JAI34 - A Colour Challenge!

Hi Inkers!

You might notice we're missing a Design Team girl this week - the fabulous Sarah Klass. Sadly Sarah has had to leave JAI due to bigger and better commitments *smile, wink*. So we would like to take this chance to say thanks Sarah for being a part of our team, and inspiring not only our readers but also the whole Stampin' world, week after week. On a cheerier note, thanks to the wonderful internet this is not 'goodbye'.

We have a beautiful, feminine colour combination for you this week inspired by spring - we hope you love it as much as we did! As always, we love seeing your creations and hope you'll play along.

Here's what our design team came up with to get you inspired...

JAI33 - A Sketch Challenge

Hi Inkers!
We loved seeing what you all came up with last week for our Just Add Material challenge - far out, you are all so amazing! Big pats on the back all round, girls!

We have a gorgeous little sketch for you this week, feel free to interpret it as you will, but remember the closer you are to the sketch, the better your changes of being a Top Pick on Thursday.

And I'll put this here because we're still deleting a lot of entries (and we hate doing that!):

Entries with 3 or more challenges listed against their creation will be deleted.

Here's our sketch ...

And here's what the DT girls have put together to get you inspired!

A Little More Material...

If you haven't come across it before, Shelli Gardner (co-founder and CEO of Stampin' Up!) runs a challenge on her blog called the So Shelli Creative Challenge and this month it's about using material! Seeing as we've just finished our challenge on Just Add Ink, I thought I'd let you know about it so you can link up your fabulous projects to Shelli's challenge!

Obviously Shelli's blog is centred around Stampin' Up!, but seeing as we don't have the Stampin' Up! fabric in Australia/New Zealand yet (fingers crossed!), we'll have to settle for using ribbon, stamping on fabric and using it in our Big Shots.

Anyway, just thought we'd let you know!

Just Add Ink #32 Top Picks

Wow! What a lot of fabulous entries we had this week! It was a real challenge picking our Top 5 - there were so many fantastic ideas for incorporating material!

In no particular order, here are our Top Picks...
