A Sad Farewell..

All of us on the Just Add Ink Team are like family so its with much sadness to announce that
Bronwyn Eastley

and Tania Gould will be stepping down as Team members effective immediately.
Bronwyn and Tania have been on the Just Add Ink Design Team with Chantell and I since the start of Just Add Ink Challenges which started in January 2010 and we are incredibly sad to see them go.

Im sure you will all agree that Bronwyn and Tania have been an inspiration to us all. They are both off to new ventures so look out for more inspiration on their blogs/online soon.


Heres a few of my faves from Tania and JAI over the past 2 years.

and some of my faves from Bronwyn..

We will miss both of your incredible talents on the JAI Blog but hope you will continue to play along with us when you can.

Thank you so much to Bronwyn for helping me with running of the Just Add Ink Blog and we wish you the best in your new exciting ventures.
Tania, your sense of humour will be sorely missed and we all will be stalking your blog for pics of your beautiful daughter.




And life goes on ..we will be announcing our new Design Team search on the 10th January!

JAI 96 Winners

Afternoon,

So, who is ready for Christmas???  Definately not me.  I'm not sure if I'm glad I've only got 8 days of actual work left or if that fact is going to send me over the edge.  Too much to do and too little time to do it in!

Thanks to everyone who participated in our CASE Tania challenge this week - it was so cool to see everyone's interpretation of Tania's beautiful cards.

In a tight one, it is Kezzy who is this week's winner with this awesome CASE of Tania's card

Congratulations!

JAI 96 - Just Add...Tania Gould!

One of the best compliments a stamper/papercrafter can have is that someone finds inspiration in their work and CASEs or uses them and their work as inspiration for a creative project of their own. Giving the CASEd person the appropriate credit and recognition of course!

So this week here at Just Add Ink we have set the challenge of being inspired by one of our own Design Team members...the very talented and lovely...Tania Gould! Tania makes some beautiful and detailed projects and we want to show you how she inspires the Design Team here at JAI. Then we want you to do just the same, show us how she inspires you, and create something by 'Just Adding...Tania Gould'! We hope you'll join in the fun.

Of course, Tania had to join in the fun and show us how she can CASE herself! LOL!
