Hello & welcome to this week's Just Add Ink Challenges Design Team share. This week's challenge was set by me, to choose two of elements from either rainbows, flowers, or shimmer. I couldn't resist creating a rainbow as they're one of the things that always makes me smile. Another favourite is butterflies so they made it onto the card too. Here's how it turned out.

JAI 742 inspiration challenge - leafy get well

Handmade get well card using Stampin Up Country Flowers stamps and dies, and coloured with Stampin Blends alcolhol markers - card by Diane Barnes - colourmehappy - cardmaking - stampinupcards

Hello & welcome to this week's Just Add Ink Challenges Design Team share.
I'm away at the annual Stampin' Up! Onstage event in Brisbane so I'll have to keep this post brief. This week is a photo inspiration challenge featuring a tropical garden scene that I'd love to be able to relax in.  I chose to focus on the tropical plants, furniture, and colours in the image using the Country Flowers stamps and dies bundle. Here's how it turned out.
