Happy Princess

 

Hi.  Yes it’s been a while but I have actually created something to show you!

Just Add Ink has had a little break too but we are back this week with a blog hop to celebrate our 100th challenge.

We are also giving away two prizes this week. One is for the winner of the challenge and there is also a prize for a lucky someone who leaves a comment on each JAI member’s blog.

Our 100th Challenge is to Just Add a Crown.

I bought this Little Princess set for my youngest daughter for Christmas and we spent a lovely crafty day last week stamping together.  It is a very cute set and was lots of fun for both of us to colour.

I used lots of dsp and lots of different subtle colours on this card, which is unusual for me, but it did turn out cute and my daughter loves it. I stamped the princess and frog on watercolour paper, coloured them with watercolour crayons and cut them out.  They also have dazzling diamonds on their crowns and the wand, but it’s a bit hard to see that in the photo. 

 

Ingredients :

Stamps : Little Princess

Card : pip, pink pirouette, white, baja, marina mist, subtles stack, watercolour paper

Ink : stazon, crumbcake

Other : big shot, scallop square die, square punch, subtle button, mat pack, white gel pen, circle punch, decorative trim die, watercolour crayons, dazzling diamonds

 

I hope you’ll play along with our challenge this week.
