JAI #350: STAMPIN' UP! FALLING FLOWERS BIRTHDAY CARD

We have a sketch challenge at Just Add Ink this week, thanks to Chantell.  I loved working with this sketch, and can see it being a very handy one to use time and again.

I started off by choosing the following colours, to put together for a feminine birthday card:

Tip Top Taupe and Mint Macaron are two of the five In Colors that will retire at the end of May.  Boohoo  ... I will miss them!  If you love these colours, too, make sure you have the inkpads, ink refills, and cardstock in your stash, while they're still available.

These colours look so nice together, don't you think?

I have listed below all the products used to  make this card.  If you would like to buy them for yourself, clicking on one of the thumbnail images will take you direct to my online store.

Make sure you check out the rest of the Just Add Ink Design Team creations, using this great sketch.

JAI #332: STAMPIN' UP! FALLING FLOWERS BIRTHDAY CARD

We have a colour challenge happening at Just Add Ink this week:

I decided on a dramatic black panel for the front of my card, adding colour in the form of flowers.

When I had white-embossed and assembled the floral elements, I decided the black background looked a little stark.  My plan was to add a few subtle white splotches, but I got a little carried away - ah well, it is what it is!

The rest of the Just Add Ink Design Team have done AMAZING things with this colour combo, so be sure to check out their creations.  We would love for you to play along with us!

Thanks for visiting my blog today.  I have listed below all the Stampin' Up! products I used to make this card.  (Just click on one of the thumbnails if you'd like to shop for them, in my online store.)
