JAI #620 - Just Add Inspiration

We've a stunning inspiration pic for you this week at Just Add Ink.

That glorious rich blue with a hint of turquoise immediately made me think of uncharted mariner, the latest distress ink colour, which in turn brought water to mind and that's how I ended up with an aquatic themed card!

I just adore the supremely unimpressed expressions on the faces of these fish! 

Materials used:

• stamps - Oddball Fish (Stamping Bella)
• card - basic white, Idea-ology Kraftstock Stack - Warm
• distress/oxide inks - uncharted mariner
• Copic markers - Y11,Y15,Y19,B00,B000,B0000
• other - MISTI, Dimensionals, white embossing powder, heat tool, wave stencil, blending brushes, black marker, 2022-2024 in-colour matte decorative dots (SU)

Pop over to the JAI blog to see how this picture inspired my fellow team mates. 

Thanks for dropping in.

Cheers

• card - tempting turquoise, watercolour
• distress oxide inks - mermaid lagoon, cracked pistachio, salty ocean, blueprint sketch

The sentiment inside will read 'Swim in your own direction'.

Thanks for calling in.
