This week at Just Add Ink we have a sketch from Mae to inspire us.
It was Hobart eisteddfod time again last week and my daughter got second place in her age group. Yay!!! She played so beautifully I almost cried!
Anyway I needed to make a Thank You card so I used the sketch and this is what I came up with.
I decided to use some of my Always dsp that I’ve been hoarding and colour her dress in pumpkin to match. I’ve had this paper a long time now but I still love it. It has a bit of a retro feel I think.
Ingredients :
Stamps : Violin Girl (MFT)
Card : choc chip, pumpkin, x-press it, always dsp (ret.)
Ink : memento black
Other : copics, rhinestones, choc chip ribbon (ret.)
Mae has given us a great sketch this week. I hope you’ll try it out and join us at JAI.
