from a retired Stampin Up set ‘Teeny Tiny Sentiments’.

Just Add Ink #642 – Sketch

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

I love a good sketch and this one really got my creative juices flowing. I decided to make a masculine card and left the sentiment off as I felt it would compromise the overall design. I use a digital hipster image and coloured him with my Stampin Blends. I fussy cut some sunglasses to give him a bit more sass and then popped him up over some layered squares and striped DSP.

Just Add Ink #635 – Inspiration Photo

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

I was inspired by the colours in the photo and the hanging ball chains. I decided to make a fancy fold card called a Mirror Fold, following a tutorial from The Artful Inker. I used all Stampin Up products for my card. The card base was Shaded Spruce, the DSP was Lights Aglow and the stamp sets were Whimsical Trees and Watercolour Christmas. I added a belly band to hold the card together when being posted and a bit of gold thread for that extra bit of sparkle.

The card opened up – you can see the pretty DSP and stamping.
