Just Add Ink #306....Winners

Hello it's time to announce the Just Add Ink winner!

Thank you to everyone who entered our Just Add Sympathy challenge. Sympathy cards are some of the most challenging cards to make so to see so many beautiful and varied entries was really inspirational.  It wasn't easy to narrow down all the entries but in the end we agreed that this soft elegant floral design by Heather H was the winner!

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

Heather's choice of colours, image & sentiment seemed to perfectly combine to capture the warmth of a friends loving thoughts.

A beautifully soft and elegant card. I love that the flower is continued in muted tones on the background.

A gorgeous design and love her soft and beautiful bloom.

Congratulations!

Just Add Ink #306..."Just Add Sympathy"

Hello everyone and welcome to another Just Add Ink challenge.

Before we get into the challenge details, there is some news to share. One of our lovely design team members Jodene is leaving us..:0( Jodene has been a valued member of JAI for the past six years and her contributions both on a creative and personal level have been invaluable. 

She is one very talented lady, her colouring techniques are amazing and she will be missed by the team very much. 

Jodene, we wish you all the best and hope that if life permits you will return to the fold at some point in the future. Big, big hugs and Thank you from all of us. xxx

Ok, so tissues away and it's time to share our new challenge. This week Jan would like us to add "SYMPATHY" to our projects. Not a sentiment we enjoy creating for, but a necessity none the less. And it's always good to have these on hand rather than creating when needed, because none of us really feel inclined at those times..:0)
