Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #535


Happy Friday and welcome to my last Just Add Ink challenge for 2020! I cannot believe this year is nearly over, what a year! Anyway, this week we have been asked to add Magical Creatures to our projects!

When I think of magical creatures I think of unicorns, fairies, withces etc but I don't actually have any of these in my supplies! So, my next thought was imaginary and my idea for a Monster card!

Just Add Ink #533 - Just Add 'S'

Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #533


Happy Friday everyone and welcome to another Just Add Ink challenge! This week we have a letter challenge for you!

Letter challenges are quite good and fun because you have a lot of freedom to be creative. Unfortunately my 'S' for this week's challenge came out of necessity rather than choice as I was in need of a sympathy card.

I felt really challenged by this colour combo even though it looks so good. After starting 3 or 4 different projects I finally got something together that I was happy with!

I admit this sketch had me stumped, I really had nothing coming to mind that fit with this sketch so I decided to change path and step outside the box!

Just Add Ink #525 - Just Add 'Thank You'

Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #525


Welcome to our latest Just Add Ink challenge. This week Chantell has asked us to add 'Thank You' to our projects.

Nothing says 'thank you' than a lovely bunch of flowers so I literally ran with that idea and added a bunch to my card!

Just Add Ink #523 - Just Add 'A'

Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #523


It's new challenge time at Just Add Ink and this week we have a letter challenge from Tina - Just Add 'A'!

Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #523


There are lots of things starting with A - objects, stamp sets, techniques - but I chose a stamp set for my 'A' - A Good Man. I combined my challenge card with Father's Day which we celebrated recently here in Australia.

Such a pretty picture! At first I thought wedding card but I have no need for one of those at the moment because no one is getting married! So I went with the next best thing, a birthday card.

Just Add Ink #519 - Colour Challenge

Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #519


Welcome back to another Just Add Ink Challenge! This week we have a colour challenge for you!


Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #519




I chose the colours for this challenge because they are totally my sort of colour combo! I also decided to created 3 cards for this challenge to show that you don't have to throw everything at your cards to make them great. I've created the 3 cards, one for each crafter level - beginner, casual and avid.

The diagonal line on this sketch kind of threw me, I didn't know if I wanted to cut or mix supplies there. I ended up applying the sketch to a portrait card and mixing my layers up to meet the sketch.

Just Add Ink #515 - Just Add Mixed Media

Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #515


We have a new challenge for you today at Just Add Ink! This week we have been asked by Jan to add Mixed Media.

Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #515

To be honest I had never done mixed media before so I was really trying something new!

Just Add Ink #513 - Choose Two Challenge

Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #513


Welcome to our latest Just Add Ink challenge! This week we have a 'choose two' challenge!

My first initial thought for this challenge was to run with my usual flowers and texture but having needed to do a special '80th' birthday card I changed my mind and went for trees and texture instead.

Just Add Ink #511 - Inspiration Challenge

The picture and the earthy tones really suggested a masculine card for this challenge so I took that idea to complete my card.

I'll be honest, I really had no idea what to do with this one! Just by a stroke of luck though my preorder arrived and I began to play.
