So being so close to Christmas my first thought was a gift box which I needed for a present but I didn't have any paper big enough for the size box I would need. My second thought was to make matching gift cards for the presents under the tree!

So this one was pretty easy for me, I don't have deer stamps or paper so I had no choice but to go with trees and sparkle!

Isn't that an interesting inspiration! Lots of white and red and I don't work with red very often at all.

I found this colour combo hard. I tried several things but nothing looked right. In the end I chose the 'less is more' approach!

I think these have to be my favourite type of challenge because I am not restricted with what I use and for this challenge I have stepped out of my comfort zone and made a green card!

I don't make a lot of 3D projects so I really had to think about this one. I Googled around and looked at some Pinterest and came up with this pretty cool 3D Tunnel Box Card from The Paper Pixie. I had to play with some measurements to make it metric but I basically used the same principals completing the box card such as die placement. My measurements were an A4 piece of cardstock cut in the middle along the short side at 10.5cm and then scored at 12.6cm, 14.6cm, 27.2cm and 29.2cm leaving 0.5cm for the flap to close the box. From memory the two internal pieces were cut to 13.9cm (width) x 10.5cm (height) and the width was scored at 13.25cm from either end. I used the Stitched Rectangle Dies for my cut-outs, reducing in size by one.

I love an easy challenge but this week I've been playing with a lot of watercolouring (and no stamping!) for various cards so I decided to use this for this challenge card too!

I had real visions of making a male card with this combo so nothing actually prepared me for the cuteness that ended up coming out!

I was so pleased to see this sketch, such a simple one but it meant such a wide variety of possibilities! I took the chance to make a nice country-ish birthday card.

Welcome to our laterst Just Add Ink challenge! This week we are asking you to add 'Under The Sea' to your projects!

If ever we have done a challenge and I have found it difficult then this tops them all *lol*. I have no stamps featuring anything from 'Under The Sea' so when a fellow teamie suggested the new Hippo Sale-A-Bration set I thought I had it covered. I mean, who doesn't love a scuba diving hippo?

For this challenge it would have been really easy to have used all 3 but I chose to use Fur and Stitching as my two components along with a long neglected stamp set, Peekaboo Farm.

I'm going to be honest, I had no idea what to do with these colours. Using orange tones for me is akin to using Cajun Craze, I just don't lol.

This challenge meant we really had no restrictions but to recreate our own card, my problem with that was which one do I recreate?

It would have been so easy to use all 3 of these choices for my card today as most of the time you use stencils or masks when using embossing paste and stencils with ink suited my planned idea for this card better.
