Just Add Ink #770...Colour!

Happy Friday JAI friends!

We have a couple of things to share before we get on to this week's challenge!

We are making some changes here at Just Add Ink, changing things up with some fun new challenge concepts we are very much looking forward to sharing. 

We are also changing how we run here at Just Add Ink! Going forward, we are moving to fortnightly challenges commencing on the 10th of October, therefore there will be no challenge on the 3rd of October. 

Over the last month we have had three lovely guest designers Deb Horst, Jolanda Johnstone and Sandra Strobel. We have loved having them on board and seeing their fabulous projects, so a huge thank you ladies, for sharing with our Just Add Ink team and followers.

This week's challenge was suggested by Diane Barnes. We are sad to say that Diane is leaving us. She has been such a fabulous and valued team member and we will miss her input, creatively and behind the scenes with all things technology. Thanks so much for all of your hard work and help Diane and we appreciate you and wish you all the best.

Ok, so now on to this week's challenge! It's soft and pretty and as you can see by the design team and guest designers' projects, it can be used in a variety of themes and designs.

Here is what the Design Team have come up with this week to provide you with inspiration...
