Eat The Candy

It's Choose Two or More time at Just Add Ink and this time around our choices are:

For my card I picked spots and stripes, always a great combo, and have them not only on my background papers but also on the sweet little Pup-Bee. 

As I love the sentiment stamp, I planned the whole card around it, lol. All the pieces for the pups were cut from plain card and coloured using inks then assembled. I thought it would be fun for the Woof or Treat (ghost) pup to use a pink sheet rather than white because (a) it looks adorable! and (b) it helps it stand out from the mostly-white background. By the way, how cute is that cat face candy bucket? Love it!

Hopefully there's plenty of loot in their buckets to enjoy! 🍬👅

Materials used:

• stamps - Lovely Legs - Best Witches (Colorado Craft Co)
• dies - Pupkin, Buzzy Pup-Bee, Woof or Treat (all Spellbinders)
• other - papers from Etsy, distress inks, blending brushes, Big Shot, foam squares, MISTI

We hope you'll pick your own two or more items to create with and join the challenge. Check out more samples from the team over on the Just Add Ink blog.

Thanks for popping by.

Warm Wishes - Just Add Ink Challenge #776

It's time once again to Choose Two or More items to create with for the new Just Add Ink challenge.

I actually managed to incorporate all six options on my wintery Christmas card!

It occurred to me that snowmen would not want to hang their stockings by a fire (for obvious reasons, lol), so I figured they'd put them on the tree instead. Here are Chilly and Freezy doing just that. 

All the snow aspects - the ground, snowmen and snow on the tree - were given a  liberal spray with shimmer mist and I also used sparkle texture paste for the falling snow. Here's a better look at that shimmer:

Materials used:

• dies - stitched circle, Chilly and Freezy (Tim Holtz), Snowcapped tree (Waffle Flower), Fireside (Tim Holtz)
• other - blending brushes, shimmer mist, MISTI, foam squares, sparkle texture paste (Tim Holtz), Copic markers, distress inks, black rhinestones, speckles stencil (Tim Holtz), Big Shot, thick white bakers twine, Subsentiments Snow diecut (Waffle Flower)

I hope you'll pick two or more things from the list to create with and join our challenge. Check out the Just Add Ink blog to see which options my team mates chose.

Entering this card in the following challenges:

• Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge of Anything Christmas/Holidays
• Christmas Kickstart challenge of Anything Christmassy
• Double D challenges of Santa and/or Snowman
• The Four Seasons challenge of Anything Goes Winter

Thanks for stopping by.
