Just Add Ink # 250

Today in Melbourne we have been enjoying the cool change after the heat yesterday - and although it will be short lived apparently, it has been very welcome!

Now this week at Just Add Ink we have an awesome Photo for the Challenge inspiration. So there are many different directions you can take this I think :-) The Design Team have made some wonderful projects to inspire you so I hope you can take a moment to pop on over and have a look.


It will be no surprise to some that Pink is one of my favourite colours  - and I do love the polka dots here too ( so pretty!!) And did you notice the little pop of multicoloured DSP in the background?

Here is my card:


Yes, I chose to use some dotty DSP - this one is part of the Best Year Ever pack available for FREE during Saleabration. I love how fresh it looks and that it could easily work as some "sky" for a balloon or 2 :-)
It was such fun to team the new DSP and Balloon stamp and framelits with the much loved Hearts A Flutter stamp set that has been around a little longer. Some pink and silver hearts, and a little twine to connect the balloons with the word "you"and the card is ready to take flight!



Card stock: Strawberry Slush, Whisper White, Silver Glimmer 
Designer Series Paper: Best Year Ever
Inks: Pink Pirouette, Strawberry Slush
Stamps: Celebrate Today, Hearts A Flutter
Accessories: Big Shot, Balloon Framelits, Hearts a Flutter Framelits, Hello You Framelits, White Bakers Twine, Basic Rhinestones

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you have a moment to pop over to Just Add Ink to see the wonderful projects the Team have made to inspire you this week - and I look forward to seeing what you create for this challenge too :-)

Happy stamping until next time,

Jan
