I have kept my card very simple by using 3 papers from Everyday Chic Designer Series Paper.

138445G

This paper is all in Black and white and can be easily coloured by sponging, braying or spritzing..

I have decided to sponged my card with Bermuda Bay making the colour strong at the bottom and taking it back to near white at the top.

By mounting it on black makes the intensity of the colour “POP”

Along with a simple sentiment and a couple sequence this card is complete.

Just add “E”

A challenge using “E”……E for Egg…E for Easter….E for Exciting…

With Easter only days away that could be one theme to run with or you could choose colours/images/Easel fold or even add a tool…Envelope Punch Board maybe.

This is the challenge set by Just Add Ink.

My card is all about Easter….

God gave us his Son to die on the Cross for Us.

His Son the LAMB of God.

The sentiment on the front of the card was printed via the computer.

I love the way that Rochelle Blok (JAI Design Team) made her Cross so I have CASed her idea to make mine.

I loved the way the Cross is tied together with Linen Thread giving it that rustic feel.

I used the Hardwood Stamp to achieve a timber look for the cross.

My lamb is sitting among flowers at the base of the Cross.

I wish you all a very Happy Easter.

I think I need HELP!

I’m having a Challenge ADDICTION.

Oh…the lack of sleep, to complete this challenge.

But guess what…….

I’M LOVING IT!

Yesterday one of my friends mentioned JAI on FB…….

Whats JAI?

So I Googled JAI….came up with actor’s, company’s, but then …there it was ……

“JUST ADD INK”

Wow! Yes I had heard of them but back then I wasn’t ADDICTED to challenges.

Saw the challenge and knew I had to give it ago, it was inspirational, I knew what I wanted to do.

But my family had gone to bed, my DH had gone to bed and I should have been in bed but “NO” here I was cutting, trimming and gluing.

The Challenge was to use these fantastic colours, I love these colours

Don’t they look great together…..

There’s a touch of elegance with the colours of the richness of Blackberry Bliss and Rich Razzleberry…

but then the earthiness of Tip Top Taupe.

So with this card I have framed it for that formal look but then added the Linen thread, Vintage button with a tuft of Blackberry Bliss thread to give it a rustic feel.

Thank you for letting me play along with your Challenge at “Just Add Ink” and if you want to play then have a look at their page.
