JAI 654 colour challenge - daffodil love and hugs

Hello and welcome! It's colour challenge week at Just Add Ink with a bright and happy combination of Parakeet Party, Tahitian Tide and Daffodil Delight.

You also find me today with laptop troubles so I'm keeping this post short and sweet. For some reason the challenge colours said daffodils to me so that's what I went with using the retired Daffodil dies and my favourite Sending dies. Take a look.

Happy travels - 3d suitcase fun fold birthday card

Hello and welcome!
Today I have something fun and interactive to share with you that I designed and made for Miss C's birthday.

She's heading off on a adventure soon so I thought it would be fun to create a card that looked like a pull along suitcase, complete with moving handle. Of course I had to personalise it for her with a monogram and tag too.

This is how it turned out.

JAI 652 sketch challenge - bottled happiness z fold card

Hello & welcome! It's time to share my latest Just Add Ink challenge card. This week is a sketch challenge, and I've stretched the sketch to make it into a portrait oriented z fold card.

Mystery Card Challenge 2 - seven clean and simple cards

Hello and welcome! Today I'm taking a step back in time to catch up with my last mystery card challenge. Things like crafting got a bit away from me - life and changes you know.

I did make seven, yes seven cards using the challenge cards. Most of the stamps and papers I used are now retired, but it's worth sharing the cards to show you some of the possibilities of the challenge elements.

First up a little reminder of what the challenge elements are -  essentially 3 long strips and 2 squares. Here are the dimensions & the initial challenge post is here.

Hello and welcome! A new catalogue means new In Colors, and this year's colour refresh means LOTS more new colours AND new Stampin' Blends alcohol markers. Hooray!

Stampin' Blends give us double the colour fun because we get a light and dark shade in each colour. I love seeing all the new marker shades together.

My Colour Chart makes it easy to find shades to blend together and keep a record of which colours you have and need. And it's so pretty coloured in. Take a look!
