If you are please come and say hello to the team who are there.

This week the challenge is a classic sketch from Narelle.


Here is what the Design Team have come up with this week to provide you with inspiration...but before you do the team want to say a big thanks to our April guest designer Chris Parker-Barnes. It's been a real pleasure to have her join us this month. Thanks Chris.

Just Add Ink #259..... Winners

Hello and welcome to the Just Add Ink winner's post.

I was thoroughly convinced after looking at all the entries we had for our Just Add Sequin challenge last week that everybody loves sequins!! They are so fun and sparkly and always look fabulous. So who couldn't love them! There were so many entries showcasing great ways to use them it was a real challenge for the design team to pick a winner but we settled on JayTeeZeHang this week for this beautiful floral shaker card.



Here's what some of the design team had to say..

This is such a gorgeous Mother's Day card with so many details - I just love the sequin shaker!

Love the double shaker, gold sparkle and beautiful rose theme.

Absolutely stunning! Beautiful flowers, love all the details, fantastic colours. Love this card!
