JAI #351: STAMPIN' UP! BOTANICAL BLOOMS

Tina has set our Just Add Ink challenge this week:

Here's the colour combination I have used:

I have chosen to use lace and leaves, in various forms.  There's a subtly stamped lace background on my card, courtesy of the gorgeous Delicate Details stamp set that's free until the end of the month, with a $90+ purchase of product.  I also used Lace trim in my ribbon treatment.  Leaves appear in the square panel, embossed with the Petal Burst embossing folder, and stamped and die cut Botanical Blooms.

The rest of the Just Add Ink team have come up with some truly beautiful cards this week.  Make sure you check them out, here.

I have listed below all the products used to make this card, which I think could be used as a sympathy, get well, or even "thinking of you" card.  If you would like to buy the products for yourself, clicking on one of the thumbnail images will take you to my online store.

Thanks for visiting my blog today.  I hope you have a great weekend lined up.  I am really looking forward to teaching a card class tomorrow, and attending a big family get-together on Sunday.  You can't beat stamping with friends, and connecting with family!

JAI #316 : JUST ADD STRIPES, WITH STAMPIN' UP! POP OF PINK

Patrice is challenging us, at Just Add Ink this week, to Just Add Stripes to our papercraft project.

I have chosen to use the gorgeous new "Pop of Pink" suite of products for this card; some Designer Series Paper with vertical stripes, and  washi tape with diagonal stripes.  I attached the washi to a strip of Whisper White card, so the pattern showed up nice and clearly, before adhering it to the card front.

Here's my fun Thinking of You card, using these Stampin' Up! colours, with touches of gold:

Melon Mambo

Whisper White

Basic Black

Make sure you check out the rest of the Just Add Ink Design Team's creations; you are sure to be inspired!

Listed below are all the Stampin' Up! products used to make my card.  The Basic Black candy dots in the centres of the Melon Mambo flowers have retired, but everything else is available to buy from my online store; just click on one of the thumbnail images below.

JAI #295: STAMPIN' UP! BOTANICAL BLOOMS BIRTHDAY

Tina has designed a sketch for this week's Just Add Ink challenge:

I had so many new products out on my desk, that I just couldn't decide what to use for my card.  I ended up using four different stamp sets, and three dies ... this wouldn't qualify for the "see how cheap it is to make your own cards?!" award!  Still, I think the result is rather sweet; I hope you enjoy what I came up with.

The sentiment die cut is from Lots of Labels, with the top and bottom trimmed to better suit the size of the stamped sentiment.  The woodgrain backgrounds to the sweet little flowers were created using a stamp from Enjoy the Little Things - there are a few designs that punch out with the 1" square punch.  Hopefully everything else is self-explanatory, but if you do have any questions, please just ask!

Make sure you check out the gorgeous creations the rest of the Design Team have come up with using Tina's sketch.  We'd love to have you play along with us in this challenge.
