INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 21 -


Welcome everyone to our 21st Blog Hop. If you have just joined then don't forget to hop around everyone. If you hopped across from the delightful Marlene Goulder I am sure she has shown us a beautiful card. Don't forget to leave some words of love as it is Marlene's 100th Blog Post - Congratulations Marlene.
It was snowing last fortnight and it is again this weekend -  but at least the sun has peaked out thank goodness! Just wanted to say thank you to everyone that left comments on the last hop - they were greatly appreciated.
Now onto the sketch that Teneale has given us:


Now here is what I made. Am loving Watermelon Wonder ink, cardstock and ribbon which I have used on this card. Used the flower from the stamp set Butterfly Basics and coloured it with the markers and huffed on it to remoisten prior to stampin on the whisper white cardstock. Then used a Blender pen to apply a little more colour to the flowers and leaves. A strip from the Cherry on Top designer paperstack which is beautiful.

 When I used the Lucky Stars embossing folder I used the debossed (is that a word?) stars so that they sat inwards.A thin strip of watermelon wonder that I put under the tag. I changed from the sketch but still had the elements.

Hope you enjoyed my card, if you did let me know!

Thank you for joining us on our hop. 


Now it is onto the gorgeous Renee Lynch

I can't wait to see what she has done...



Tip when using Markers
When applying colour from the marker direct to the stamp always have marker at an angle so that you don't squash the nib of your marker.

INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 20 -

Hello and welcome everyone. You may have hopped across from the delightful Marlene Goulder and I can't wait to see what she has done this hop. You are in for a surprise this week as Teneale is giving away the Pretty Thankful stampset but to be included in the draw you have to leave a comment on everyone's blog. So join in and you maybe the lucky winner. Good luck everyone!Here is a pic of the stampset


Here is the sketch that Teneale has done

What to do with this sketch.....I did find it hard at first. I used the Kinda Eclectic stamp, I always try to show how to use a stamp set in a few different ways - it makes it so versatile. Used it with three of the new In colors and stamped off once the Tip Top Taupe and the Mint Macaron before stamping onto whisper white and the butterfly had to be Watermelon Wonder - lovin' that colour! The Designer Series Paper is from the Cherry On Top paper stack which I love. My apologies for my bad photo but snowing here and the light is very poor!

Open Sea

Hi Everyone. I wanted to try combining the Mojo Momday 404 - Tall and Skinny card with the current Just Add Ink #269 - Colour Combo

Here is the Mojo Monday 404 design
 and here is my design


I did find it hard to get the same balance with Tall and Skinny, will have to practise that one more.

Here is the Just Add Ink # 269 - Colour Combo

Thank you for stopping by
