Just Add Ink #247 - Just Add Love Blog Hop

Wow!  It feels like so long since I've been here...happy new year & happy Friday!

We Just Add Ink girls have had a fabulous long and restful break, and we're back today with a super special blog hop!  Christine has given us the challenge of 'adding love using a tag design'.

You will have hopped here from Rochelle's blog.  Stunning card huh?  There are 13 stops on our blog hop, and it's set up in a loop so it doesn't matter where you start.  All you need to do to follow along is click on the JAI blog hop button at the end of each post and you'll be taken to the next stop!  If you get stuck just head over to the JAI blog to find all the links.


I've gone with white on white - a favourite of mine, with a touch of black, silver and red.  I used a couple of the Love Story Project Life cards for my tag and sentiment, ooooh and those gorgeous little black sequins are from the matching accessory pack.  The pic doesn't show it well but the raised mat has been embossed with the PTI Linen & Canvas Impression Plate - it adds a nice subtle texture. I've also given the whole card a little spritz with some Champagne Shimmer Mist (now unfortunately retired - although I hoarded some because it is one of my MOST favourite items EVER).

We'd love you to join the blog hop challenge fun this week.  Here is the sketch if you find yourself with time to get crafty.  Remember you can make any project you like, so long as it features a tag!


Thanks for stopping by today, and thanks for all the lovely comments you take the time to leave me - you make my day, truly!  Click on the button below to visit the super talented and gorgeous Nikki.

  4. Ha I was wondering about the 'smitten' P - what a great idea to use PL cards. Love your clean white design (I would run screaming from all the white) but you've made it look very elegant - love that bright red heart too! xxx
