Just Add Ink 144 - Music

Good Morning Lovelies!

This week at Just Add Ink we're adding Music to our creations.
Music plays such a big part in our lives, with out us even knowing sometimes. Many songs remind us of an event in our past, they make us smile, cry and laugh and you feel great when you sing them out loud!!!

Here is my music inspired creation -



If you'd like any details about this card please shoot me an email or leave a comment.

So why not include music in your creation and share it with us over at Just Add Ink.

You should pop over and check out what the other Design Team members have come up with - may I say no less than amazing!

Happy Friday and I hope you have a great weekend!

Just Add Ink 142 - Sketch

This week at Just Add Ink we've got a very cool sketch to work with!

When I created this card a was in the mood to use some pink.  So pink and white it is!!

 I've taken a little bit of a creative licence with the sketch and instead of using a square I've used my Framelets - Lables Collection.



If you'd like any details about this card just shoot me an email.

Here is the sketch

Hop on over to JAI and check out the inspiration from the other Design Team Members - there are some stunners!

I'm super keen to see your take on this sketch so link up your creation.

Happy Friday!

Home Rennovations

Happy Sunday Bloggy Friends :)

Well as you've noticed I haven't been around much in blog land lately and that's because I've been busy doing home renovations!

We've completed one room so I thought I'd show you the pictures of the progress.





The after shot isn't quite how it will look in the future because we've moved our queen bed in there so we can make a start on the master room.  It's a bit of a tight squeeze with the big bed in this room but hopefully it will only be for a few weeks.

It's taken a little while to get this room down cause we've been doing everything our selves and we've been learning along the way.  With all this renno work it hasn't left me much time for crafting unfortunately.

This is the first room of many so I can't see myself getting back full swing in to crafting for some time yet!!

Once again here is the before and after -



I hope you all enjoyed a little peek into my world right now.

I'm sorry for not commenting on your blogs as much as I have wanted too but believe me I'm still reading them every day :)

Relax and enjoy the rest of your Sunday afternoon!

Just Add Ink 140 - Chevrons

Aren't you just loving chevrons at the moment?  I know I am...... really thinking of adding some into my home decor. I've seen some pretty curtains and cushions on pinterest and I'm seriously considering getting some.

So you might have guessed that this week at Just Add Ink we are adding ^^^CHEVRONS^^^ to our creations.

I've got chevrons on both my papers and do you think I could also include the ends on my ribbon too?


This new cotton ribbon from Stampin' UP! is so easy to work with!  I was worried that it would be very thick but it's so thin and soft.  You can also stamp on it too and I think Christine (one of the other DT members) has done just that for her card this week - love products that are versatile.



Seriously there is some amazing work by the Design Team this week so I really hope you pop over to their blogs and leave them some comment love. All of the DT would love to see your creation so please link up here.

Now get creating!!!!

Get well butterflies!

Hello lovelies!

Today I've got a cute little card to show you that I created using this weeks muse, Julia over at CASE Study.

Her card is square however I decided to use a rectangle layout but think I've kept this card fairly similar to her design.  Julia used pink and craft as the main colours on her card and so have I except I've chosen different hues!!!


BFF gave me the Papillon Potpourri stamp set as part of my birthday present recently so I couldn't wait to put it to use.  The butterflies are so delicate and pretty in this set - heart them!!. 

I've used
Paper - Whisper White, Crumb Cake and Kasiercraft DSP

Ink - Crumb Cake, Pink Pirrouette and Early Espresso
Stamp Set - Papillon Potpourri
Other: White embossing powder, Whisper White ribbon and Rhinestones



This is Julia's card that was the inspiration from CASE Study - 

Happy Monday!
