Just Add Ink #666 – Photo Inspiration

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

I was inspired by the snow in the picture and decided to make a card for a teenage boy who loves to snowboard. I used a old digital image from Stampin Up called ‘Extreme Snowboard’ which I printed and then fussy cut out. I sponged some mountains in a variety of blue/green inks, used some white ink to replicate the snow being flung up by the board. I tore the top of the sponged panel and stamped the sentiment from Pretty Cute Stamps ‘Game On’ in the corner.

Just Add Ink #664 – Just Add Colour

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

I decided to use a daisy die to create the flowers on my card. I die cut the panel three times and then only stuck down the centres of the die cut panels. This was pretyty fussy and time consuming but I think the end result was worth it!

Just Add Ink #658 – Just Choose Two – scraps/strips/sequins

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

I love it when I can use up some scraps on a card, so I went with scraps & strips. I had a lot of different black and white DSP scraps that I cut into strips. I then added a couple of butterflies I fussy cut from some old Stampin Up DSP ‘Botanical Butterflies’ and a sentiment from the ‘Approaching Perfection’ stampset.

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

I chose Wall/Garden for my card (a fence is a type of wall right?) I used all Stampin Up products on my card; On the Horizon DSP, stamp set and dies plus Beauty of Friendship dies and a miscellaneous flower punch and some pearls.

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 front of the card all closed up!
The card opened up – you can see the pretty DSP and stamping.

Just Add Ink #633 – Colour Combo

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

How cute is this combo? I used the Sweet Sorbet as my main colour with my cardbase and stamping of the SU En Francais and light sponging. I then added small slithers of the Basic Grey and Bermuda Bay under the font panel. To create a bit of pop, I stamped and fussy cut out the main flower from the SSS “Beautiful Flowers’ stamp set and kept it black and white.

Just Add Ink #623 – Just Add Colour Combo

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

I often struggle with colour combos and decided to go with some sponging on a white panel which I then cut with a floral cover die from Paper Roses and added a sentiment from Uniquely Creative.

Love how simple this was to make, yet how pretty it came out!
