Birthday Shopping for JAI #743



Happy Friday and welcome! It's been a busy week for many - with Stampin Up's Onstage event held last weekend bringing the latest catalogue, colour and online offerings to the world.  In the South Pacific, it was held in Brisbane, just a week after Cyclone Jack passed through Queensland.


This week at Just Add Ink we have this Clean and Sweet Sketch for you designed by Tristan.
Sketches are fabulous because you can use any theme and colour scheme and just drop the images in to meet the sketch design. Our design team had a lot of fun and you'll see a mix of current and even some sneak peeks of new product too. I do hope that you will pop on over the Just Add Ink blog to have a peek and that is also where you will find how to join in with the challenge!



For my card this week, I decided to put the three images for the circles, into a shopping trolley. 
The Attention Shoppers bundle is so fun and I initially thought I'd use three images from the set without the trolley...but in the end, they are coloured brightly against the neutral, silver of the trolley and the trolley does help with the story of the birthday card.

The colour scheme came from the 2024-2026 In Colour Paper Stack - and Shy Shamrock - with us just celebrating St Patrick's Day this week, it seemed the perfect background colour! 

And the white background has added texture thanks to the Cute Crochet EF. My mother used to crochet a lot and I am loving that it has become very popular again, especially with the Millenials and Gen Z'ers. And the sentiment was still on my desk from another project...



Thanks for popping by today. I hope that you can take a moment to pop by Just Add Ink and we'd love to see what you make with this week's fun sketch challenge.
