Just Add Ink #594...Winners!

 

Hello everyone! 

It's time to announce our Top Pick & HM's for this weeks "Masking" challenge!

We had so many clever & creative masking technique projects this week, it was so much fun scrolling the gallery and popping over to your blogs to see just how you achieved your masked projects.
These challenges are always fun for the DT, as we often learn a new technique or an alternate way of using an old one!

Thanks to all that joined us and shared, we really do appreciate you playing at JAI. 

The design team have voted and this weeks "Top Pick" is Vicky with her beautiful clean & creative project!



Here is what some of the design team had to say...

Such a stunning use of masking! These gorgeous daffodils appear so bright against the soft wall it is like an illusion.

So soft and pretty!

Love the effect of the pencils on the mask and the daffodils, gorgeous!


Congratulations!
