Hello & welcome to this week's Just Add Ink Challenges Design Team share. This week is a photo inspiration challenge, and the image has a cosy Autumn, Winter feel. I was drawn to the colours, cup of coffee, leaves, and blanket for my card. Here's how it turned out.

JAI 760 colour challenge - Merry Christmas tree easel fold
Hello & welcome to this week's Just Add Ink Challenges Design Team share. This week is a colour challenge with a definite Christmas vibe so I went with a Christmas card with a fun fold using the Season of Elegance paper to carry the colour theme. This is my first Christmas card of 2025 too. Yay for Christmas in July. Here's how my card turned out.

JAI 758 sketch challenge Peaceful View flip window fun fold
Hello & welcome to this week's Just Add Ink Challenges Design Team share. This week is a sketch with really easy elements and possibilities. The circle element reminded me of another favourite fun fold card with a surprise inside so I used a new background (card sized) stamp called Peaceful View as the basis for my card, turning the sketch upside down to fit the focal area I wanted. Here's how it turned out.

JAI 756 Just add a belly band - Gatefold pop up surprise card
Hello & welcome to this week's Just Add Ink Challenges Design Team share, which this week is to add a belly band to a project. I chose to make a gatefold card with a pop up surprise inside, using the Beautiful Butterflies stamps (and bundle) and Everyday Skies patterned paper, and of course a belly band holding it closed. Here's how my card turned out.

JAI 754 Choose Two challenge - Frames and Flowers card set
Hello & welcome to my latest Just Add Ink Challenges Design Team share. This week is a Choose Two challenge, and the choices are to include a die cut, flower, or ribbon.
The Frames and Flowers Specialty Paper pack came immediately to mind as it includes die cut flowers and foliage sheets as well as regular papers. These combined paper and die cut packs lend themselves to easy, quick cards that include lovely details, perfect for when you want to create but not from scratch. I made five cards in the time it would usually take me to make one. Here's how they turned out.

JAI 752 inspiration challenge - Notes & Totes birthday flowers
Hello & welcome to this week's Just Add Ink Challenges Design Team share. This week is a photo inspiration challenge. I was a bit puzzled at first what to do, but then had an idea to replicate the car full of flowers as a fun tote using the new Notes and Totes stamp and die bundle. Here's how my card turned out.

Here's how it turned out.
