Just Add Ink #381 - Just Choose Two

Hello Crafty Friends,

Hope you are having a fabulous day. It's challenge time over at Just Add Ink and this weeks challenge is Just Add Two! One of my favourite JAI challenges!

I chose to use sequins and colouring. I love Tulle shaker cards as they are not bulky, which makes them fabulous for posting. They are also a lot less hassle to work with opposed to acetate sheets. 


The fabulous thing about Tulle Shaker cards compared to other shaker cards is the sequins are sandwiched quite tightly between the layers of Tulle. The benefit of this is that sequins are always showing even when held upright - they do not drop to the bottom. 



I have used my favourite stamp - Birthday Blooms for my colouring aspect of the card. Stamped in Archival Black ink and coloured using an Aqua Painter with Melon Mambo, Wild Wasabi and Daffodil Delight inks. The flower was fussy cut. 


The card front has been created with strips of Melon Mambo, Flirty Flamingo and Powder Pink. After adhering the strips to Whisper White card, it was embossed with the Hexagons EF. 

The Layering squares Thinlits were used to remove the centrepiece for the shaker window. On the reverse side of the card front - Tulle was added with double sided tape. Sequins were placed on top of the netting and then another layer of Tulle was adhered. To hide the mess, cover with a larger square of Whisper White before adhering to a Melon Mambo card base.
 
The sentiment from Floral Phrases was white heat embossed on black card and attached with a few mini dimensionals.
 
I loved this challenge, probably because I was creating a pink card, with colouring, two of my favourite items for a card. Be sure to check out the amazing creations the Design Team have shared using this weeks challenge. Why not join us and play along, you can submit your challenge card here.
 
Until next time, stay awesome
