JAI 97 - Inspiration Photo

JAI 97 - Sweet Things - Owls
-1-


The 'silly' season is in full swing and on my very long list of things to do was a set of 'Thank You' cards, so I thought I'd play along for fun and use the beautiful bright colours from JAI's Inspiration Photo Challenge to get me stamping again! A new set of stamps is also great motivation!


I used the colours from the photo and a tiny bit of bling as my inspiration.
SU Colours - Lucky Limeade, Melon Mambo, Pool Party, Poppy Parade


I love owls and was able to find these cute foam stamps (Tiger Tribe).

If you have a spare moment, you could play Spot the Difference ;) with the following cards -

These were pretty simple to whip up and my inspiration came from a card that I had re-pinned on Pinterest (Boy, do I LOVE that site as a source of all things inspirational and crafty!).

I'm on holidays in 5 days (who's counting??) and will have lots more to share over the Summer break.



Happy stamping,

Just Add Colour with a Mini Photo Wallet

Photo Wallet and Butterfly Easel Card The Colour Combo for Just Add Ink's 57th Challenge Butterfly Easel Card I designed a butterfly easel card for my latest project at UStamp with Dawn and Friends using the Punch Bunch Stamp Set . For this challenge I popped the little butterfly from the Bliss Set , added some pearls and stamped the gorgeous flourish from the same SAB stamp set to form the background pattern for both die cut butterflies. I also sponged around the edges with River Rock Ink. PS: Thanks again to Nancy Riley for choosing this card as one of her iPicks for this week! Inside the Photo Wallet This would make a Lovely Hostess Gift (especially for a scrap-booking enthusiast) Complete with Photo Mats Instructions for the Photo Wallet can be found HERE .

Scallop Circle Easel Card Tutorial

Punch Potpourri Scallop Circle Easel Card in the Dynamic Duo of Melon Mambo and Pretty in Pink 1. Score a piece of card stock through the middle (which is double the length of your die) and line up the folded piece over the Scallop Circle Die (SCD) leaving 4 scallops at the top to form the base of your card. This is how it should look after you run it through the Big Shot Machine . 2. Score a line through the middle of the top Scallop Circle and fold upwards. 3. Apply Sticky Strip or glue to half the Scallop Circle as shown above. 4. Cut out a single Scallop Circle in the same colour (Melon Mambo) and stick it to the folded half so the top layer sits up like an easel (The top half that is facing will now be a double layer and the bottom half, a single layer of card stock). 5. Cut two circles using the lighter shade (Pretty In Pink) and attach one to the base of the card. Sponge around the edges with the darker shade of ink before gluing the other circle to the front of the c...

Hi there and welcome to add INK tive designs.   I'm first on the hop for our Friday night CASE-ing the Catty Blog Hop.  We are a group of Stampin' Up! ® Demonstrators who love to use the SU Catalogues for inspiration. This week we are looking at the Mother's Day  section in the Occasions Catalogue - pages 36 and 37. When this post goes live, eight of the CTC Crew will be catching up at an after party on the Gold Coast , at the last Stampin' Up! ®  South Pacific Convention as we know it.  I'm sure I will have some pics to share in another post, so stay tuned. A Planter Box Card for Mum I really, really love my mum because this card took a whole morning to make.  I combined the instructions from two demonstrators, Linda Bauwin and Rebecca Hopper , on Stampin' Connection ,   to make my Planter Box Card. Here's what inspired me on pages 36 and 37 of the Occasions Catty - The Colour Palette from the Pain...
