Just Add Ink 193 - Star inspiration!

Happy Friday!

There are only 3 more Friday's till Christmas - OMG and I still haven't done any Christmas shopping. I always have such good intentions to start my Christmas shopping early but it never works out that way.

At least the latest Just Add Ink inspiration picture of stars forced me to make a start on my Christmas cards :)


I really love traditional Christmas colours so it was a no brainer when I picked Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler to make this card.


I really liked the idea of a star Christmas wreath as per the bottom right inspiration picture so I used my wee little star punch to make this wreath. This card was fairly quick to make so I actually made two!!! (woohoo more cards under my belt to go with the presents, when I get them)

Here's the inspiration picture - 
You should pop over to JAI and see the other amazing cards that have been produced by the Design Team and don't forget to link up your creation.

I hope you are having a fab Friday and you've managed to get a bit more Christmas shopping done than I have!

Just Add Ink 191 - Sketch

WOW does Just Add Ink have a great sketch for you this week!   It was soooo much fun to use.

Recently I stayed at my BFF's house for a few nights while I was in her home town for work.  I wanted to send a thank you card to her for being such a fab hostess (she always makes me feel so welcome and has plenty of SaraLee ice cream on hand!) and this sketch was the perfect inspiration.


I had lots of fun playing with washi tape and shimmer mist on this card!


All products on this card are Stampin UP! (except the sentiment - Papertrey Ink) but if you need any details just shoot me an email :)

Here is the sketch -

I'd love to see what you create with this sketch so don't forget to link up here!

Happy Friday

Just Add Ink 187 - Sketch

Happy Friday!

I swear it's baby season - so many people I know are having babies at the moment and they are all first time mums.

The sketch this week at Just Add Ink was the perfect inspiration I needed to create a quick card for a new little bundle that has just arrived.


I had fun mixing my real washi tape with my stamped tape!!! 


Don't forget to pop on over to the JAI blog and check out the beautiful creations from the design team!!

Here is the sketch  -


I'm looking forward to seeing what you create so don't forget to link up with the challenge.


I'm having a fun girly weekend catching up with some of the lovely ladies in my life including attending a baby shower (I'd better get to work on that card!).

I hope you've all got something lovely planned too!

Just Add Ink 185 Colour Combo

Hello Lovelies!

Gosh I can't believe it's been so long since I've been here on  my blog.  I've been renovating my house and haven't been able to get into my craft room or had the time to craft!

Finally I was able to move some things around so I could participate in this weeks colour challenge at Just Add Ink.





I've use a new set of stamps called Simple Sketched that hadn't seen any ink yet!  I really love this set and can see it will get heaps of use in the future.

Here is the colour combo this week (I accidentally used whisper White instead of Very Vanilla - whoops!)


I can't wait to see your entry over at JAI this week!!!
