JAI # 283 : STAMPIN' UP! REMARKABLE YOU BIRTHDAY CARD

Narelle has created this sketch for us to use, for this week's  Just Add Ink challenge:


 
I recently bought Stampin' Up!'s Remarkable You stamp set; it contains lovely bold outline images, that are great for colouring in.  I stamped, in Jet Black Stazon ink, on watercolour paper, one of the flowers, and coloured it using Blackberry Bliss ink and a blender pen; the intensity of colour is gorgeous.
 
The beautiful paper I've used for the banner, is from the Into the Woods Designer Series Paper pack from the Holiday Catalogue.
 
 
 
Listed below are all the Stampin' Up! products used to make this card.  If you live in Australia, and would like to purchase them for yourself, you can click on one of the thumbnail images to be taken direct to my online store.

JAI #278: STAMPIN' UP! BEST THOUGHTS BIRTHDAY

Our challenge at Just Add Ink this week, set by Nikki, is to use these beautiful bright pics as inspiration to make a card (or other papercraft project):



I stamped the dots, from Dotty Angles, in Pumpkin Pie, Melon Mambo, and Rich Razzleberry ink, on a piece of Whisper White card.  This formed the background for a sparkly orange flower (coloured using blender pens and ink, then covered in Crystal Effects, with a sprinkling of Dazzling Diamonds).

A bit of paper-piercing, some ribbon, and a cute sentiment punched out with my new Washi Label punch, finished off the card.




Here's a closer view of the flower:



I stamped the flower using our new Archival Basic Black ink; beautiful and crisp, with no 'bleeding' of the ink when I used blender pens and ink.  I do now realise that I coloured all of the flower (including leaves) orange ... but am using "creative licence" as my defence!

I've listed below the Stampin' Up! products used to make this card.  NB: Best Thoughts is a set you may only earn for free, with a qualifying order (so the price shown is indicative only).

Make sure you check out the rest of the beautiful work by the Just Add Ink Design Team.  We hope you'll link up your own creation, over on the JAI blog.
